Baru di Bali

Do you have that spare day to discover the beauty of the warm tropical coral reefs that surround the Island of Bali? Well that’s all it takes to give you that first, unforgettable experience of scuba diving. Utilize that spare day and give scuba diving a try to see if it’s really for you. But be aware that it can be most addictive!

So, how do you start? Well, start by contacting one of the scuba diving companies and arrange a date for the one-day ‘PADI Discover Scuba Diving’ package. Make sure that you go for a qualified company that has all the licenses. This specific package is the world’s most popular introduction to scuba diving and averagely it only takes around an hour or two.

For your first dive with a PADI Dive Centre, there should be a PADI instructor assigned for every two people, to ensure your comfort and safety. The program lets you experience the thrill of diving in the safety of a pool. Some companies even add the experience of an open water adventure after you master the basics.

After the introduction you’ll probably know immediately if scuba diving is your thing and you will be heading home with a great new story to tell. If you want to continue your diving adventures (and most people do), contact the scuba diving company and with the first lesson you have taken, you can be credited towards the full Open Water qualification, to even become a qualified diver and get the freedom of diving without an instructor.
