There are several dive spots in Menjangan Island, all the dive sites offer varieties of landscapes and different underwater fauna, one of them is the garden eels spectacular dive spot. Currents at Menjangan island are weak to moderate, but sometimes there's some current in the channel, and that's the time when you have a chance to see some big pelagic, such as Tuna, and Sharks.
