        Good diving
        I just finished my advanced open water course at diving indo and it went great! After studying for the theory we went to Padang Bai for the first 2 dives. We did 'Peak Pefromance Buoyancy' and 'Underwater Navigation', which of both went steadily. The day after we headed to Nusa Penida where we would practice 'Deep Dive', 'Drift Dive' and 'Boat Dive' which where fun to do and had a beautiful site to watch while practicing the underwater skills. The instructor was social, funny and kind. The explanation was given thoroughly and the guidance underwater was clear with much attention given. I'm happy I got to finish my advenced open water diver course at diving indo.

        Wonderful vacation on Bali with Diving Indo
        Amazing experience. The Diving Indo diving centre is very well organized in every aspect. Mariusz's good management of the base is visible. The first week in Bali we spent diving. The selection of dive sites, the staff, drivers, boat helmsmen and the divemaster Natalia deserves the highest distinction. Everything was on time, and the service staff and helmsmen always helped. We noticed the extraordinary care given to the diving equipment. Natalia deserves the highest recognition as a guide. Thanks to her, we had the opportunity to dive with wonderful underwater animals such as mola-mola and manta rays. It made an incredible impression. In the second week, we travelled, visiting the most interesting places in Bali, including wonderful temples, and at the end, we went to the Batur volcano to admire the sunrise. And here we also appreciate Diving Indo, because they organized trips and an expedition to the volcano. The selection of trips, drivers and guides was very successful. Finally, it must be added that the selection of hotels in Sanur and Ubud was excellent. Hotels with a very favourable price-quality ratio. We were extremely glad with the choice of hotels. The hotels were selected by the Diving Indo. In summary, Diving Indo is a great diving centre, worth recommending not only for diving but also for trips around Bali. Thank you for a wonderful two-week holiday. We wish you much success in the future.

        Great day diving with Divibg Indo
        I recently had an incredible diving experience with Diving Indo, a PADI 5-Star Dive Center in Sanur. The owner, Mario, ensured everything ran smoothly with a great boat and top-notch service. We encountered five Mola Mola and beautiful manta rays, making it an unforgettable day. Highly recommend for anyone seeking an ultimate diving adventure!

        BEAUTIFUL!!!!
        ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "An unforgettable day! The team was absolutely amazing, helping us overcome our fears with patience and kindness. The underwater world was breathtaking – we saw countless colorful corals, fish, and even turtles. But the true highlight was seeing 5 majestic manta rays swimming by. An experience we would definitely do again! Thank you for this incredible adventure!"

        Experienced and caring diving operator
        We had nice time with Diving Indo - in total 8 dives within 3 days. Experienced and well organized diving center, international staff, good diving guides, small groups and high quality diving equipment. Simply as a diving center should operate. They run also a decent guesthouse, located next to the center, so if you prefer not to get up very early, you may consider it as a place to stay.

        Advanced open water course
        I had a great time with diving indo. After a long time of no diving I had a refreshment course with Mario and then I attended the advanced open water course with Anna. They are both very professional and friendly. Always attentive to the fast changing conditions of the sea, I always felt safe and I learned a lot from Anna's advices. I did 5 dives in 2 days, they arranged pickup from the hotel and provided food and snacks during the day. I totalling recommend to dive with these guys if you are in south Bali. If you are in Bali scuba diving is a MUST. The corals are amazing, we also saw mantas, turtles, barracudas and all the cast of nemo.

        My Experience with Diving Indo!
        I had an incredible diving trip with Diving Indo to Nusa Penida! The staff was super helpful and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed, including food, towels, and water. The dive itself was amazing with crystal clear waters and perfect weather, where we spotted manta rays, a shark, four mola molas, and a school of huge barracudas. The atmosphere on the boat was fantastic, creating a fun and relaxed vibe for everyone. 10/10, I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone!

      Had a really cool day with the Diving Indo team. We had the pleasure to do snorkeling at the Crystal bay and Manta point with Budy. He was an awesome person: making sure we feel comfortable and see the most out of the fishes and Manta rays. Everything was perfect!

