About Gili anyaran -Sunken Island
Gili Anyaran -Sunken Island is a boat-access submerged island between Gili Gede and Gili Layar in South Lombok. The shallow plateau shows itself at low tide, then terraces down across coral-covered shelves toward a deeper plateau. It works well as a calm-water snorkel or easy scuba site, with turtles and reef fish on the top and bigger life showing up as you move deeper. Plan it for the dry season and keep an eye on the tide, because the profile changes quickly as the water rises.
