Raziščite Seminyak
Seminyak se nahaja v središču turističnega središča Balija, kjer se ob široki peščeni plaži vrstijo hoteli in restavracije svetovnega razreda. Potapljanje v samem Seminyaku ni mogoče, saj ni potapljaških lokacij na morju, vendar potapljaški centri ponujajo potapljačem možnost, da se odpravijo globlje v Bali do številnih neverjetnih potapljaških lokacij.
Ob jugovzhodni obali odkrijte vrsto makroživosti na potapljaških lokacijah Padang Bai ali pa se s trajektom odpeljite do bližnjih otokov Nusa. Tukaj se lahko v hitrih tokovih potapljate skupaj z mantami in oceanskimi sončnimi ribami. Potapljaški operaterji v Seminyaku vas lahko odpeljejo tudi v Amed, kjer boste v črnem vulkanskem pesku iskali hobotnice ali pa se potopili v znameniti razbitini ladje Liberty v bližini Tulambena. Skočite na eno od številnih ladij za prenočevanje na Baliju in doživite vse na enem potovanju.

Najboljši meseci za potapljanje v Seminyaku
Najboljši čas za rezervacijo potapljanja v potapljaških centrih Seminyak je v prehodnem obdobju med deževno in sušno sezono, okoli aprila ali oktobra. V tem času je morje mirnejše in vetrovi so nežni, kar ustvarja najboljšo vidljivost. Če želite videti mola molo na otokih Nusa ali Padang Bai, se potopite v vode Balija med julijem in novembrom. Mante je mogoče opazovati vse leto na Nusa Penidi, vendar je najboljši čas od aprila do maja.
