Shark Point, Gili Trawangan

★★★★★ (34,494)

An excellent site for viewing larger marine life on the north side of Gili Trawangan. A flat sandy bottom turns into a series of progressively deeper canyons that run parallel to the shore. The Glen Nusa shipwreck is located at the northern part of the site in 28m of water.

Reef sharks are found basking in the canyons, cuttlefish, stingrays, and tons of turtles are found in the shallows.
