What a GEM! Such an amazing experience diving with Pure Dive, I spent a couple weeks diving with them in September. Every staff member was extremely professional and did their best to provide the experience everyone was looking for. We saw countless manta, and lots of mola when the ocean would provide them! If you’re into macro and can peel your gaze away from all the big stuff, it’s epic and the guides know how to find it! I had such an epic trip I even brought my family there in October and had my 10yr old nephew do his open water course! Can’t say enough good things about these guys!

I was last on Nusa Penida in May 2022, diving for 11 days with Ark and the team at Pure. My comments then were along the lines that Pure are a real class act. I've dived all over the world and Pure were a class above. From the quality of the retal gear to the safety briefings, from the boat crews to the dive guides, from the purpose-built dive centre to the care taken of clients' camera gear, from the attention to detail at the end of each day as gear was methodically checked to the wry sense of humour endemic amongst the team... ...yes, Pure were indeed a class act. I've just left Pure Divers after another 10 day stay, with 29 dives completed. Had standards fallen? Not at all... ...if anything, the place had developed even further, with additional guides, boats and a nitrox facility on site, and accommodation being developed too - a testament to the time, thought and effort that goes into this family owned and run business. Travelling solo can be a bit of a bug-bear for many resorts, but the welcome was great and I felt truly at home. How was the diving? Superb. Everything from tiny critters and nudibranchs through to frogfish, from marbled rays to manta, from tuna to... ...the object of this year's trip - Mola Mola. I saw Mola three times during my stay... ...on one occasion, there were five Mola! Great! Any regrets? Well, I suppose there's only one... ...the advent of the on-site nitrox facility meant that I no longer had the daily entertainment of watching Ark balancing my three nitrox tanks on his scooter!!! Would I go back to Pure? Without hesitation.

We really enjoyed the 4 days with Pure Dive, the guys are very nice, professional and responsible, thanks Ark for helping solve the problem with my personal gears, Baron and Abdul are the best to find mola and manta, we definitely will come back!

Been diving for 15 years, this is probably the dive centre that top it all. Pre trip, conversation with Pure Dive was clear and concise. Staff was very helpful in getting us all the way from airport into Nusa Penida, the hotel. Diving, briefing was very clear, equipment was new, staff was very attentive and the entire process of you stepping into dive centre tilll you go for dive and come back shower, was all well thought of. It is to the point of things like towel. Pure Dive provides soft towel which doesn't brush your skin when you dry up. That would be painful if you get sunburn, but yeah, a simple towel would have made life easier after dive. Diving was split into 3 diver with 1 guide. You won't feel like a market diving with 9 divers and 1 guide kinda arrangement. Total of 9 divers on boat, they have 3 dive guide with us. And briefing, planning and execution is very clear. Was diving with Abdou (I think that is how his name is spelled) most of the time. Fantastic guide, english speaking and very well verse with current situation of sea in Nusa Penida. Alongside with him was the owner, Ark (I think that is how his name is spelled) what a fantastic Ukrainian guy who have been diving in Nusa Penida for 15 years. Very experienced and very easy to dive with him. Overall, I have no bad review for this dive centre really, the place itself aesthetically look so good, which that explains how much effort they put in to create a space for us to gather, prepare and go dive. Awesome place indeed.

Really great trip, I did two days and the second day we went to Manta point and had the chance to see multiple Manta rays. Pure dive had great facilities with showers, a pool & lunch was good.
