October - December 2025 Bali eNewsletter

Message from Annabel

On 18 September, we celebrated AquaMarine Diving – Bali’s 26th Anniversary! It’s an extra-ordinary thought that as owner-operator of AMD-B, I’ve spent longer living in Bali than I have back ‘home’ in the UK

So a big “Thank you!” goes out to you, AMD-B’s guests and (of course!) to my absolutely amazing team!
I could write at length about them but will confine myself to AquaMarine News 🙂

We have a Blog Post Celebrating 26 Years of AquaMarine Diving – Bali to celebrate.

Celebrating AMD-B’s anniversary means we’re also looking towards the end of the year. Our Christmas/New Year Special Offer and 2026 Low Season Special Offer (LSSO) are already online.

On the subject of Christmas (or any other time for gift-giving), a reminder that AMD-B Gift Vouchers are excellent gifts for friends, family, and colleagues. You can buy for a specific value or particular gift, eg: a PADI course, or Day Trip. Info@AquaMarineDiving.com to discuss.

The 2025 Mola-Mola (Ocean sunfish) Season is still very much on-going: We’re seeing them all around Nusa Penida (including 2 specific spots near Manta Point).
Over the next few months we expect to see them along the east coast of mainland Bali, specifically at Mimpang, Tepekong and (my personal favourite) Biaha outside Padangbai/Candidasa.

We are currently accepting applications for our 2026 11 Months ‘PADI Divemaster Internship for Indonesian Citizens’ Programme.
Application deadline: 31 October (details below).

Our two 2025 Interns, Hafid and Alfari, will be finishing with us at the end of November.
When asked, Alfari said he will continue developing his career in marine tourism as a dive professional while Hafid replied he would like to become a PADI Instructor and work as a Dive Guide with the goal of working in Diving Operations management.

I feel I’m writing as if we are at the end of the year – we’re not! There are still three more months you can come to dive Bali this year. If you need some inspiration, here is the list of AMD-B’s 2025 ‘International Days’ Specials.

But, if you can’t make it, then we look forward to welcoming you back to Bali and our phenomenal diving in 2026!

Blue Project by AMD-B: Divers as Ocean Guardians

10-Ways-to-Protect-the-UW

Protecting the ocean doesn’t always require grand gestures—sometimes, it’s the quiet, everyday choices that carry the deepest impact. Small acts like refusing single-use plastics, properly disposing of waste, or lending a hand at a local beach clean-up can ripple outwards in powerful ways.

Divers are not only witnesses to the ocean’s beauty—they are its protectors. Through initiatives like Dive Against Debris, they remove harmful rubbish from the sea floor and gather crucial data to support marine conservation. Each dive becomes an act of care, a promise to safeguard what lies beneath the surface.

These efforts matter. Every plastic bottle recovered, every bag left unused, every conscious decision to reuse instead of discard—it all adds up. And when individuals come together with a shared purpose, their small actions become a wave of change.

Together, we can help the ocean breathe a little easier.
