Activities in the Area:
- Snorkelling
- Diving: David`s Dive Center was changed into Werner Lau Diving
Center Bali.
The MATAHARI BEACH RESORT & SPA is the perfect place for both
snorkelling and diving. At WERNER LAU DIVE CENTER all activities are
planned. No matter whether our guests are experienced or not, if they
like to use their own diving gear or one provided by the Dive Center,
the instructor (PADI) will ensure that everyone is well prepared.
Guests may have their first diving experience in our pool which has
the ideal depth for training (3m).
And then they may enjoy the beautiful coral reef only 200 m away
from our resort. The 10 km long untouched reef with its tropical flora
and fauna (gorgonian woods, table corals, large horn coral fields) is
ideal for snorkelling and diving: Even experienced and widely
travelled divers will be enthusiastic about the diving at Menjangan
Island, which is part of the Bali Barat National Park and is only 50
minutes away by boat. Here divers will find almost everything tropical
waters can offer: Whale sharks, gorgonian woods, sea ferns, table
corals, peaceful sharks, stingrays, tortoises and a lot more. An
extreme richness of tropical fish can be observed. Steep face and
current diving excursions are possible.
Only the MATAHARI BEACH RESORT & SPA and WERNER LAU DIVE CENTER has
the exclusive rights for a direct access to Menjangan Island by boat.
No other hotel and dive center in Bali can offer this privilege.
Another attraction is Tulamban: Here one can find - in a depth of
about 20 to 30 m - the wreck of a Japanese freighter completely
covered by corals. Last but not least there is the area of Amed which
offers the most beautiful steep face diving excursions for experienced
divers.
Respect for the Origin: We organize sighseeing-trips to all
sights of the island. Each trip is individually planned according to
your wishes may it be visitinging all places of Bali?s cultrual
heritage or simply going to the next village for shopping. Always
taking the local cutstons and tradition in to consideration,
especially when visiting temples or watching religious processions.
We also offer different classes to learn traditional craftsmanship
such as woodcarving, sculpture and painting in small shady pavilions
directly on our premises.
Culinary Pleasures: Enjoy culinary pleasures and let
yourself be pampered by the highly imaginative creations of Jany-Michel
Fourr? and his team from both kitchen and wine-cellar. On request we
offer our guests different cooking-classes to learn the secrets of
this exotic cuisine under professional directions.
Holiday for Body and Soul: Enjoy our extensive wellness
offers in our worldwide unique and authentic balinese SPA-Concept
which will be offered as per autumn 1999. Once you have had a
traditional balinese massage in our beach pavilion looking onto the
Java Sea you will know what we mean by "Holiday for Body and Soul". |
