\"Sasa<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>

It all started on Lipah Beach in 2006 <\/strong>when I Made Sudarsa alias Sasa<\/strong> started a small rental business of snorkelling gear, first with 5 sets, then 20 sets.<\/p>\n

Sasa soon became a snorkelling guide and used Jukung local boats to bring the snorkellers to different spots like the Japanese Shipwreck and Lipah reef. Sasa was also active as a trekking guide to Agung volcano, Pura Lempuyang, and more.<\/p>\n

In 2017, Sasa realized that his passion was the ocean<\/strong> and started thinking about running a dive center in Amed Tulamben. At that time, most of the already numerous dive centers in Amed & Tulamben, if not all, were held by Europeans.<\/p>\n

However, in 2017, Sasa, a local Balinese man from Amed, convinced his family members to help him financially to take over the dive center Amed White Sand Divers in Amed Lipah.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The dive center in Amed was renovated and operated with a brand new compressor and tanks and 10 scuba sets. A German Padi instructor and diving expert of the area, managed the daily operation of the new dive shop and greatly contributed to its quick success. Sasa always actively supports the local community of Amed by helping local school programs and supporting environmental awareness and conservation programs like the artificial reefs in Lipah.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Amed White Sand Divers is now composed of 15 employees, including 4 permanent dive guides and 3 scuba instructors<\/strong>. Sasa and Totong (maintenance) started working for the company in 2017 and are still members of WSD.<\/p>\n

WSD became in 2022 a Padi 5-star Dive Resort, able now to welcome over 200 guests in 8 VIP hotels. <\/strong>Dive courses are available in 5 languages<\/strong>. WSD is now well-known in Bali for its friendly service with high regard to Padi safety standards. <\/strong>Since 2023 the diving activities have increased by +100%. In 2025, 350 Open Water courses – 200 Advanced & Specialty courses and 4 DM<\/strong> were conducted. WSD is your best partner in Amed not only for easy cool relaxed Fundives but also for challenging drift dives<\/strong> in Gili Selang and Tec decompression dives<\/strong> OC or CCR!<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
