Between iconic wrecks (USAT Liberty, Boga Wreck), spectacular drop-offs, living coral reefs, and world-class muck diving on black volcanic sand, the Amed–Tulamben area offers an exceptional underwater diversity. Small groups, high-quality equipment, multilingual instructors, and a strong commitment to ethics and sustainability: at Bali Reef Divers, each dive is a carefully crafted experience, above and below the surface.

I completed my Open Water, Advanced Open Water, and Nitrox certifications at Bali Reef Divers—an absolutely fantastic and memorable experience. My instructor, Laurent, is highly experienced and incredibly welcoming. I did 10 dives with him, and before every single descent, he would say, "Then, I shall wish you a pleasant dive." He was also exceptionally meticulous—during night dives, he would carefully search through every patch of seaweed, turning over each leaf just to spot the tiny crabs that come out after dark. I highly recommend studying with him.

We did our open water padi course with Bali Reef Divers, Sari was our instructor and he was great, really funny and reassuring. Pierre was also accompanying doing his divemaster course and was also good. Would recommend doing your course with them. We stayed with them at puri wirata and did the package option with accommodation and course included, was super handy to have everything in one place. Also good location with restaurants around (besides the on location restaurant) and pharmacy and swim shop nearby. Free try diving dives in the pool from 2-4pm also if you stay with them.

I had a great Open Water Course with Laurent. He was very patient with me and teaches me all the basics of diving. I had much fun and can really recommend this dive center. Equipment was in perfect condition, coffee, tea, water, biscuits and towels are provided. The use the pool of Puri Wirata hotel for the pool sessions and we did 5 ocean dives. I had an amazing experience and would definitely come back to this dive center when I am around to do some fun dives with them.

I had the most amazing and unforgettable experience at Bali Reef Divers especially because of my instructor JuJu, she spotted so many organisms, was so patient, attentive, and shared so much knowledge at a comfortable pace. I highly recommend doing the open water course with her because I felt so at ease under water with her. She shared all these photos with me as well, I feel super lucky to do my OW with her. Thank you JuJu!

We recently dived for the first time and it was an incredible experience thanks to SARI and FARID. They took their time to make us feel relaxed and give us a clearly explanation. First try in a pool and then 2 ocean dives. They were always close to us and checked often if we were okay. It gave us a safe feeling so we could enjoy 100%. A very big thank you guys for your guidance and support!! Warm greetings from Belgium. Peter and Triswati
