Welcome to Jukung Dive Resort

About Jukung PADI 5 Star Dive Resort

Since 2004, we have helped divers explore the best of Bali, from the USAT Liberty Wreck in Amed to manta encounters and fast drift dives around Nusa Penida. We operate two relaxed resorts so you can stay close to the water, enjoy fun dives, and train on PADI courses from Discover Scuba through to Divemaster. Safety always comes first, with patient guides, small groups, clear briefings, and well maintained boats and rental gear.

In Amed, our Jukung Dive resort sits near calm bays and easy shore reef entries that are perfect for learning, relaxed fun dives, sunrise dives, and night dives. With direct access to the USAT Liberty Wreck, Jemeluk, Bunutan, Seraya Secrets, and more, Amed is ideal for beginners, training courses, and underwater macro photography in a peaceful setting.

In Nusa Penida, our island resort places you close to Manta Point, Crystal Bay, Toyapakeh, SD, and PED, with a beautiful infinity pool overlooking the ocean and Mt.Agung, an in-house Sky Penida Restaurant for sunset dinners, and Sky Penida Spa for relaxing post dive treatments. From warm shallow training sites to big blue days at Manta Point and Crystal Bay, we match each dive day to the conditions and to your experience.

Jukung Dive is a simple idea, stay and dive in Bali with genuine care. We also organise airport pickup/drop and smooth transfers between Amed and Nusa Penida, allowing you to explore our Bali dive packages and combine the best of both locations in one easy plan. Just book your tickets and we organise all the rest for you!

Two Resorts, One Dive Family

Our Amed Resort - Since 2004.

Our Jukung Dive Amed base is the first PADI 5 Star Dive Centre in the area and a friendly, family run resort that divers return to year after year. Located just steps from the water, it offers short transfers, relaxed shore entries, and calm bays that are ideal for learning, refreshing skills, and easy diving. From Amed, explore some of Bali’s most iconic dive sites including the USAT Liberty Wreck, Jemeluk Bay and Wall, Coral Garden, Bunutan drift, Amed Drop Off, Pyramid Reef, and Seraya Secrets, a favourite for macro lovers. All dives prioritise small groups, clear briefings, and well maintained equipment. Amed is perfectly suited for PADI Discover Scuba Diving, Open Water, and Advanced Open Water training, as well as photographers drawn to black sand critters and gentle conditions. Expect a warm welcome, family oriented service, and the comfort of a Bali dive resort built on experience, care, and community. Join the Jukung family and spend more time diving, and less time in transit.

Our Nusa Penida Resort

Our Nusa Penida resort places you close to world class dive sites including Manta Point, Crystal Bay, Toyapakeh, SD, and PED, the heart of scuba diving in Nusa Penida. Advance your skills with PADI Advanced Open Water, Deep, Drift, Nitrox, and other specialty courses, or enjoy guided fun dives with our experienced local team. After diving, relax at the ocean and Mt.Agung view infinity pool, enjoy sunset dining at Sky Penida Restaurant, and recover with post dive treatments at our own Sky Penida Spa. During mola mola season, we plan early morning dives at Crystal Bay when conditions allow, searching for this elusive deep water giant. Glide alongside manta rays at Manta Point and experience some of Bali’s most unforgettable underwater encounters. With safe boats, small groups, and smooth logistics between Amed and Nusa Penida, Jukung Dive makes it easy to create a seamless Bali dive safari that combines both coasts.

Meet Richard! Our Penida Dive Centre and Resort Manager

Richard is originally from Manado, North Sulawesi, and began his diving journey in 2016 while working at Critters at Lembeh Resort. He originally started on the office and operations side of the dive industry, but quickly fell in love with the underwater world and decided to pursue diving professionally, and has never looked back. Now managing our Nusa Penida dive centre, Richard combines strong operational experience with a genuine passion for diving and the marine environment. He is often the main point of contact for guests during their stay, helping to ensure everything runs smoothly both in and out of the water, from dive planning to accommodation and daily logistics. He loves the dramatic landscapes, healthy coral reefs, and exciting currents around Nusa Penida, as well as encounters with manta rays and mola mola, and for him every dive around the island still feels like a new adventure.

