Sorry don't know how good the snorkling is, but this coastal pocket is secluded, superb and unspoilt with views across to Lombok and back to Gunung Agung. Not many tourist facilities, it is mainly a salt industry area. Take what cash you need. The closest scuba diving operations are in Tulamben but the larger ones in Candidasa and south Bali do trips here. Most of the places to stay will rent snorkling gear to you, the coral reef is just offshore.
At a guess, it would take around 2-2.5 hrs from the airport and I would expect to pay around Rp100-150,000?
