March 2026 in Bali: Nyepi Serenity & Exceptional Diving
March 2026 is a beautiful time to visit Bali, especially with the unique atmosphere surrounding Nyepi, the Balinese Day of Silence. On this special day, the entire island pauses—no traffic, no lights, no flights—creating an incredibly peaceful environment unlike anywhere else in the world. The days before Nyepi are filled with vibrant cultural rituals and colorful Ogoh-ogoh parades, while the day itself offers total stillness, perfect for reflection, relaxation, and enjoying Bali’s natural beauty at its purest.
For divers, March remains a great time to explore Bali’s underwater world. Calm conditions and warm water make sites like Amed and Tulamben ideal for relaxed reef dives and macro life encounters, while Nusa Penida continues to offer thrilling drift dives and chances to see large pelagic species. Dive operations usually plan schedules around Nyepi, so you can enjoy both the cultural experience and unforgettable underwater adventures in one memorable trip. 🌊

I had an absolutely incredible experience diving in Tulamben with Bali Celebes Dive. From the very first contact, the team was professional, welcoming, and extremely knowledgeable about the local dive sites. The guides were attentive, safety-focused, and also fun to be around, which made the whole trip even more enjoyable. It was clear that everyone here truly loves what they do and wants their guests to have the best possible diving experience. I left with unforgettable memories, a big smile, and a strong desire to come back. Without a doubt, one of the best dive operations I’ve ever been with! Highly recommended.
Excellent diving with Sammy, Mocco, Fian, and the team! We spent 2 days at Nusa Penida (and managed to see mola mola on 4 of the dives, and manta on 3 of them!) and 3 days muck and wreck diving in Tulamben with Bali Celebes Dive. All hotel booking, transport and diving logistics were handled professionaly and smoothly by the team, and we had the best time diving around different spots in Bali. Many of the crew members are also avid underwater photographers and took the extra mile to help us polish our uw phototaking skills. Best crew and we will definitely return for future diving trips!
Spent the last 7 awesome days diving with Bali Celebes Dive across Tulamben, Nusa Penida and Pahang Bay. The team is professional with logistics operations perfectly planned. The diving portion of the trip was excellent. They are able to cater to our diving capabilities to make it a fun and enjoyable experience. Highly recommended to any and everyone coming to Bali for diving. From massive Mola Mola, gigantic manta, exotic Rhinopias to the tiniest nudi, attached are some photos of the aquatic life the team has brought us to see. .
Been with Balicelebdive for the past 7 days to Nusa Penida and Tulamben. Their service was simply excellent, DMs are super helpful and very talented in terms of locating objects for photo shooting. We encountered Molamola for almost every dive in Nusa Penida, and was able to shoot photos of some exotic rare species of tiny marine lives, e.g. nudibranch, frog fish, etc. Pygmy seahorse was definitely one of the highlights. All in all we were very satisfied with Balicelebdive and will definitely dive with them when we return to Indonesia.
Sammy and his team is ABSOLUTELY amazing. We met Sammy and his team in Nusa Penida for Mola Mola and Manta rays. With Sammy’s experience and lead, our team encountered 6 Mola Molas in one dive. However, thats not the best part, i truly appreciate that this team prioritized our safety and paid close attention to all of us throughout the dive. Thank you Balis Celebes Dive for the best memories in Nusa.
I had an awesome experience with Bali Celebes Dive Center! The hospitality was top-notch, and their services are truly top-tier. If you’re coming to Bali for diving, this is the center to check out. Highly recommended!
