Truly
a
5*
dive
centre.
Located
in
Amed
Beach
(2.5
hours
north
east
from
DPS
airport),
Amed
is
a
very
relaxed
beach
town
with
a
range
of
accom
and
food
options
(the
town
is
less
developed
than
other
parts
of
Bali
so
expect
more
laid
back
options)
Amed
is
known
for
its
diving,
and
is
suitable
for
beginners
and
advanced
alike.
Plenty
of
coral
reefs
and
famous
wrecks
are
accessible
from
here.
We
spoke
with
a
few
dive
shops
once
we
landed
and
ended
up
choosing
Abyss
for
a
few
reasons:
-
As
one
of
the
bigger
shops,
they
offered
more
flexibility
during
low
season
(January)
in
terms
of
available
dive
sites
and
pairing
up
different
diver
levels
(my
friend
wanted
to
do
Open
Water,
I
wanted
advanced
fun
dives)
-
Super
friendly,
professional
set
up.
Modern
dive
shop
with
well
maintained
gear.
Tom,
the
French
owner,
and
all
the
crew
who
we
dived
with
were
amazing
(Ketut,
Balik,
Jentol,
Hector)
plus
everyone
else
who
helped
(too
many
to
name,
but
many
great
drivers,
helpers,
thank
you!)
-
Full
service.
They
provide
pick
ups,
tea
and
snacks
in
between
dives,
all
gear
rental,
and
complimentary
video
of
your
dives
(the
vids
are
great)
-
Great
instructor
to
diver
ratio.
At
most
2
divers
per
instructor.
A
few
of
my
dives
was
1:1
Thanks
again
for
a
great
3
days,
look
forward
to
returning!
Prices
are
probably
more
premium
for
the
area
(IDR
~1M
total
for
two
dives
in
Jan
2023,
e.g.
AUD100
or
USD65
per
day)
but
well
priced
on
international
standard,
and
completely
fair
given
the
instructor
ratio
and
experience!
Aside:
we
stayed
at
Salt
Resort
about
10
min
walk
down
the
road,
really
enjoyed
the
stay
there,
can
recommend
Thanks!!
