The Sea in Me
Tulamben, Bali (5 Days 4 Nights)
7th - 11th Dec 2024
If you've watched the acclaimed documentary "My Octopus Teacher" on Netflix, you'll understand the profound bond humans can share with marine life. Filmmaker Craig Foster discovered this connection with an octopus in the kelp forests of Cape Town, simply by observing her from a respectful distance. Through this, he learns about himself and the common nature he shares with his fellow marine creatures.
“What she taught me is to feel that you are part of this place. Not a visitor. And that’s a huge difference.” - Craig Foster
In the midst of our busy lives, we often forget that we share the ocean with many other marine creatures. Yet, the ocean provides us not only with essential resources like oxygen and food, but also emotional and psychological nourishment.
Picture yourself swimming in the sea, observing every ripple pattern, watching sunlight dance on the surface, mini doses of surprises when a puffer fish or a butterfly fish swim by doing their daily strolls. These experiences have a profound effect on our minds and souls.
The Blue Mind
Research has shown that being near, under, or on water induces a mildly meditative state known as the "Blue Mind," which boosts our sense of well-being. Its through these moments we have with the ocean, we grow our minds, heart and soul that allows us to connect with the world around us.
Come be curious and grow your soul!
"The Sea in Me" is an adventure to get to know the Sea Realm in a safe and exciting way, alongside a professional.
You'll connect with the ocean through Discover Scuba Diving, Day & Night Snorkeling at the USAT Liberty World War II Wreck, and Discover Surfing at Kuta Beach.
No certification is required - just bring your curiosity and an open mind. Coupled with yoga sessions to bring out the awareness in you, enriching your connection with the sea.
Hi Blue Bali - Melasti Dive Resort
The resort we'll be staying in Tulamben for three (3) nights is Hi Blue Bali - Melasti Dive Resort, with twin sharing accommodation.
The USAT Liberty World War II shipwreck is just 2.6 km away from the resort. With easy navigation and depths from 5m to 30m, divers of all levels can enjoy this 120m-long wreck. Covered in colorful coral and home to diverse marine life against the black sand backdrop, it's a great spot for diving.
