Some of the most iconic species which inhabit Bali and the Komodo Islands can be spotted all-year-round. No matter when you book your Aqua Blu expedition, there’s a good chance that you will be able to encounter Komodo dragons and swim with whale sharks.

 

Other animals may wade in and out of the region depending on the time of the year. 

 

The months between April to June are when the Manta ray population is at its peak in the waters surrounding the Komodo Islands. Rays start migrating in July and don’t tend to return until November.

 

July and August offer some of the best underwater visibility, making them the ideal months to snorkel and dive alongside reef fish. 

 

Finally, September offers the rare opportunity to spot sperm whales in the ocean, however, these sightings involve a fair bit of luck.
