Bali
I dove around Nusa Penida, a small island just under an hour boat ride from Bali. The diving was absolutely fantastic! I did the famous Manta Point. When we visited there were not so many boats around and the water was very clear. I counted like 6 mantas swimming around me at once. They were so beautiful and curious about our bubbles. The Manta Point dive site is all about the manta rays and otherwise, there is not much else to see. It is still completely worth diving there as you get some great close encounters with manta rays. We also went diving at some local reefs and visited dive sites like the Temple and Sental. The current was just perfect and not too strong so we could have a nice easy drift dive. I spotted several nudibranchs, triggerfish, napoleons, trumpet fish, and lots of other fish plus beautiful coral. Also, there were so many turtles just passing us constantly. And to make the dive even better, we saw dolphins from the boat on our way to de dive site and then again underwater while diving. I loved every moment and can recommend the destination to everybody.
