“Wonderful Experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed May 4, 2012

With promise of clear water through which you can see, I decided to take the another step in conquering my fear of water by going on a day trip of snorkeling in clear water.

Dear Joerg, Thank you very much for your posting. We are well aware of the fact that the specific Italian Guest did try to take not only some mussels, bust also shells. You should get your facts right though before you post something like this. The client was a free diver, and after that experience he has been: 1) Forced... More

“Fantastic guide, fun day!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 15, 2012

This is a great little dive shop, located right next to the Taman Sari hotel. It had been recommended to us by a friend, and sure enough, we had a great experience. The shop is managed by two very friendly Australians, who made us feel comfortable and excited right away. All of our equipment was provided and in very good... More

Bali Diving Academy is on the grounds of Taman Sari. We took them twice to Menjagan Island and were satisfied. If you ask at the front desk, they will send you to other town to catch a ride. You may save a dollar or two but it is not worth it. You will pick up the Bali Diving Academy boat... More
