Too many manta rays, possible mola mola and whaleshark sightings.. fast drift dives. Ugh 🙄 😉
Try them for yourself to see how BORING they are! 😂
We have shared a few time that we don’t agree with divers peeing in rental wetsuits. Our last post, we actually got some clashing responses including “this is crazy” and “this dive centre is trying to control people”.
Guys - do you want to use a wetsuit that someone peed in the day before? Really?
We don’t care if it sounds crazy to you - but if it’s a rental wetsuit, please no peeing in it. 😴
What do you think? We’re actually surprised by recent responses to be fair!
Tell us your dream, we’ll tell you the meaning of it 😂 Weird, wacky - you were breathing and talking without regulator in? We want to hear your weird dive dreams 😍
How do we know they’re not lying though 🤔 😝 has it ever happened to you, the other group saw the holy grail and you only saw 2 fish?
The ices delivers a different experience every dive, and each experience helps us grow - more patient, more hopeful, and more excited for the next adventure!
We dive EVERY day here - we hope you join us soon!
Are you allergic to fun… 🤨

Happy birthday to the one and only VIKI 🤍 Viki is the kind of dive professional this place is built around. Calm in a current. Sharp on a brief. The first one to spot the manta and the last one to leave the boat ready for tomorrow.
Wishing you a year filled with everything you give to everyone else 🌊 the patience, the laughter, the calm energy, the way you make everyone around you feel looked after. You deserve all of it back, and then some.
More mantas, more sunshine, more good days on the boat. We are so lucky to have you 🎉

We have a secret (that you may already know) but we’re giving you 10% off... or 20% off WITH your buddy together in total.
The PADI IDC begins on 11 June 2026, finishing up with your IE early July.
Your Course Director is one of the BEST in the business, teaching you not only to pass your exam - but how to make this career a lucrative one.
There’s a lot of talk about dive instructors ‘not earning enough to live’. But the thing is, being a dive instructor is a job - it is not a holiday. If you treat it like a ‘working holiday’ then sure, you might not be making a whole lot of money.
But if you WANT this career, really want it, and respect it as a PROFESSION, it rewards you beyond what you would assume.
Doing your IDC at Scuba Center Asia means you will have personal referrals to dive centres GLOBALLY. We have a huge network, and we help you go where you want to go. 100% of our IDC Graduates in 2025 are already working in their desired destination.
If you want it, you got it.
We can’t wait to meet you!
You think “have they ever worked a job?” But you also think “damn I wish that was me” 😂 go for your dreams! If that’s diving and travelling to Bali, DO IT
When diving at manta point, ensure your buoyancy is good. You don’t want to be touching the bottom (in general) but especially in a marine protected area - plus we have a lot of these cuties who won’t be so happy to be touched 😅
Mantas are likely to fly over the top of you too, so if you think you need it - we definitely recommend working on your buoyancy before diving in.
Have you considered the PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy specialty? It can definitely help you work on mastering the areas you’re struggling in with you buoyancy.
The mantas and the reef will thank you!
Divemaster Fabio goes through the hand signals of some other marine life you can see at Manta Point, Nusa Penida. These hand signals will help you understand what critters we are trying to show you! Do you do any of these marine life hand signals differently?
