Scuba Diving in Bali & Lombok

We are incredible devotees of Indonesia and have secured a best's percentage plunging spots in the archipelago in the course of the most recent couple of years including north and south Sulawesi, Raja Ampat, Banda Sea, Kalimantan, Komodo and then some. Then again, we had not experienced quite a bit of scuba making the plunge Bali and Lombok direct which is the reason I went out there in July to figure out what it is about. The plunge destinations in Bali are gigantically shifted and this is the thing that I adored most about jumping around this island.

East Bali plunging

Next was a visit to an east's portion Bali jump resorts: Alam Anda in Amed, Siddhartha plunge resort and Scuba Seraya. My most loved of the three was Scuba Seraya, not on the grounds that it was the most lavish but rather on the grounds that the nearby jump aides were so educated and just before the resort is the plunge site Secret Seraya which is up there with a best's portion garbage jumping I have done. The east Bali jumping locales are totally not quite the same as those in the west and I was to a great degree energized by the destinations' nature, the majority of which are gotten to by shore passage. From the Liberty wreck in Tulamben which was just as great as I anticipated that it would be to divider jumps to the amazing grime plunging there is such a great amount on offer in this a piece of Bali.

Solid streams at southern Bali jump locales

Next on the rundown was jumping around the islands of Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembogan. Straight off the back of making the plunge north east Bali, there couldn't be all the more a differentiation. To great degree solid streams around these islands make it extremely progressed and invigorating plunging, also at the ideal time of year verging on ensured manta beams at Manta Point or the celebrated mola (sunfish) at Crystal Bay. One thing to note is that this jump site has extremely hazardous descending streams so this is material for exceptionally experienced jumpers. Tragically I was on the verge of excessively ahead of schedule in the season to see the enormous stuff - seems as though I will need to do a reversal once more!

Jumping Lombok was the best

My last stop was southern Lombok to investigate the jumping around the Secret Gilis and Belongas Bay. Again such fluctuated jumping which made the last stop of my outing so energizing! I was staying in the Secret Gilis at a resort called Pearl Beach Resort - it doesn't get substantially more excellent or remote than this. The resort is banded together with DiveZone Lombok who is the main gentlemen to jump with in this area and they plunge from the resort around the locale of Sekotong furthermore from Belongas where the entire move makes place. The Lombok plunging season around Belongas commences around August and if the conditions are correct you could wind up in the midst of educating hammerheads, barracuda, mobula and falcon beams, fish and different pelagics. Also totally mind blowing delicate coral. Making the plunge Lombok was probably the most energizing I have ever done.
