We have had some great weeks at the end of April/ beginning of May. We were lucky enough to have a great educational talk on Corals, some excellent courses and of course - fab diving!
Coral Biology Talk
We were honored to have Beto who was diving with us for a few days come and present for us a talk about Coral Biology at Bali Dive Cove. His 1 hour presentation educated us and a few other guests about how coral grows, different types, what its made from and also the threats which are affecting corals and reefs worldwide. We also learnt about ways in which we can make small steps to help protect our Oceans and beautiful Corals - thanks Beto! He also got some fab underwater photos while Muck diving, with his Olympus TG5.
Rescue Diver Course
Congratulations to Iris on becoming a PADI Rescue Diver! Iris had already completed her CPR and First aid course back home in Germany and was eager to learn how to transfer those skills to the water. This 2 day course was certainly hard work but also very worth it!
Even from the first demonstrations, Iris was able to efficiently rescue tired and panicked divers both on the surface and underwater. We also spent a lot of time learning how to deliver effective rescue breaths to non breathing patients while bringing them into shore.
We hope that she will never have to use her rescue skills in real life but Iris is now a competent Rescue Diver!
Have a look here at what Iris had to say about her course.
Discover Scuba Divers
We have been thrilled to have so many people coming to the Cove to discover the beautiful underwater world! Congratulations to Felix, Michael, Clement, Karl, Christina, Serina, Jamie, Rich, Michael and Joe for completing your Discover Scuba Diving experiences with us! All of you took to scuba diving with great enthusiasm! We are sure we will see some of you again soon to complete your PADI Open Water Courses!
'Cannot speak highly enough of these guys and girls and wish them every success in life. Thanks for everything and I hope to be back again soon for my next dive experience!' - Rich Tripadvisor
'Upon recommandation of 2 people in our hotel we visit Bali dive cove. I was very scared in the beginning because is was my first time. The dive location was the US marine wreck. J made me very comfortable, because she first did an excellent briefing and took me by the hand. Step by step a lot further into the deep water. IT was amazing! I enjoyed extremely. The friendly smile of Iris makes us relax. Many thanks for this beautiful day and experience. You people are the best! - Tripadvisor
Refresher Course
We also had Madi coming through our doors, together with dive buddies Karl and Christina who were completing their Discover Scuba Diving program, Madi, who hadn't dived in a while took part in a Refresher course. All aspects of diving came back to her really fast and she enjoyed two wonderful dives on the Liberty Wreck.

Fun Divers
In the last weeks we saw Jack and Lauren, Prescilla, Tiffen, Beto and Dean who are all already certified divers who enjoyed some amazing dives around Amed and Tulamben.
Here are some of the fantastic pics taken by Beto on his Muck Dives.
'I went to Amed with no expectations and I found Bali Dive Cove as the best dive center I could spend my time with. Since the very beginning I felt a very nice vibe. The way the treat their guests is perfect! No rush, long dives and a lot of personal attention from the crew. You will really feel like another part of the team.
Regarding to the diving, the crew has a very deep knowledge of the dive sites and the surrounding marine life. They are incredibly good in spotting such a small creatures!! But what I probably appreciated the most was to have no rush even between the dives. If I have to go back to Amed I will totally repeat with Bali Dive Cove.
Thank you very much for everything guys!' - Beto, Tripadvisor
We have had a fantastic and busy couple of weeks and are super excited for the upcoming high season! Here is a Sunrise photo taken from the Beach right in front of Bali Dive Cove!
