I had the best time taking the padi advanced open waters license with Bali Diving Academy. They were very responsive in providing information and patient in answering any queries I have in planning the trip. When I arrived in Bali the transport arrangements from seminyak to tumbalen and sanur were seamless. They were also super efficient in the preparation of the dive gear/air tanks for the dives. I had the best instructors Imade and Marina. The dives were structured and they made sure to go review my knowledge before the dive. They very extremely familiar familiar the dive locaitons. They explained each dive and what to expect which helped with the nerves. During the actual dives, they were attentive, encouraging and supported me when I felt nervous. I'm much more confident about my dive skills thanks to Imade and Marina and will definitely be back! I highly recommend Bali Diving Academy for your dive certifications or fun dives! 🙂

Had a great experience doing my Padi Open Water Qualification. Made was fantastic and the dives with Sting Rays, US Liberty, tons of fish were amazing. The course was such good value. Really recommend this company.

We went om a snorkling trip at Nusa Penida with Julie and Hikal! We were also accompanied by two scuba divers which was very interesting. It was an amazing day! We saw two beautiful spots, had a local lunch on the boat and learned more about the sea. We would definitely come back and recommend this trip! Be sure to use A LOT of sunscreen 😉!

We have been diving with BDA in Pemuteran (Bali) and Nusa Lembongan. Both sites with owesome dives: pristine corals and manta rays in Nusa. Good boats, nice dive masters, all of them taking good care of our group all the time. Recommended and will no hesitate to repeat again with their friendly staff. 🙂

Highly recommended Bali Diving Academy!!! First time ever scuba diving and i felt extremely comfortably under the water thanks to our incredible instructor. If i ever go back to lembongan i will be heading straight back to your shop.

I would totally recommend Bali Lembongan dive academy!! Diego and Ivanna where absolutely amazing! I haven't been diving for 4 years and was a little nervous after having so many ear problems but these peeps had me do a refresher and in no time back in the ocean having a blast!! Ivanna was amazing seriously finding anything that I wanted to see and Diego was awesome for my last day diving!! Another thing crossed off my bucket list!! Wish I could stay longer!! But know where to come for next time!! The company were great too! Worked with me for an impromptu booking and had everything organized!! Thanks a million!!

My husband and I had a great time diving with the team at Bali Diving Academy. The team are friendly and professional, and very respectful of the sites and inhabitants of the sites in which they dive. We had an incredible dive with manta rays at Manta Point and a beautiful reef dive at Crystal Bay. Cannot recommend these guys enough!

Based on a friend's recommendation I decided to do my Open Water Diver with Bali Diving Academy and I was not dissappointed! When I sent in my request Kadex in the BDA office made me a great offer, taking into account my available time and flight times. Everything from airport transfer, boat to Lembongan to accommodation was included from the start so that I didn't have to worry about anything. Since I finished the theoretical part already at home via e-learning I could start immediately with the pool sessions after arriving in Lembongan. The course was just with one other diver so the interaction with our instructor Daniel was very easy and direct. With him we got through our skills demonstrations in no time so that during the open water dives on the next two days we could also enjoy the underwater world including the amazing manta rays! Daniel was also so kind to take my action cam on the second day and film so that I could get great memories recorded. I can wholeheartedly recommend Bali Diving Academy Lembongan to anyone who wants to take a PADI course or just for going for one dive while there.

I did 4 fun dives with them and had a great time. Very friendly and professional staff and they took me to some nice dive sites in Nusa Penida where I was lucky to spot some fishes and other marine life which I had not seen before. The highlight for me were the manta rays and the good vibes � Thank you guys! � I hope to see you again some day! If anybody visits Nusa Lembongan I can recommend this place!

I really couldn't have asked for a better first diving experience. The whole team at Bali Diving Academy (Pemuteran site) was very welcoming, super professional and the focus on safety was apparent throughout. As a first-time diver I had a little anxiety, but my fantastic instructor Edi made sure I felt safe at all times and could really enjoy the experience. The reef was beautiful and Edi was great at pointing out the different fish. The service and organisation of the trip was excellent as well, from lunch options to towel service and hotel reservations, Bali Diving Academy really thinks of everything. They also arranged the trip to Pemuteran from Sanur and the drive there with Agus, who was happy to show the sights we passed, was great. I already can't wait for my next trip with Bali Diving Academy.

Choosing where to do your DM is very important but I will never regret choosing BDA Divemaster and marine biology program. For starters, we were a small group which in my opinion makes learning much more efficient. Not only because they are an amazing group of professionals but also because during the 6-week program where not only, while integrating all the DM PROGRAM “to do” items you could focus on becoming the best diver version of yourself. But also thanks to the Marine Biology part of the course we gained key knowledge on how to safely work around corals and coral nurseries, at the same time as learning how to behave around grant mantas and how to disturb them as little as possible while studying them. Therefore, I’m sure participating in this program will open many doors in the near future. Thank you so much to our Instructors Pierre and Tom, for this was an experience I’ll never forget.
