Exceptional dives
I did 7 dives over 3 days with Bali Breizh Divers, Padang Bay, Nusa Penida and Tulamben, 3 exceptional days. Everything was perfect: logistics, transport, equipment, and of course a top-notch French-speaking team: welcoming, professional... Thanks to Yoann, Thibaud and Louis for these magnificent dives: Rays, turtles, shark, mola mola, dolphins and the USAT LIBERTY to finish. Just magnificent 🤩🤩
Response from the operator: Bonjour et merci beaucoup pour ce super retour ! Ravis que ces 7 plongées entre Padang Bay, Nusa Penida et Tulamben vous aient autant plu, avec de si belles rencontres (raies, tortues, requin, mola mola, dauphins et l'USAT Liberty en bouquet final 🤩). Nous sommes ravis que la logistique et l'organisation aient été à la hauteur pour rendre ces journées aussi fluides que mémorables. Nous transmettrons vos mots à Yoann, Thibaud et Louis, qui seront ravis ! Au plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau à bord. L'équipe Bali Breizh Divers

Incredible!!!
I dove for 2 days in Nusa Penida. 3 dives per day. The dives were all fantastic! Manta Point with the manta rays. Crystal Bay where we were lucky enough to see 2 Mola Mola at 35 meters. Ultra accommodating club. Top-notch team, logistics and organization at their best. A big thank you Thibaud for these incredible dives! Turtle, rays, snake, mola mola. Hard to do better! Kenavo Bali Breizh!
Response from the operator: Un grand merci Pierre, pour ce beau message ! Deux jours à Nusa Penida avec des Mola Mola à 35 mètres et les mantas à Manta Point, ce sont vraiment des souvenirs de plongée exceptionnels. Merci à vous d'avoir partagé ces moments avec nous, et je transmets vos mots à Thibaud, qui sera ravi. Kenavo et à bientôt pour de nouvelles aventures sous l'eau ! Nadège et l'équipe Bali Breizh Divers

Diving safari
2nd diving safari with Balibreizhdivers and still just as delighted with the dives. Very varied and interesting sites. From the smallest (pygmy seahorses, nudibranchs...) to the largest (ballet of manta rays at Nusa Penida). Thanks to Nadège, Guy, and all their staff for their professionalism, their good humor, and their kindness.
Response from the operator: Chère Emmanuelle, Merci beaucoup pour ce message, et quel plaisir de vous avoir eue à nouveau avec nous pour ce deuxième safari plongée ! Content que la diversité des sites vous ait plu, des hippocampes pygmées aux mantas de Nusa Penida, il y a toujours de belles surprises. Je transmets vos mots à Guy et à toute l'équipe. À bientôt pour de nouvelles plongées ! Nadège et l'équipe Bali Breizh Divers

A very good diving center... very competent.
A very nice team that listens with the seriousness and safety of a good club. Magical dives... manta rays on the menu from the first dive, a dream drift... complete support from Sanur, which is rare and very appreciated when you do not want to stay in Penida... Alain
Response from the operator: Merci Alain, pour votre retour d'expérience. Nous sommes ravis de vous avoir accompagné sur Nusa Penida.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kuta.
How much does Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point cost?
+
Prices start at $172 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 Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point 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 Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 19 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 Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point?
+
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 Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point 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 Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point?
+
Around 7 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 Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point 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., Best of Ubud Private and All-Inclusive 1-Day Tour, Bali Blue Lagoon Snorkeling - Lunch and Transport All Inclusive. 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 Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point?
+
Included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; Professional guide; Bottled water; Driver/guide; and Snacks. Not included: Souvenir photos (available to purchase); and Hotel pickup and drop-off (if the location is outside our pick up zone), surcharge for Can. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 3 listed pickup locations in and around Kuta. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time.
What languages is Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point offered in?
+
It is offered in English and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Scuba Diving in Nusa Penida Island and Manta Point?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
