So I’ve been to Bali twice and dived Nusa Penida and Tulamben for just a couple of days before heading out to Komodo each time. From what I reckon everywhere seems to be good for AOW divers up to 30m.
My friend recently got certified and with just 6 dives under the belt - is it worthwhile to go all the way to Bali for diving? I mean with the other expenses like flight tickets (typically ~500USD, add hotel expenses) is it going to be “best bang for the buck” or VFM? I had originally told her to cross at least 18-24 dives before doing the AOW. Should I just recommend she do AOW right away at Bali, in order to have a minimum satisfaction of diving sites like Liberty Wreck properly?
Or are there plenty of colourful dive sites good for just 18m dives?
