While you're in the region
Is this a good one?
- Against others of its kind
- At $46 a day this sits well below the $108 median for craft & artisan. It is cheaper than 17 of the 19 craft & artisan options mapped here.
- Other things to learn in Indonesia
- 4 other options in Indonesia, starting with freediving fundamentals in Gili Trawangan from $320.
- When to go
- Workable across 5 months of the year — May-Sep. Outside that the season is against you, not the school.
- How long it really takes
- Most people give it 12 days, but the honest range is 3 to 30. That spread is wide because how far you take it is up to you.
