Looking for suggestions for a Bali visit in May/June.
Previously, travel/dive trips have been solo, and diving the only priority. This time, my wife will be coming, so I have additional considerations... Diving is still the main priority, so that should dictate the areas, but my wife is not a diver so the accommodations need to be a bit above my solo requirements. Shes not into shopping, partying, or adventuring on her own, but would be quite happy with a nice pool, some yoga, massage, and just generally relaxing at a nice place. Her tastes infood are pretty tame, so I am also trying to work with that. There are limits to the budget and not looking to splurge (getting there is expensive enough!), but I'm not totally $$ focused either. We will do some topside sightseeing together in the afternoons.
We will probably stay 7-8 nights, split at 2 places. I definitely want to dive the Tulamben area,and was also looking at Padang Bai and Nusa Lembongan. Macro is #1, but definitely want to see mantas, reef life, etc.The main challenge is finding some places she will enjoy, because I have no doubt that Iwill have a great time diving!
Thanks for any suggestions.
