Bali created this ‘8D/7N - 14 dives - Best of Bali Dive Safari 2011’ exactly as we would wish a “north coast” Safari to be created for us if we were visiting Bali as scuba-divers. The itinerary includes both shore- and boat-diving, and encompasses a wide variety of dives: walls, muck, reefs as well as Tulamben’s 120m USAT Liberty shipwreck, with opportunities for macro and wide-angle photography. Nothing has been included ‘for the sake of it’. At these sites you’ll see fantastic hard and soft corals, great density and diversity of marinelife. The pre-planned timing of dives ensures you’ll see the maximum possible with the best conditions (as far as we can predict conditions J ). Resorts have been chosen for ambience, location, facilities and value for money.
