Dive Sites
Pemuteran Dive Sites - A Brief Description of some of the best.

All these dive sites are either shore dives or a 10-20 minute boat ride from our beach, so you can get plenty of dives and still have time to enjoy other activities or just relax on the beach during surface intervals. Being the first dive shop in Pemuteran, we scouted out most of the established local dive sites. We even have a few favorites that are still secret - sorry, can't say more about those on the web, but maybe we'll take you there!

The area has pretty well recovered from the effects of 1997-98's El Nino conditions. Progress has been good and the outlook for the future is even better. In fact, because coral "babies" are so colorful, the reef is looking quite spectacular and improving all the time. You may have heard of dynamite fishing and cyanide fishing in some parts of the world: as part of our effort to conserve the marine habitat, our local friends and we have helped to largely eliminate this kind of destruction where we are. All of our dive sites are protected by local marine patrols and a better understanding of the environment by the local fishermen.

Bali is at the edge of the greatest marine bio-diversity on earth. You will see this incredible diversity at our dive sites, where marine life ranges from occasional whale sharks and manta rays to beautiful nudibranches, flatworms, and glass shrimp. Hard and soft corals decorate the walls and seabed, and of course there are those famous clown fish with anemones swaying in the sea. Did we mention the sea fans, sponges, crinoids, tunicates, turtles, lobsters, cuttlefish, octopus, shrimp, crabs, jacks, leaf fish, seahorses, lionfish, pufferfish, sharks, rays, grouper, sweetlips, eels, pipefish, giant clams, surgeonfish, triggerfish, and wrasse? (Whatever's missing from the list is our mistake and is not that it does not live here.) Our seas are teeming with life: you'll see!
