Including all corners of Bali, you will dive all of the island's premier locations, staying in Sanur, Pemuteran, Amed and Candi Dasa, in carefully selected accommodation. Road transfers will often include visits to sites of natural or cultural interest with your guides on-hand to provide informative commentary. Diving is conducted from Abyss' own catamaran which moves around the island by sea as you are transported overland between each of the 4 different locations. You won't see other daytrippers diving from a better boat than this one. Accommodation is in 3 or 4 star resorts with typical facilities including swimming pool, free internet, air conditioning and en-suite bathrooms with hot water showers.
While on dive safari you will get to know your fellow guests, guides and boat crew better than any conventional resort stay. The staff members are always on hand to give you any assistance you may require. Experienced guides know the dive sites well and you can enjoy the additional flexibility that comes with Abyss having their own high-specification dive boat. With only 1 group of guests, you can be sure you will be visiting the best dive sites in the best possible conditions and the dives will be expertly guided.
The season for these Bali dive resort safari trips runs from mid-April to mid-October. From pick-up to drop-off at the Bali international airport, you know you will be in good hands; and in between times, diving all of the very best sites that the magical island of Bali has to offer.
