The sun slices across a blue that feels endless as the speedboat cleaves the water toward Nusa Penida; spray bites your cheeks and the reef grows closer in the mind before it appears. Within an hour the boat drops anchor over a mosaic of hard coral and rubble, and the ocean takes on a different rhythm — currents nudging you along, mantas circling the cleaning stations like slow, graceful ships.
