Don a pressurised helmet and stroll the seabed 5 metres below the surface in Bali's water-sports capital — no diving certification needed — then board a glass-bottom boat to the Turtle Islands conservation sanctuary. The ultimate port-adjacent aquatic double-header.
What to expect
You descend a submerged platform in a specially engineered Kirby Morgan-style helmet that keeps your head completely dry while air is pumped continuously from above — no swimming ability required. Marine guides walk alongside you as you feed reef fish from your hand on the sandy seabed. Next, a traditional jukung carries you across turquoise shallows to the Turtle Island sanctuary, where rescued green and hawksbill turtles of every size are rehabilitated before release; you can hold a hatchling under keeper supervision. Back on shore, fresh coconut water and tropical fruit round off the morning.
Good to know
Sea-walking suits all fitness levels; minimum age typically 10 years. Not suitable for those with heart conditions or recent ear surgery. Book the combo package directly to guarantee both the sea-walk slot and the Turtle Island boat — they operate on timed rotations. Transfer from port is under 10 min.
