Bali


Diving in Bali
Diving in Bali is quite easy to arrange. The Island is well prepared for diving and you'll find many shops in Sanur and Amed. Diving is possible year-round and you'll get to visit the most amazing spots on Bali and Nusa Penida. The diversity of fish species is impressive and every dive site offers an entirely different experience!
The Island offers all types of dives for different levels as well.
You can choose to stay on the Bali mainland at places like Sanur or Amed for example, or perhaps go to Nusa Penida and its surrounding islands. If choosing the Nusa Penida islands, I would recommend going to Nusa Lembongan, as most dive centers are located here.
The dive sites are also relatively close for the most part, as planning a day trip from Sanur to Nusa Penida can be expensive.

Staying in Bali
You can find LOTS of hotels, resorts, and hostels in Bali. I would suggest using < this link to book your stay > So you can search for your ideal place. I would recommend looking for Sanur, or else go north to Amed, Tulamben, or Lovina.

How to get there and around
To get to Bali you can just fly to Denpasar. It's relatively central on the Island and from here you can make your way anywhere you want.
You can usually arrange a transfer from your hotel or use a taxi service like "Grab or Gojek" which is cheaper most of the time.
You can easily rent a scooter everywhere pretty much. Going rates are 70.000 IDR per day and discounts are available for longer periods of renting.

Itinerary: 1 week
You will probably land in Denpasar. You can easily get a taxi, scooter, or transfer to Sanur. From Sanur or Denpasar, you could also head straight for Nusa Penida via booking a ferry here. When only having the 1 week here I would honestly recommend staying in Sanur. If you want to see Amed bay and Tulamben you'd best try to dive with Dune Atlantis Diving as they organize trips to those more remote places.
If you want to have a more island feel and dive into all locations on Nusa Penida, head straight to Nusa Penida, especially Nusa Lembongan
Stay here for 3-4 days and book your ferry to the Gili Islands.
Choose your favorite Gili Island. In short:
Trawangan: The largest island, and most busy but lots of opportunities for diving, parties, and accommodation.
Meno: The smallest and most quiet. No parties but a real laidback Island feel.
Air: A mix between the 2. Still pretty quiet.
Spend 3-4 days diving here before heading back to Bali.
Itinerary: 2 weeks
You will probably land in Denpasar. You can easily get a taxi, scooter, or transfer to Sanur. From Sanur or Denpasar, you could also head straight for Nusa Penida via booking a ferry here. When having 2 weeks here I would head straight to Nusa Penida, and start diving here! It's a beautiful island you can easily stay for a week! However, I would recommend staying here for 3-5 days and booking your ferry to the Gili Islands.

Spend 3-5 days diving here before heading back to Bali, Especially Amed & Tulamben. You can easily get a transfer straight to Amed harbor from the Gili islands for around 400.000IDR ($22,-) per person. Bigger groups will obviously lower the price significantly.
When in Amed you can spend your remaining days diving Amed bay, Tulamben, and perhaps even the Kubu wreck, before heading backing to Denpasar or perhaps 1 day Ubud which is always nice!
