Manta’s are amazing. Diving is great. - What a great day. Picked up at hotel. Nice ride to dive shop. Checked in and gear sorted. Then short ride to beach where you are taken by small boat out to dive boat then about 45 minutes to Manta point. First dive was amazing. So many Mantas. It’s pretty amazing. Second dive was on opposite side of island. Can’t remember name but very nice. A drift dive. The usual suspects. Turtle. Eels. Colorful fish. Third dive was further down. Current was coming from the east and the water temp dropped 5 degrees and was cold for the suit I was wearing. Nice dive just cold. lol. Overall a great day. Food was good. You get a reusable bottle of water to drink. If that’s not your style, bring your own, just a heads up. Captain and crew are great. Dive master was great. Showed us lots of stuff. Took video of me swimming with Manta. Was fantastic.

King Neptune would be proud of this operation! - My wife and I were on a cruise to Indonesia and had 2 days on a port stop in Bali. Indonesia diving is famous, so we scheduled 4 dives over 2 days with Neptune — 2 on Nusa Penida, and 2 on Padang Bai. Neptune was excellent, arranging our transport from and back to the cruise ship both days and all the details of the diving so as to make sure we got back on the boat in plenty of time. Dive guides were great— personable and very talented at finding interesting stuff underwater. I got some fabulous pix! And the level of service was better than we’re accustomed to seeing in other parts of the world . These guys prepare, load and unload all equipment for you! My wife and I are experienced divers, but we’re also not as young as we used to be (😉), so we appreciated the special attention which this crew was more than happy to provide! And the diving was fantastic! It was rainy season, so we didn’t expect great visibility, but it was much better than expected. Seeing the many mantas at Manta Point was one of the highlights of my decades of diving. And all the smaller stuff was extremely impressive as well. I highly recommend diving in Bali and especially with Neptune.

Snorkeling at Nusa Penida with Neptune Scuba diving - Neptune Scuba diving is a very professional centre, taking care of us in all the details. We were provided equipment and nice food. All the staff members were kind and supportive. Our guide, Gede, was very competent and made us feel safe at any moment. It was exciting to snorkel among the mantas, turtles and a wide variety of fishes and corals. Clorinda and Patrizia from Rime, Italy.

Great dive center- amazing experience - This dive shop is legit, I don’t doubt it’s the best dive shop in Bali. I had my own DM, dive briefings were thorough and clear, and I always knew what to expect. The lunch provided accommodated for my gluten allergy and was delicious. It was like we were at a resort, beautiful dive shop and pool, towels, snacks, Dramamine all provided. My DM was very capable and helped me out in a strong down current. Also, diving with the mantas was amazing. The site was crowded but each DM only had an individual or buddy pair so I never got lost and got a lot of great interactions with the mantas. My partner did the discover dive and got a solid pool session and very attentive help from his instructor. I would absolutely dive here next time I come to Bali.
