If you want to check out the scuba diving on Bali's east coast then Padang Bay makes a great base, and Padang Bai Beach Resort is the place to stay. Set overlooking a working beach, is the Absolute Scuba dive shop and their resort which consists of a 2 storey row of rooms, overlooking a restaurant, swimming pool and a row of garden bungalows.

Rooms:22
Diving in: Bali - Padang Bay and the Gili Tepekong and Gili Mimpang
Dive type: Boat dives
Divers: Max. 16
Enriched air nitrox is available here
Padang Bai Beach Resort, Bali

Without being fancy, Padang Bai Resort is a comfortable and relaxing spot, ideally located to access the local dive sites of Blue Lagoon and the nearby Gilis: Tepekong and Mimpang. Guests tend to hang out by the poolside soaking up the sun and enjoying drinks from the poolside 'Buddha Bar'. There are a few other dining options along the beach road although many guests tend to dine from the resort's restaurant.

Operated by an English couple with a technical diving background, you can expect good safety standards, free nitrox and a great enthusiasm for the local Bali scuba diving. You will either use local junkungs or their fibreglass speedboat when doing your 2 dives a day, depending on the number of other divers. A few days here can sit well with short stays in either Tulamben or Lembongan or, with airport transfers included, a few days at Padang Bai Beach Resort could be your main focus for diving in Bali.
