    Very professional dive operator - highly recommend

    Bali Diving Academy managed the diving portion of the annual South Pacific Underwater Medicine Society (SPUMS) dive medicine conference for us (Diveplanit Travel) this year and they did an amazing job. 99 divers each day for 5 days, to 5 different dive sites, over 1000 tanks and incredible logistics to manage. The team managed this seamlessly. I managed to get out for a dive with them on the last day and I thoroughly enjoyed my time underwater with Mark! Very professional organisation - we will definitely be using them again for dive groups. Bravo Fabio, Mark and team!

    Response from the operator: Thank you Deborah! Managing such a big group was a great challenge and we’re thrilled everything went smoothly. It was a pleasure working with you and the SPUMS team, and we look forward to welcoming you and your divers again!

    Amazing Dive Programs in Penida and Tulamben

    We joined the fun dive programs of Penida and Tulamben, and they were both excellent and memorable. We saw many types of species, including manta rays, turtles, sharks, eels, octopus., etc., during the two trips.🦑🪼🦞🐡🐠🐟🦈 What impressed me the most was that I got so close to the turtle and even took photos with it in Penida. Another amazing memory was from Tulamben, the US Liberty Wreck is enomous and crossing through the wreck was exciting! I would say Bali Diving Academy is a five-star dive shop that is professional in guiding divers in the sea. They have various programs for divers, including license courses, fun dives, and night dives around Bali island. 👍If you wanna dive into the significant points/locations in Bali, just go for them. It will never disappoint you.🤗 Besides, the dive guides are friendly and patient; they can really guide you in having fun in the sea. In particular, Kenny is good at discovering sea creatures (such as the resting nursery sharks and the big eel) and took us on a wonderful visit to Penida. 🙏Made took time to introduce the wreck to us in Tulamben and provided us with an interesting adventure (by crossing through the wreck). ❤️ The next time I go to Bali, I will return to the dive shop again.🫶

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your great review! 🤿✨ We're so happy you had an amazing time diving in Penida and Tulamben and got to see manta rays, turtles, sharks, and more! 🦈🐢 Exploring the USAT Liberty Wreck is always a thrilling experience. Kenny and Made will be glad to hear your kind words! Looking forward to diving with you again in Bali! 🌊🐠

    Excellent diving

    Excellent diving. I have had 3 days diving with Bali Diving Academy and I can only say they have excellent throughout. I contacted them before I travelled and booked in. Great communication and arrived promptly for pick up every day. The driver was so good and friendly. All dive guides have been very informative and very safety conscious. Food provided between dives again has been excellent. Their equipment is well maintained. Would 100% recommend this company if you intend diving in Bali.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your amazing review! It is a real pleasure to hear that you loved your experience with us. We hope to see you again soon.

    Great team !

    Thanks Bali Diving Academy Sanur & Tulamben. I write this post to say special thanks to Jixjon , our driver who pick us up from our hotel ! It was a 2 .5hrs smooth and easy ride . He came to pick us up on time and we made it to tulamben with no fuss . I would also like give a million thanks to Putu & Sudetma , they are so professional and made our dives so memorable. My friend was a newly certified advanced open water diver , she was abit uncertain to visit the wreck but after a good and ensuring briefing from Putu, her stress was relieved . On the next day , we joined a bigger group and we encountered another amazing guide Sudetama, he was funny , relaxed and we absolute enjoy every moment underwater. Tulamben is really a must visit place especially can do a day trip . Great company ! Keep up the good work !

    Day Trip for certified divers - 2 or 3 Dives in Tulamben (pick up in South Bali): questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kuta.

    How much does Day Trip for certified divers - 2 or 3 Dives in Tulamben (pick up in South Bali) cost?

    +

    Prices start at $130 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kuta usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Day Trip for certified divers - 2 or 3 Dives in Tulamben (pick up in South Bali) take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kuta is not rushed.

    Is Day Trip for certified divers - 2 or 3 Dives in Tulamben (pick up in South Bali) worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kuta, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Day Trip for certified divers - 2 or 3 Dives in Tulamben (pick up in South Bali)?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Day Trip for certified divers - 2 or 3 Dives in Tulamben (pick up in South Bali) suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Day Trip for certified divers - 2 or 3 Dives in Tulamben (pick up in South Bali)?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kuta can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kuta and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Day Trip for certified divers - 2 or 3 Dives in Tulamben (pick up in South Bali) start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kuta within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Kuta?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Kuta experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ubud Private Tour Rice Terraces Temples Waterfalls., Ubud Private Tour: Waterfalls, Temple and Rice Terraces Swing, Discover The Best of Ubud: All-Inclusive and Private Guided Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Kuta?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Kuta?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Day Trip for certified divers - 2 or 3 Dives in Tulamben (pick up in South Bali)?
