What To Expect

DAY 1

Transfer

A driver Of Ostina transport company will pick you up at the appointed time to take you to the port of Padang Bay. It is necessary to wait for him at the entrance to the villa or at the reception of the hotel.

In the port, you need to find the office of the Ostina boat company and check in for your flight. Save your ticket for the entire duration of the trip, because you will need it to check in for the return flight.

09:30 – departure from the port. The journey to the island of Gili Air by speed boat will take about 2.5 hours.

The main program

Upon arrival at Gili Air Island, you will be met by a transfer (horse-drawn carriage) and representative from the Tipsea Turtle Gili Air Hotel with a sign "Mybalitrips" and taken to the hotel. Upon arrival at the hotel, it is necessary to contact the dive center to fill out a medical questionnaire (the dive center is located on the territory of the hotel).

After checking in, you will have free time: rent a bike or SUP to explore the island or enjoy the sunset right in the ocean.

DAY 2

After breakfast and free time, around 12:00 you will have a training session in the pool and preparation for diving in the ocean. Before the start of the lesson, you will have a briefing on the theoretical part.

At 13:30 you will have your dive in the ocean with an instructor. The maximum depth for this program is 12 meters, but everything is individual according to the comfort level of the student.

You will have free time in the evening.

DAY 3

We recommend waking up early to meet the dawn and have breakfast at the hotel.

At 10:45 you need to check in for the return flight at the Ostina office. On the way back, boat delays are not uncommon, therefore, in order to make waiting on the beach comfortable, it is better to have hats and water with you.

Upon arrival at the port of Padang Bay, you need to go to the ticket office of the boat company, where they will tell you how to find a group transfer to your area. The arrival time depends on the distance and the situation on the roads.

  • diving spots are chosen at the discretion of the instructor, depending on weather conditions and the preparedness of participants;

  • the return transfer is more complicated in terms of organization and can take about 4-5 hours. Travel time depends on traffic on the roads, boat delays and the remoteness of your hotel;
