Taste of Bali Safari Tour
A Taste Of Bali Dive Safari Tour provides the diver with an opportunity to take a few days to indulge in two of Bali's premiere dive locations. The package commences with the three hour drive North upto Tulamben. Whilst the first half of the journey is spent escaping Balis developed Southern region, the second half is a visual delight. Beautiful views of Mount Agung, Balis biggest Volcano capture the imagination, and Terteganga provides the opportunity to photograph Bali's famous rice field terraces yourself. Just ask the driver to stop for a quick photo session! As you travel through the villages in the North you will discover a more traditional Bali.
Once at Tulamben, nestled at the foot of Mount Agung you have the opportunity to dive sites renowned by world class photographers as offering spectacular underwater life. This truly is a location with something for everyone. A stony shore entry slopes down to around 12 metres then quickly drops away. This shallow ledge is teeming with life. Octopus, cuttlefish, mantis shrimps, blue ribbon eels, an abundance of reef fish are all easy to find here – making the site not only great for divers but accompanying non-divers can also experience some of the wonders on show. The USAT Liberty Shipwreck lies up against the slope and so again can be seen by snorkellers. However, as it drops away to 30 meters its true character can only be experienced by divers. The wreck is safe and easy to dive and shelters huge amounts of fish. Schools of circling Jacks provide a surreal image and spotted stingrays dot the dark sand slopes. The Drop-Off further along the stony beach provides an opportunity for deeper diving. The wall is covered with corals and sponges. Reef fish cling to the wall and larger fish such as humphead parrot fish patrol the site. Sharks are regular visitors to the area and can be seen cruising in the gentle currents.
An overnight at Tulamben provides the opportunity to explore these sights and an optional night dive on the shallow house reef is highly recommended. Your accommodation is on the shoreline – allowing you to make the most of your time there and avoid additional travel times.
On completion of your second dive at day two, the scuba dive safari tour returns to Southern Bali and overnight in Sanur, enabling an early start the next morning for the Islands of Nusa Lembongan, Ceningan and Nusa Penida. The area offers beautiful and sometimes exhilarating diving. Known for its diverse coral life and strong currents, it offers the diver the opportunity for drift diving. Mola Mola or Oceanic Sunfish visit these sites from as early as July through to around October. It is believed that these two metre giants come to the reef for cleaning. There is an opportunity to see Manta Rays at the south-west part of Nusa Penida, called Manta Point divesite.
