Recently we have had really great water conditions and sunny sunny days! We have been pleasantly busy and have made some new Videos!
Open water courses
We would like to start this weeks blog with a huge congratulations to our newest open water divers, Gabriele, Wenyi and David
Gabriele from Denmark has previously some snorkelling and was ready to take the next adventure! She signed up for the PADI Open Water Course with Instructor Jim to get her certification. They started out on the house reef just outside of the cove but after finding quite a bit of current they came back for an early lunch and then smashed all the skills later once the current had calmed down! The second day they enjoyed dives in Jemeluk bay where they put into practice all the skills they had learnt the day before. Then on the last day they woke up at the crack of dawn to enjoy the sunrise while descending down onto the USAT Liberty ship wreck! Congrats Gabriele, we can’t wait to have you back again!
I’ll be diving with them again This place is amazing, cool and totally chilled atmosphere and so are the people running this place. Also they are professional. All the gear is totally up to date, so is the education tool. Everything is included all you can drink water, juice and then there is lunch included as well. They take care of all, bring you to spots on places under the water. They know when to go to avoid the crowd of people.
I’m really happy that I extended my stay to get my open water PADI dive certificate at their place - ask for Jim (check diving with Jim): best instructor ever!
Wenyi and David had never tried diving but knew they wanted to become Open Water Divers!
They had completed the theory online before they arrived which saved them some time in the classroom. We started straight off on the house reef with the first confined session - they were really motivated and didn’t let the small issue of the mask get in their way! After a bit more practicing they were swimming around with no masks no problem! On day 2 and 3 they completed their open water dives in Jemeluk and on the Liberty. They came out of it looking like fab divers! David may even be returning very soon to do his advanced course!
Cam and Marc
Cam is already a certified diver but his friend Marc had never dived before so they headed it Jemeluk bay with wayan and Jim to take the plunge! For Marc, he started off in the shallow water practicing some skills while cam was being entertained by wayan, they then had 2 great fun dives in the Amed area. They enjoyed it so much that they came back the next day for more! This time they went to check out the Japanese ship wreck and Amed wall Marc is even thinking about completing his open water certification while he is still in Bali - good luck Marc!
Discover scuba diving
We had Marc and Shana from Switzerland taking part in their Discover Scuba diving experience. They had both dived before just a few weeks ago in Australia so this was going to be a great experience for them! We decided to take them to the USAT Liberty and we all enjoyed a fantastic days diving!
Amazing experience and lovely staff We wanted to go scuba diving in amed and chose this little company for our adventure and we sure didnt regret it. They were friendly and professional from the beginning on and we felt welcome all the time. Thanks again for all the great advices and the amazing day we could spend in amed and of course down at the wreck.
Snorkelling trip
On Friday we had Dharani and Karthik from India come all the way up from Nusa Dua to come and see what Amed had to offer! They had a great day with Gede and Tapik in Jemeluk bay working in snorkelling techniques and experiencing all the underwater fishies!! Thanks for joining us guys!
First timer snorkeling My husband and I are beginners in swimming and it was with quite some doubt that we set out on our first snorkeling adventure. We had nothing to fear. Our guides at Bali dive cove were very patient and thorough with their instructions. They checked all the equipments carefully and picked out our sizes. Everything worked liked magic. And the treasures underneath the sea in Amed - breathtaking corals and marine life. A lifetime experience. I felt blessed to have seen such a wonder. Our thanks to the entire team at Bali dive cove.
