Take a boat from Nusa Dua or Tanjung Benoa to Serangan Island. The glass-bottom boats offer a chance to spot marine life on the way over, or you can cross via the bridge if you prefer. Once on the island, visit the local conservation houses where residents incubate turtle eggs in traditional structures before releasing the hatchlings onto the beach.
10:30
Walk to Na'as food court for lunch. This spot offers five food and drink options and provides a sunset view, making it a perfect place to rest and eat while the afternoon light begins to soften.
11:30
Return to the island's beaches to watch the turtles being released or simply enjoy the coastal atmosphere before heading back. Check the boat schedule for your return to Nusa Dua or Tanjung Benoa.
Local tip
The island is a conservation area. Please respect the local practices and do not disturb the turtle eggs or hatchlings.
