About Sanur Channel

Sanur Channel is a short-boat dive site off Sanur with a sandy slope, a small coral reef, and scattered bommies that make it a common training and easy day-trip option. The site mixes shallow reef sections with useful macro life, so operators often use it for first dives, refresher work, and relaxed reef dives when tides are favorable.
