I saw the Temple Dive Shop while walking on the beach and decided to join them for diving (best deciscion i made in my holidays). I started with one fun dive but ended up doing 16 dives in total. After feeling comfortable while diving i even decided to do the deep dive speciality which i was a bit afraid of first. Thank you Marc for the fun course and your calm and relaxed attitude above the water and at 40 m depth :D
Everything is excellent at Temple Diving. The equipment is new and works flawlessly. The dive shop is perfect for chilling out before and after the dives. Most important the whole team of instructors, divemasters and the boat crew are proffesional, courteous and diligent.
The diving in Nusa Penida is awesome, beautiful corals and plenty of different fish just sometimes a "mild" current ;) I enjoyed all my dives in a small group (often just me and one of the divemasters). There is no rush to get in or out the water or dive with a maximum to 60 minutes: at Temple it's all about passion for diving. After the dives the diveguides took their time to explain everything you saw underwater.
A huge thank you to the whole Temple team for my amazing time while diving with you!

I've been diving in Indonesia every winter for 15 years and trust me this place is as good as they come.brilliant dive master who kept it fun but safe,really knowledgeable instructors who were happy to give lots of tips about various other things on the Ireland as well as diving and all top quality almost new equipment(none of my gear had a single mark on it and when you looked at there racks of wetsuits etc,everything else was in the same condition)
Because of the location and times of the dives I did both days we were back on shore by 2pm so still had my afternoons free to go exploring.
The dive school also employs a lot of Indonesian people who all speak good English so is employing local people which I think is important,,,gutted I have to leave tommorow after such a short time but know when I come back next year,these are the people I'm diving with.
I shopped around a little before booking my trip and they were even a little cheaper than most other places I looked.
If you want to dive in Penida,look no further than here!

Last 2 weeks me and my wife completed our PADI open water course here at Temple diving center. Everything was smooth and wonderful, they have amazing and helpful instructors. My decision to take ow here was very wise and after spending 4 days in Nusa Penida i realised that this dive center providing the best in everything from gears, boat and the dive shop were in brand new condition. Diving experience also very good i got to see a lot manta at manta point with them, my personal instructor danial even make a honeymoon sign board for me to have the best moment underwater with my wife. haha thank you guys! i will come back one day for another dive for sure.

I had the pleasure of diving with Prisil who arranged everything, but i mean everything. I came from Canggu and she arranged the boat transfer, the driver on the island, the best diving spots, the equipment, everything. It felt good to have such an experienced instructor around me. I would definitely recommend people to go to this diving center to experience the beauty of sea life.
The things that we were able to see: “Manta Ray, Sting ray, many sea turtles, an eel, a couple of sea horses etc.”

Suami dan saya mendapatkan pengalaman diving pertama yang luar biasa dan diluar dugaan bersama Temple Dive Center. Dive Instructor Daniel dan Dive Master Presil begitu detail mengajarkan diving skills baik di kelas, di pool, dan mengingatkan kembali tanpa lelah setiap kali setelah kami selesai melakukan penyelaman di laut. Dan surprisingly saya secara pribadi yang pernah mendapat trauma akan laut beberapa tahun lalu, dapat mengontrol diri saya dan berhasil keluar dari semua trauma akan laut. Both Daniel and Presil, they really put safety as top priority and everytime I am in the water, Presil always stays closely and attentively guide me until I feel comfortable to dive independently! ❤️ you are the best guys!!! and we are very lucky to have you! Tidak pernah terpikir sebelumnya untuk berani kembali ke laut dan berhasil mendapatkan sertifikat open water diving! We will certainly be back as we also miss family ambiance and fun experience with you guys and everyone at the Temple! All of our best wishes for Temple Dive Center! and we are now ready to explore more underwater beauty in this beautiful county Indonesia...

My girlfriend a I had an amazing adventure with Temple Diving at its team!
3 days of diving, 6 dives incl. a night diving, seeing 15+ mantas and drift diving. It was incredible.
The diving school, the boat and the equipment is brand new. The team - espacially our diving instructor Marc - is highly professional and trustworthy. We had a lot of fun. They know, what they are doing and they are taking care of their customers.
I can highly recommend to do your fun diving or your PADI diving courses with Temple Diving.
See you next time!

We have seen so many amazing animals like Mantars or Frogfishes during two Diving Sessions. Daniel my diving instructor is an amazing human being and very kompetent in his job!
2x Divings on Nusa Penida for 1290k Rp, let‘s go !! It‘s an amazing experience, that I’ll recommend to anyone!
Shout out to Temple Diving!

First class service. Instructors are amazing: Caitlin, Melissa, Kadek
Rent a go pro and go to the best spots. They spent time making sure I got videos loaded on the laptop, gave recommendations for spots to stay and restaurants. Smaller boat so less people and great operation! Made the best decisions based on conditions on where to dive - 10 / 10 will dive with them again!

We heard about Temple Diving Nusa Penida via recommendations from a friend - we were not disappointed! Temple has an awesome team of friendly and professional divermasters who made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. Their facilities and gear are in great condition too!
This was my first time scuba diving and the entire experience was breath-taking (not literally). We were instructed by their enthusiastic divemaster Marc; he had great energy and was an excellent teacher - heaps of knowledge matched with patience whilst I learned the ropes.
Finally the marine life was magical, I am now totally hooked and want more diving.
I would highly recommend this dive centre to anyone visiting Nusa Penida. Suitable for absolutely newbies (like myself), and verified pros!
Thank you again Temple for the amazing dives!!

I spent February 5th & 6th, 2020, with Temple Dive Centre completing the advanced open water course. It was a fantastic experience.
The staff were all very friendly and knowledgeable. Although I brought my own gear I observed that all the shop gear is brand new and really good quality. (Aqualung regs, BCs and wetsuits) the shop is also new and really nice. Boat was great and captain/crew was top notch.
I completed the course with instructor Mark who was great. He was very knowledgeable and patient, and also a great dive buddy for the 2 days and I was diving solo.
This shop knows diving and the area very well. They hold safety to high standard as well holding a very high regard for preservation of the natural underwater environment.
I was especially excited that we were able to get out for a night dive as part of my advanced open water course, that was a particularly memorable experience.
I would highly recommend diving with Temple!
Thanks again!

Hi Kyle!
Thanks for coming by to do your PADI Advanced course with us! It was a really nice course to teach and a nice exercise for us to work in PSI to suit your equipment. We were all equally excited to do the night dive and still have good memories of that dive!
All the best and until next time!
