We first visited Bali in 2015 and really enjoyed our diving and the vibrancy of the dive sites. At that time we started with visiting Tulanben, home to the Liberty wreck, and then moved down the coast to stay near Padangbai, where we did the main part of our diving, before heading inland to Pura Ganga to see a different side of the island.
On this holiday we decided that the focus would be a liveaboard trip in Komodo National Park. However, we would have a week first in Padangbai and get our dive legs back. See links to posts for our dives there
- the Jetty July 13 Jetty dive
- Nusa Penida July 14 Manta Point and Crystal Bay
- Amuk Bay July 15 Mimpang and Tepekong dives
- Tulanben July 16 Liberty wreck dive
After our trip to Flores and Komodo we spent a couple of days in Ubud, it has definitely become more cosmopolitan since our trip a couple of years back and one can see how tourism is really funding the town with many more smart shops and restaurants. Here is a link to some photos of the beautiful scenery and buildings from the rural hikes we did there
