Blue Lagoon
Shallow Padang Bai bay dive with easy access and rich fish life.
About Blue Lagoon
Blue Lagoon is Padang Bai's classic shallow reef-and-sand bay, known for easy access, bright water, and a broad mix of fish life close to shore. It is usually chosen as one of the area's most forgiving dives because the profile stays shallow, the route is simple, and the site works equally well for a first local scuba outing or a relaxed return dive.
