Udforsk Seminyak
Seminyak ligger i centrum af Balis turistcentrum med hoteller og restauranter i verdensklasse langs den brede sandstrand. Det er ikke muligt at dykke i Seminyak, da der ikke er nogen dykkersteder ud for kysten, men dykkercentre tilbyder dykkere muligheden for at tage længere ind på Bali mod en række utrolige dykkersteder.
Langs den sydøstlige kystlinje kan du opdage en række makrodyr på Padang Bais dykkersteder, eller tage færgen til de nærliggende Nusa-øer. Her kan du dykke sammen med djævlerokker og solfisk i de stærke strømme. Dykkeroperatører i Seminyak kan også tage dig med til Amed, hvor du kan søge i sort vulkansk sand efter blæksprutte eller dykke ved det berømte Liberty Wreck i nærheden ved Tulamben. Hop ombord på en af Balis mange liveaboards og opleve det hele på én tur.

De bedste måneder at dykke i Seminyak
Det bedste tidspunkt at booke dykkertur i Seminyaks dykkercentre er i overgangsperioden mellem regn- og tørsæsonen, omkring april eller oktober. I denne periode er havet roligere, og vinden er mild, hvilket skaber den bedste sigtbarhed. For at se mola mola på Nusa-øerne eller Padang Bai, kan du dykke ned i Balis farvande mellem juli og november. Det er muligt at observere mantaer hele året rundt på Nusa Penida, men det bedste tidspunkt er fra april til maj.
