What to Expect

The sheltered coastlines near Mirage Island Resort and Bayu Lestari Island Resort provide calm swimming zones. Water temperatures remain warm year-round, and the absence of motorised watercraft allows swimmers to enjoy peaceful conditions. Children and non-swimmers can enjoy shallow areas with minimal concern.


Good to Know

Always swim in designated areas and supervise children. Avoid stepping on coral and be mindful of marine life. Morning or late afternoon offers the calmest water. Pair swimming with a beach walk for a fuller experience.
