Day 2 and 3 - Ocean dives
On Day 2, it’s time for your first and second open water dives in the beautiful waters of Southeast Lombok. You’ll head down to a maximum depth of 12 meters (40 feet), practice the skills you learned in the pool, and get comfortable exploring the ocean—all with your instructor right beside you for support.

These dives are all about putting your skills into practice while soaking up the beauty of the underwater world.