DAN Dive Accident Insurance

DAN, Divers Alert Network, is the world’s leading dive safety organisation, specialising in dive accident insurance and emergency medical assistance for scuba divers. Unlike standard travel insurance, DAN coverage is specifically designed for diving-related incidents, including hyperbaric treatment and emergency evacuation if required. DAN provides two types of dive accident insurance, depending on your diving experience and the length of your trip:

Long-term DAN insurance is recommended for certified divers and those who dive regularly. This option provides annual coverage for divers who plan to dive throughout the year.

Short-term DAN insurance is designed for holiday and first-time divers, including Discovery Scuba Diving experiences. This option provides temporary coverage for the duration of your trip.

We strongly recommend all divers have valid DAN dive accident insurance before diving with us. Please click the appropriate DAN image below to arrange either long-term or short-term coverage before your trip.

Where are Jukung Dive Bali located?

Jukung Dive Bali operates two boutique PADI 5-Star dive resorts in Bali, located in Amed on the east coast and Nusa Penida just off mainland Bali. Each location offers a unique diving environment, allowing guests to choose between calm coral reefs and wreck diving in Amed, or manta ray encounters and dramatic underwater landscapes in Nusa Penida. Many divers choose to dive with us at both locations during their trip.

Do I need previous diving experience to dive with Jukung Dive?

No previous diving experience is required. Jukung Dive welcomes complete beginners, certified divers, and those looking to continue their PADI dive training in Bali. If it’s your first time, our Discover Scuba Diving programs allow you to experience the underwater world safely and comfortably with a professional instructor by your side. Certified divers can enjoy guided fun dives, refresher dives, or advanced courses.


 

What marine life can I expect to see when diving in Bali?

Diving in Bali offers incredible biodiversity year-round. With Jukung Dive, you may encounter manta rays, sea turtles, reef sharks, schools of tropical fish, colourful coral reefs, and fascinating macro life. In Nusa Penida, divers may also experience seasonal sightings of the mola mola, while Amed is famous for its vibrant reefs and the USAT Liberty Shipwreck.

Is diving with Jukung Dive safe?

Yes. Diver safety is our highest priority. Jukung Dive operates strictly within PADI safety standards, using high-quality, well-maintained equipment and experienced local dive professionals. We keep group sizes small, carefully plan every dive based on conditions, and ensure each diver feels confident and supported both above and below the water.

Can you help organise dive packages?

Yes, we specialise in custom dive packages in Bali. Our team can organise flexible packages that include diving, accommodation at our resorts, PADI courses, snorkelling, and additional experiences such as spa treatments or island activities. Whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple, or in a group, we’re happy to tailor a package that suits your schedule, budget, and experience level.

What makes Jukung Dive different from other dive centres in Bali?

Jukung Dive is a family-run dive centre with over two decades of experience in Bali. We focus on personalised service, a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, and creating meaningful diving experiences rather than rushed schedules. Many of our guests describe Jukung Dive as feeling like a home away from home, where safety, quality, and genuine care come first.

How do I book a dive or course with Jukung Dive?

You can book your dives or PADI courses directly through our website, contact us via WhatsApp or email, or speak with our team once you arrive in Bali. During high season, we recommend booking in advance to secure your preferred dive dates, instructors, and accommodation.

Do you follow sustainable and eco-friendly diving practices?

Yes. Jukung Dive is committed to responsible and sustainable diving in Bali. We actively support marine conservation initiatives, work with organisations such as Green Fins, and educate divers on environmentally responsible behaviour. Our goal is to protect Bali’s reefs while offering unforgettable underwater experiences for future generations.
