Penida Dive Resort on Nusa Penida Island, Bali, Indonesia

On Nusa Penida Island in Bali, Indonesia, Penida Dive Resort offers excellent experiences above and below the water. The hotel has excellent food, free breakfast, and is within walking distance of several restaurants. The whole island can be explored in several half-day trips by motorbike or car—which we recommend due to the rough roads.

Kiti, the Dutch manager, ensures that everything is perfect on land, and “E” looks after everything at sea. After a satisfying breakfast—and a few subway handle photos—we suited up for diving along with several new diver friends from the hostel.

After “E” briefed us on the dives, we were excited to experience Manta Point and Labyrinth!

1. Manta Point

Manta Rays prefer divers over snorkelers because we move more slowly. Maximum depth would be 18 meters, with a total time of 50 minutes. Don’t chase Mantas if they approach you. There is a mild surge current up and down, so be aware of the rocks.

2. Labyrinth

A new dive location, Labyrinth, offers swim throughs & possible Manta Ray sightings.

The sea was very cold that day, but the photos, videos and experiences kept us warm. If you look closely at the photo of Dan diving with the yellow fins, you’ll see two Mantas playing in the distance!

If you’re looking for an excellent hotel and dive shop on Nusa Penida, Kiti at Penida Dive Resort will hook you up. Reservations are recommended as it’s a relatively unpopulated island and quality hotels and dive shops book quickly.

Hi, we’re Dan and Emille. We met at church in NYC in 2010 and in 2011 we were married in Central Park on the bow bridge. In the last 6 years of marriage we stopped paying NYC rent, and bought a place on the edge of Hoboken, NJ, with spectacular views of the NYC skyline, which has been really fulfilling for photography enthusiasts. We have been talking about having kids for the last 6 years, but the New York lifestyle would make it difficult as our families are in Florida and Brazil. So we sold our place and furniture, left some great jobs, and friends and decided to have travel the world before we have kids. We’re cultured, but not fancy. We've been to 21 countries, and would love to visit all of them. We try to experience things like the locals as much as possible.
