Scuba Center Asia - Bali

Okay, let's talk about Scuba Center Asia, not so much a dive site itself, but your launching pad for some solid diving around Nusa Lembongan. You'll find a good mix of divers here, from those doing their first open water course to more seasoned folks heading out for fun dives. We've seen some impressive stuff on trips organised through them, particularly the mantas at Manta Point and the reef sharks further afield. It’s a PADI 5-star IDC resort, so if you're looking to advance your training or even go pro, the infrastructure is definitely there. We'd suggest checking current conditions if you're chasing specific encounters, as the currents around the Nusa islands can be quite spirited.
