An experienced financial services professional, Timothy (Tim) Maleck has served as a financial associate in New York City since 2015. When away from work, he enjoys traveling the world to scuba dive. One of Timothy Maleck’s favorite diving destinations is the Indonesian island of Bali.
Scuba divers of all skill levels can enjoy exceptional diving in Bali. All around the island, the offshore waters support a rich and colorful array of fish and living coral. Some of the most-sought-after species in these waters are the Mola mola and the manta Ray.
Divers who want to spot Mola molas, the massive ocean sunfish, flock to Bali’s Crystal Bay from between August and October. The best place to see a manta ray, by contrast, is just off the aptly named Manta Point.
The most famous dive site in Bali is home to one of the best and most accommodating shipwrecks in the world. The sunken USS Liberty offers the opportunity to view marine life such as the garden eel and the black tip shark, all while exploring a 130-meter-long ship that is roughly 5 meters deep at its shallowest point and about 30 meters deep at its deepest.
