Dive in Bali - Dynauld - 06-28-2005
It sounds like I will be heading to Bali this fall, I was wondering if anyone had some good contacts for local dive shops and or some sites that are better then others.

I hear the diving off Bali isn't the best. But there should be great diving nearby. Transport within Indonesia, even airfare, is really cheap. I spent about a month on Pulau Weh off Aceh province in Northern Sumatra. The diving was the best ocean diving I've seen. Though that is a long way from Bali, and I have no idea what damage the tsunami caused the reefs (or for that matter the topside infrastructure). On the Pacific side near Bali, I hear Northern Sulawesi is great diving. Gili islands are really close to Bali, and I hear they have good diving. Komodo is also nearby. I'm jealous. Maybe I'll head back this winter.
