I did 2 days, 3 dives per day using EANx tanks at different locations throughout Tulamben dive sites. My dive master was absolutely excellent in terms of being attentive and professional as well as flexible changing dive site locations for me. Other than that, I thought the cost of 1.8 juta for 6 dives with EANx tanks was the cheapest anywhere..not just in Tulamben but anywhere in Bali or for that matter, anywhere in Indonesia.

Putu was my diving master, he did an amazing job of explaining in different diving spots, also took really good photos for me.
The communication between me and the dive shop was extremely smooth, replies were really quick and they give good flexibility in term of diving time. It’s perfect for u to do Lampuyang then diving here.
Highly recommended to all divers.

When life throws you opportunities to explore the deep blue, you just can't say no! That's exactly what happened when I stumbled upon Aqua Dive Paradise, a scuba diving company offering a remarkable experience in the northern part of Bali at Tulamben. Little did I know that my escapade with them would turn out to be a mesmerizing encounter with vibrant coral reefs and the historic USS Liberty shipwreck.
Aqua Dive Paradise deserves a massive round of applause for their outstanding service, professionalism, and safety precautions. From the moment I booked my dive, their warm and helpful staff made every step a breeze.
My dive master and guide, Komang, was nothing short of extraordinary. His dedication to safety, combined with his supportive nature, made for an exceptionally enjoyable dive experience. Komang's extensive knowledge of the area not only introduced us to the breathtaking marine life but also provided interesting tidbits about the storied history of the USS Liberty.
I must say, Komang's underwater photography skills would give even the most seasoned professionals a run for their money. His keen eye and knack for capturing the beauty of our surroundings left me with stunning photos that I will treasure forever.
As a first-timer to Bali's underwater paradise, I was initially concerned about my ability to see all of the iconic spots the dive sites had to offer. Komang, however, put my fears to rest with his patience and constant reassurance. By the end of the dive, I felt like I had grown a set of gills and fins, thanks to his guidance and support.
Aqua Dive Paradise and their amazing team have left me with memories that will last a lifetime. The entire experience, from beginning to end, was nothing short of delightful. They've set the bar so high that I fear I may have been spoiled for future diving adventures.
In summary, if you're planning to dive in the northern part of Bali, Aqua Dive Paradise should be at the top of your list. Their expertise, passion for marine life, and focus on safety make for a truly unforgettable underwater adventure. I would unreservedly recommend them to anyone seeking an extraordinary scuba diving experience in Tulamben. So, strap on your fins and prepare to dive into a world of wonder with Aqua Dive Paradise - I guarantee you won't be disappointed!

Booking with Aqua Dive was very easy by email, and flexible regarding dates and dive starting times. We were met at our nearby hotel on day one to walk over the the dive centre. We received a brief refresher as requested and the team could answer all of our questions regarding equipment safely. Komang was our divemaster and also our enthusastic underwater photographer - we had great fun and could not recommend him highly enough! Thank you so much for all of the fun photos. The dive sites are so beautiful and the shipwreck is very cool. The whole dive centre team interacted with us with good vibes and conversations. We also loved riding in the back of the truck to and from the shore dives. Thank you Aqua Dive - will return!

I was met with smiles every morning. The dive guides Komang and Wayan were meticulous in making sure you had a great diving experience. They could spot 0.5cm nudibranch a mile off. The equipment was well cared for and of a high standard. Safety conscious and well trained staff with smiles that stretch from ear to ear. I cannot wait to go back. The accommodation is clean, comfortable and simple. Breakfast is served by lovely young ladies, again with a lovely smile. The price is outstandingly good value. If you are not a certified diver, they offer PADI courses at a good price.

