NUSA PENIDA DIVING – Questions and answers
The diving in Nusa Penida is excellent all year round, with warm water temperatures and great visibility. However, if you are hoping to see the famous Oceanic Sunfish (mola-mola), the best season is typically from July to October when the water is cooler. Encounters with the majestic manta ray are consistent throughout the year, making any time a good time for a memorable dive with us.
Absolutely! While Nusa Penida is famous for its thrilling currents, there are many beautiful dive sites that are perfect for beginners. Our expert instructors know exactly where to take you for a safe and unforgettable first experience. We recommend starting with our SSI Try Scuba Diving program, which includes mandatory training in our deep pool before you even enter the ocean.
Certified divers can expect some of the most exciting Nusa Penida diving experiences. Our daily trips focus on the island’s signature drift dives along the vibrant north coast reefs. We also regularly visit the famous cleaning stations in the south for incredible encounters with manta rays. Our dive groups are always small (max 4 divers per guide) to ensure a personal and safe experience.
Getting here is straightforward. First, take a taxi from the airport or your hotel to Sanur Harbour in Bali. From there, you can take a 40-minute fast boat directly to Nusa Penida. Alternatively, you can get to Penida from Kusamba Harbour, which will make a crossing just 25 minutes. We recommend booking your boat ticket in advance to secure your spot, especially during peak season. Once you arrive at the harbour in Nusa Penida, we are just a short taxi ride away.
As an owner-operated resort, our commitment to your experience is personal. We pride ourselves on maintaining the highest safety standards, running small dive groups, and providing an all-inclusive, transparent diving price with no hidden fees. Our custom-built dive boats, on-site training pool, and team of passionate, experienced instructors ensure your scuba diving adventure with us is a premium, hassle-free holiday from start to finish. We invite you to read our reviews and see what our guests say.
We did 2 pool session and 2 open water session, then ended with a coral reef dive. Very fun!
Big thanks to Lillian and Artur for the guidance!
You guys are doing a great job, and I’m so glad I found you in the first place.
Also, I feel incredibly lucky that you were the ones who taught me to dive — now I get to fully enjoy every single time I descend into the blue.
The dive center itself is beautifully maintained, well-organized, and offers excellent service. Everything felt professional and of high quality.
We had two dives that day. The weather conditions on the water weren’t the best, but the team handled everything smoothly and calmly, which made me feel safe and supported. My dive guide Abdul was skilled, attentive, and a pleasure to interact with — a truly qualified and grounded professional.
❗️That said, there was one significant issue that affected the overall atmosphere on the boat. Another instructor, Budi (an Indonesian man), created a lot of discomfort for everyone.
He seemed to have no awareness or regard for how his behavior impacted the clients around him. Constant loud laughing, shouting, singing, drawing attention to himself, and encouraging the crew to do the same — it felt overwhelming and extremely intrusive. His presence dominated the space in a way that made it hard to enjoy the natural beauty of the dive trip or relax among other guests.
This is something I hope the management seriously considers.
Please speak with Budi about how disruptive and inappropriate this behavior is. A dive experience, especially in such a beautiful setting, should be peaceful, respectful, and focused on the underwater world — not overshadowed by one individual’s need for constant attention.
Thank you for the great service otherwise, and I truly hope this feedback can help improve the experience for future divers.
