About this tour
Start your underwater journey with a beginner-friendly scuba course in Tulamben, Bali. This seven-hour initiation pairs classroom fundamentals with two guided dives: first at Coral Garden in sheltered shallows to build technique and confidence, then at the USAT Liberty wreck (12m max depth). An instructor stays with you throughout, making it accessible even if you've never breathed underwater before.

What to expect
Expect a structured learning progression rather than a baptism-by-saltwater. You'll start with an instructor-led briefing, then enter shallow water at Coral Garden where you'll practise essential skills—breathing, equalising, hand signals—until you feel settled. Once confident, you'll explore the coral formations and reef life. After a lunch break at the dive centre, you'll head to the USAT Liberty, a sunken cargo ship that's become an artificial reef teeming with fish and corals. The wreck sits within recreational depth limits and remains fully explorable for beginners.
Good to know
Moderate fitness required; not suitable if pregnant, with spinal injuries, or poor cardiovascular health. Bring sun protection and a light layer; the water is warm but sun exposure is intense. Photos and videos cost extra. The dive centre has a restaurant on-site if you need meals between dives.
