Discover Scuba Diving Lembongan Course Structure
The best option is to do the learning and practice of the skills to go scuba diving the day before you go into the sea. The pool sessions normally start from 2 pm up to 4 pm, and they last around 1h30 to 2h. The next morning we will go take you for two dives and will be back around 1 pm to 3 pm. We highly recommend this schedule as it allows you to have extra time in the pool if you need to practice a bit more and a good night’s sleep as your confidence will be high after mastering the pool! On the next day, you can still leave to Bali main island on the last speed boats at 4.00 pm, after 2 amazing dives with Manta ray.
Sometimes due to late arrival to the island or other circumstances, you won’t be able to do the pool session practice the afternoon before. In these cases, we will try to do the pool session in the early morning. Be ready to have an early wake-up to enjoy the calmness of the pool training before the boat departure for 2 dives in the sea. The boat will be back around 2 pm to 3 pm meaning you can still leave to Bali mainland on the last speed boat at 4.00 pm. This option is not always available due to sea conditions and the pool sessions start around 7 am.