We had a wonderful experience with Aqua Dive! On the first day of our stay, our resort called them and they sent Alex to come and chat with us about our diving plans and arrange a pick up time, he then came and picked me up in the morning. They planned the days and dives around what we wanted to do rather than having a set schedule and time to fit into. We had 2 guides, Putu was patient and attentive whilst guiding my boyfriend on DSD whilst making the dives enjoyable for him. Coman was a great guide who was relaxed and easy going, as a divemaster myself it's great to have this attitude from another dive professional to enjoy the dives together. We both had one on one dive experiences from this fabulous shop, all of their staff went out of their way to make sure we enjoyed our time and were comfortable 😀

I recently completed my PADI Advanced Open Water Certification and two fun dives at Aqua Dive Paradise. Overall, it was a great experience and certainly a great value. I felt welcomed the whole time, all my questions were quickly addressed, and the diving was absolutely fantastic! My instructor, Yoggy, was both fun and informative. If your primary interest in Tulamben is to dive their many sights with great local insight, I definitely can recommend Aqua Dive Paradise!

We did two fun dives at the USAT Liberty and the drop wall and we're super super happy and satisfied with everything. Communication beforehand was easy and friendly, the staff and dive guide were super friendly and helpful. The dives were professionally organized, according to our level and we always felt safe and could fully focus on enjoying the view.
We were able to spot lots of stuff, e g. Octopus, electric clam, sea scorpion, ...
Everything around the dives was taken care of as well, snacks, beverages and lunch and also photographs.
Highly recommended to contact for dives in the area!

After a failed attempt of doing the Open Water dive with a different diving school, I have decided to try Aqua Dive Paradise.
At 7:40 in the morning I dropped Alex a message and after explaining him my situation, within minutes he organized something for me. Within 30 minutes I was doing my first dive in the pool with Putu, who was very patient with me. He managed to help me stay calm and relaxed and we did 2 dives (Shipwreck and Coral Gardeb).
I am very happy to have chosen this dive school and I can only recommend them. Thank you Alex & Putu!

Had an awesome time diving the Liberty Wreck site with my instructor Komang! He did a great job preparing and executing the dives and made great pictures and videos. Great people, good equipment and they included some food, fruit and drinks. Great experience and incredible value for money!

Do you guys do afternoon dives- is this recommended? Also looking to dive around the 20th July (near full moon) so what times are safe with less currents?

Hi there,
Looking to go for a dive. Do you do the US liberty and coral gardens in one dive? Are they close to each other?
How long do the dives last underwater, and do you cover transportation between Amed and tulamben?
Thanks!
Written May 19, 2019
Hi Jackie, They're pretty close, you could spend half an hour on each or you could quite easily spend a whole dive on each. I did a OW Course for my son there & we dived both areas twice but that included all of the skills. The Aqua Dive guys at Tulamben will pick you up from Amed for a small fee, they really are a great bunch, the boss is such a nice man. They'll drive you down to the 'beach' area & the porters charge pennies (you must pay them) to shift the dive gear from AD's van to the 'kitting up' area. I had 2 cylinders each, did a dive then chilled at the rest area for a few hours & then did a second dive (wreck then gardens day 1, followed by gardens then wreck day 2). Hope that helps

Hi, Scuba Friends. Looking to dive in March 2019: 1 Adult, 2 teenagers (13 & 15.) All are PADI certified. Looking for a dive with an instructor, not self guided. Would the Liberty Wreck be a good site for the teenagers? Do you provide transportation from Seminyak? What is the diver master to diver ratio? Are the dive masters good at helping teens acclimate with their ears?
Has anyone used this shop with children or teenagers? Thanks for the feedback!
Written January 20, 2019
Hi Grace827
We have availability to dive with you in march 2019 ( adult , 2 teenagers). Okay, we will offer you special good experience dive instructor / dive master who will take good care for all of you while diving.

A strange question. But I wanted to know what are your provisions for someone who can't swim at all? Can that person be taken on a dive? How much of the Liberty wreck will be safe to explore for someone who can't swim? Thank you! We will be reaching Bali on 25th midnight, one of us can't swim, and we would really like to do a dive. Please help out!
Written January 21, 2015
for someone who can,t swim , he can try an intro dive so before he dive ,we will explain basic diving theory and than we do practice some basic diving skill in the swimming pool ( including teaching how to swim )until he feel comfortable into the water. we will offer one good experience diving instructor for you guys only so our dive instructor will stay always side by side while you diving (or some time hold your hand in the water). we will take you max 5m to 8m for safety reason. (normally for intro dive allowed maximum 12m depth).
thank you
