Amed: Your dives will be centered around the reefs of Amed and Tulamben (East Bali) which have calmer waters with easy, swim out access from the shore. No boat required.

Nusa Ceningan: Classroom sessions on Nusa Ceningan, with short boat rides to dive around Nusa Ceningan and our Nusa Penida restoration site, hence the higher cost.
