Bali Dive Resort and Spa is located on the northeastern coast of Bali Island in Indonesia. Diving is possible all year round, however, the best conditions can be found during the “dry season” which runs from May to October. During this time, there is little rainfall, plenty of sunshine and great visibility. Whilst the “wet season” does bring more rain and humidity than the dry season, the rain tends to come in short bursts in the afternoon or night allowing for plenty of hours of sunshine and the off-peak benefit of fewer tourists.

Water temperatures vary depending on season and are typically between 27-30°c, however, the currents and the upswelling can bring cooler temperatures at short notice during the summer months.

Dives sites in Tulamben range from shallow dives in calm waters with depths of between 3 and 15m depth making them ideal for divers of all levels and abilities, to deeper dives of 40 - 70m for more experienced divers.

Average temperatures in Summer (May-October):
Air 27-30°c / Sea: 26-30°c

Average temperatures in Winter (November-April):
Air 26-29°c / Sea 26-30°c
