Daily Itinerary – Best of Bali 5-Day Diving Package

Dive into Bali’s most iconic underwater locations with this 5-day, 14-dive program.

From wrecks and walls to reefs and rays, every day is designed to offer variety, marine life, and adventure.

After morning pickup from your hotel or villa in South Bali, we’ll begin the adventure with a scenic 3.5-hour drive to Bali’s northwest coast. There, we’ll board a traditional outrigger boat to access Menjangan Island dive sites, one of Indonesia’s oldest marine protected areas.

  • Dive 1: Garden Eel Wall a stunning drop-off rich in coral and hundreds of garden eels in the sandy bottom.
  • Lunch: on Menjangan Island with panoramic views of Java’s volcanoes.
  • Dive 2: Bat Cave, dramatic wall with cracks, overhangs, and abundant reef life.
  • After diving: Check-in to our hotel in Pemuteran. Relax by the pool or enjoy dinner in your hotel or at a local seaside warung (not included).

Overnight in a quality hotel in Pemuteran, featuring air-conditioned rooms, hot water, and peaceful surroundings.

After breakfast, we check out of the hotel and take the road to Tulamben, located on Bali’s northeast coast (approx. 3-hour drive). This area is world-renowned for its easy shore dives and the famous USAT Liberty shipwreck.

  • First dive: USAT Liberty Wreck (morning)
    A must-dive in Bali. The Liberty Wreck lies just off the beach, accessible with a gentle shore entry. The dive begins on a sloping black sand bottom where we often spot macro life, before reaching the wreck itself. This 120-meter-long structure is home to schools of fish, vibrant coral growth, turtles, and sometimes barracuda or bumphead parrotfish.
  • Second dive: Tulamben Wall (Drop Off)
    This beautiful wall dive starts with an easy shore entry. The vertical reef is covered in soft corals and sponges, attracting reef fish, nudibranchs, lionfish, and more. It’s a great contrast to the Liberty Wreck and a favorite among photographers.
  • Third dive: Liberty Wreck (night dive)
    Return to the wreck after dark for a night dive full of surprises. Underwater torches reveal a completely different scene, with sleeping fish, crustaceans, and active nocturnal predators. One of the highlights of this Bali dive package.
  • Lunch: Enjoy lunch at the hotel restaurant facing the sea. You will have time to relax before your third dive.
  • Accommodation: Night at our selected hotel in Tulamben. All rooms have air conditioning, hot water, and are located close to the dive sites.
