Located in the Karangasem regency on the eastern coast of Bali, Amed Scuba sits in one of the island's most significant diving regions. The area is defined by its proximity to diverse marine ecosystems, ranging from the shallow reef flats of Amed to the more varied topography found near Tulamben and Nusa Penida.
The centre provides a base for divers looking to explore the local reefs and beyond. Whether you are looking to complete your initial certifications or seeking guided exploration of the local marine life, the focus remains on a local and authentic approach to diving.
The centre is a PADI affiliated school, providing instruction and guided dives for all experience levels. All instruction and guidance is conducted in English, making it accessible for international divers.
Safety and individual attention are central to the operation, with a strict ratio of no more than four divers per guide. This ensures that even in more varied conditions, your guide can maintain close contact with your buddy pair.
Beyond the water, the centre is integrated with the Aroma restaurant, where you can find Balinese coffee and fresh fruit after your dives. They can also assist with arranging the necessary medical examinations on Bali if required.
Amed Scuba offers a comprehensive curriculum of PADI courses. For those starting their journey, the Open Water Diver course provides the fundamental skills required to dive safely.
More advanced divers can progress through the Advanced Open Water Diver course or work towards professional credentials such as Divemaster. The centre is equipped to handle these training programmes with a focus on small group sizes.
A full range of rental kit is available on-site for those not travelling with their own equipment. This includes everything required for a complete dive setup.
For those looking to relax after a day in the water, the centre provides non-alcoholic drinks, snacks, and fruit. Transfers to the various dive sites are also included as part of the service.
