Hi Olivia
Yes we did stay on Lembongan so we just rang Scallywags to come and collect us and then drop us back to our Villa.
If you are going over for the day you can go with one of the cruise packages such as Balihai or Bounty. I dont know how much flexibility you have with them.
Another option is just catch the Scoot Fast Boat over from Sanur approx 500.000 Rp return. A number of time options to go over and return. They will also pick you up and drop you back at your hotel in Legian.I believe they also offer island tours etc.
I know you can also hire speed boats out of sanur as well if you dont ant the big tour boat type trip.
When you get to the island you can hire motor bikes and go around the island and also over to Cenigan via the suspension brigde. Well worth having a good look around the two islands. Also you can hire a local boat and boat man for 2/3 hrs and motor around the island then stop off at the snorkelling spots. Mangroves,The Wall, Gammit and Crystal Bays.
You can more than fill a day on the island. If you hired motor bikes you could take yourself out to Scallywags or if not confident on a bike you could take a bike and driver.
Also yuo could ring Scallywags and say you are coming over for the day and would like to have lunch and use the pool and they would pick you up from a designated spot I am sure.

Mushroom Bch is also nice for swimming and has a good restaurant called Lembongan Beach Bar and Grill.
If you go with the big cruise comaponies they have large water activity potoons anchored off the island . not my cup of tea but each to their own. If you are surfers you have a number of good surf breaks, Playgrounds,Shipwrecks,Lacerations and others around the island.
I love the island! Only arrived home today.
Have fun
