Bali tourist boat capsizes near Nusa Lembongan, all passengers rescued after dramatic scenes, footage emerges

There were dramatic scenes off the southeast coast of Bali on Wednesday when a tourist boat carrying dozens of passengers capsized near Nusa Lembongan.

The vessel, known as The Tanis, had just left Lembongan Village with 89 people on board, 77 foreigners and 12 Indonesian nationals, when it was struck by a wave from behind around 4.30pm local time and began taking on water.

Witnesses rushed to help as the boat tilted and passengers slid into the water. Rescue efforts ensured that all passengers were safely evacuated by 6.30pm, with no deaths or serious injuries reported.

Divers have since searched the sunken boat and seabed as a precaution to confirm no one was left behind.
