Hello all,
My wife and I are going back to Indonesia for the 5th time in two years, we do like diving there.
We are arriving in Bali this time - a place where we've actually never dived - we were supposed to do so last year (Menjagan) but a volcano got in the way...
Our favorite places so far have been Raja Ampat (3 visits) and North Komodo - but the budget is too tight to make it back to Komodo this time, so Bali it will be.
I must say I'm a little apprehensive, as videos watched online make it seem very crowded, and wanted to ask for advice on places to check out for people more into fish than macro/coral.
I really don't think we'll be doing manta dives as we've seen a lot already and the molamola dives look a little too crowded for our taste. We'll be heading to Central Raja Ampat after this for a little "off season" diving like last August.
So I'm thinking of going to Lembongan, and maybe Tulamben / Amed as well. We'll probably have 7 to 10 days- and have already been to Bali twice on land.
What we're looking for is a relaxed place with nice diving, not too crowded - We're also thinking of doing a PADI rescue course if we can afford it.
Thanks for your help!