      Out of this world experience watching manta rays, they are mesmerising wonderful creatures!
      We had three stops in our trip (only two of us snorkelling, other 5 people were divers), first stop Crystal Bay where it was too choppy for snorkelling so we did give it a go but decided to get back on boat as there weren't many fish.
      Then set off to see manta rays and what an amazing experience it was! We've seen few of them gliding one by one near the cliff, they are huge but very peaceful.
      Third stop was Mangrove which is northeast of Nusa Lembongan and this was best snorkelling spot we tried in Bali. The coral is amazing and you'll see a wide variety of marine life, very much recommend this place as water is warmer there as well so you can snorkel for long time.
      Also, guys at Diving Indo provide you with wet suit on top of standard snorkel gear equipment which was really handy as waters got colder at Manta Bay and overall, if are doing 3 snorkelling stops at 1 hour each you get cold anyway so wet suit helped a lot.
      We had young lad snorkelling with us (sorry didn't get your name) and he was great, he looked after us very well - thank you!
      Just one piece of advise, if you are prone to sea sickness take motion sickness tablet straight away when it's offered to you at Diving Indo office (or take your own if you have it), sea can be very choppy and there are long boat rides between spots.

      We are glad you enjoyed your snorkelling experience with us and got to experience snorkelling with manta rays and the beautiful mangrove. The water temperature really depends on the season you come in. August to October tends to be colder in Nusa Penida thats why we always supply wetsuits. We are just lucky to have mantas all year round. Thank you for this very informative review, its very useful.

      Decent gear, good pre trip brief. Competent instructors, great lunch. Crew did a lot to assist those less confident in the water. Epic visibility at Crystal bay. Great day from pick up to drop off. Big ups to the captain who choose comfort of passengers and selected the appropriate speed, even though he could of sped across with the large twin engine arrangements.

      My husband wanted to do this trip, so reluctantly I agreed. Great pick up and once all paperwork (signing away all your rights!!!) and wetsuits sorted we were off.

      I unfortunately didn’t enjoy this trip and was very nervous - the boat ride out was very choppy (take the sickness tablet) and when we got to the Mantary point I couldn’t get in the water!!! The staff we great with me and I stayed on the boat while my husband snorkelled and saw Mantas!!!

      The guys were great, it was just me, but if this is your thing - they are a good group to use.

      We had a great day snorkeling at two locations around Nusa Penida. We were lucky enough to see the Manta Rays swimming around us, such a beautiful thing to see. We then snorkelled in shallower reef and saw many different types of fish, coral and even a turtle. We felt safe and comfortable during each snorkel with great instructions and guidance from the crew. Wonderful lunch and plenty of water and fruit provided. Great day out and would highly recommend!!

      We had an amazing experience! Our first time snorkeling and we were quite excited.
      The driver was punctual and very friendly! When we arrived at the office, everyone was kind and helped us to chose the right equipment.
      When we arrived at Manta Point, I acted like the beginner I was - jumping into the water, breathing the wrong way and got a large sip of seawater. Instantly, a guide was by my side and helped me to calm down. All the time in the water, the guides were really aware and took care of us. Felt safe all the time!
      We were so lucky we saw A LOT of Mantas! Just amazing! Our guides also made sure we don't miss anything.
      After this, we got to Crystal Bay. As I was a little nervous due to the high waves (which absolutely might be just my imagination), I stayed on the boat while my husband had a great time here as well and also saw 2 turtles.
      We want to thank the Team of Diving Indo for being patient, caring and helpful all the time.
      Totally recommend!

      We couldn’t be happier with our snorkel experience. The whole staff was terrific from the moment of our booking inquiry (which was easy via WhatsApp since I didn’t have cell phone service) to their shuttle service to, most importantly, the snorkeling
      Itself! Natalia was knowledgeable and a great guide to the whole experience! Randy looked out well for the group when we were in the water and made sure we didn’t miss it when the first mantas were coming our way. Seeing them was absolutely incredible and to be so close, wow. Amazing! The team kept us comfortable on the boat and provided towels, lots of fresh fruit, water, and a nice box lunch. We really enjoyed our time with them!
