Any of the local fishermen will be happy to take you out, for a fee. You can go fishing (either bottom bashing or trolling) or just go sight-seeing along the coast or around the reef but I have not found anyone yet who will cross the line of the airport runway extension. I don't know why.
There is only one exit from the encircling reef at Tuban. It is about north north-west from the Kartika beach. It's usually marked by a stake wedged into the coral at the edge of the gap.
The boats are very stable and safe. Even when there appears to be a big surf rolling in over the reef there is only a gentle swell in the deeper water outside.
