    ¡Una experiencia de 10! Hicimos el curso Advanced Open Water con Pol y no podríamos estar más contentos. Es un instructor increíble: profesional, paciente, muy atento y hace que te sientas seguro y disfrutes cada inmersión al máximo. Además, durante nuestra estancia nos pusimos enfermos y tuvimos que cambiar varios días del curso. Fueron súper comprensivos y nos facilitaron todo sin ningún problema, adaptándose a nuestra situación en todo momento. Se agradece muchísimo encontrar un equipo tan humano y flexible. Todo estuvo perfectamente organizado, el material en muy buen estado y el ambiente fue genial desde el primer momento. Sin duda, volveríamos a elegir este centro y a bucear con Pol. ¡Muchísimas gracias por todo!

    100% recomendable. Nos lo pusieron facilísimo desde el momento en el que les contactamos. Los packs que ofrecen están genial, y el alojamiento que ofrecen es super recomendable tanto para dormir como para comer. Fuimos para hacer dos inmersiones pero al final alargamos a 3. El Liberty Wreck es chulísimo de ver pero las otras dos inmersiones (Drop Off y Pyramids) no se quedan atrás. Las tres inmersiones estuvieron genial. Adriana es encantadora y super profesional, interesándose por que viésemos lo máximo posible en cada inmersión. Ha sido una experiencia brutal viendo entre muchos otros: rayas de puntos azules, tortugas y unos cuantos babies de pez caja, pez ángel y hasta de tiburón de punta blanca!

    We had an incredible experience with Diving La Vida Loca in Amed. Enric is such a warm and welcoming host. We're from the Marine Megafauna Foundation and spent a week in Amed for a turtle outreach project. When we reached out to the dive center, they were not only open to supporting us but also generously offered to take us diving to help monitor sea turtles in the Karangasem area. Diving with Pol, our guide, was a real highlight. His briefings were clear and professional, and he made the dive smooth, safe, and enjoyable. The whole team was supportive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about marine conservation. Thank you for your kindness and for contributing to sea turtle conservation. We truly had a wonderful and meaningful time!

    Super recomendable!! Hicimos bautismo + dos inmersiones con Pol y la experiencia no pudo ser mejor. Íbamos algo inseguros pero nos lo explicó todo genial, hicimos unos ejercicios previos en la orilla para entrar con más seguridad y disfrutamos un montón. Las inmersiones fueron en una zona de corales y en el Liberty y nos encantó todo lo que vimos. Muy recomendable hacer dos inmersiones para hacerte con la situación en parte de la primera y en la segunda dedicarte a disfrutar al 100%. ¡Mil gracias Pol!

    ¡Gracias por una experiencia increíble! Aprendí en mi idioma: español. Mi instructor fue Enric 10/10, hice el Open Water, me sentí tan cómoda y segura en cada inmersión que me tiré a hacer el avanzado, todos son súper amables y muy profesionales. Además, ¡puedes elegir entre inglés y francés también! Gracias por hacer que mi aventura submarina sea inolvidable. ¡Altamente recomendado! 🐠🌊

    I did my AOWD course at Dive Resort Diving La Vida Loca in Amed (Bali) and it was an amazing experience. My instructor Stephane is super professional, very friendly, and incredibly flexible – he adapted perfectly to my level and explained everything clearly in English. What I really appreciated was that he also gave me extra tips beyond the course content and even repeated some skills with me underwater. The highlight was definitely the wreck dive, where we even went inside – Stephane took the time to make it both safe and exciting, choosing some really cool routes. Everything was really well organized: good and well-maintained equipment, and it was easy to get extras like a torch for the wreck dive. The whole team created a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere; Spanish is spoken a lot, but English works just as well. I was lucky to have the course 1:1, with long dive times and detailed explanations. I can highly recommend this dive school – for advanced divers looking for something special, as well as for beginners, who can also start comfortably in the pool. Another plus: you can even book the accommodation directly through the dive school, located right next door. Thank you Stephane!
