We're experienced divers that have never been to Bali. We're hoping to dive at least 3 times during our trip Nov 14 - Dec 1 2014.
Weather / Viz / Silt: We've read mixed info about the impact of rain and cool water temps mid-late November. (We're from Florida, USA so we're not worried about humidity.)
Does the rain cause much trouble with diving and other island activities that time of year?
In November, is getting to dive sites problematic and does the viz drops precipitously because of rain. Are there sites to avoid this time of year?
Transport to Dive Sites: We are also surfers and into temples, art and ceremonial Bali. Should we split our stay among a number of cites to accommodate diving? Or, day trip on dive days?
We read on scubaboard that many boats are based in Pandangbai, Candidasa and Amipura area. If we stay on that side, how long would it take to get to Tulamemben, Gillis and Nusa Pendida? How long does it take to get all the way to Pulau Menjangan?
If we stayed in a more central area (like Ubud, for example) how much additional time does that add to ground travel?
How much longer from the southern coast/peninsula?
Thank you, thank you!!
