General

During nearly 5 years Jukung Dive Bali has worked under the name "Eurodive".
In the mean time we have changed our name into Jukung Dive. Our Balinese staff now works under completely Dutch management. This enables us to bring the quality of our dive operation to an even higher level.

With the new name "Jukung Dive Bali" we bring a tribute to the local fishermen who hire out their Jukungs to us whenever we need them for our diving operation. By doing so we offer the local population an extra form of income, next to fishing and the traditional salt making and which gives them extra job opportunities for now and the future.
The Jukung is Bali’s traditional small craft. The hull is a bright painted tree trunk, and the outriggers are made of bamboo. The vessels seat up to three inline. All boats must have eyes: a fisherman would no sooner go out on the water in a jukung without eyes, than he would if he were blind himself. Although many still run sails, those at Amed often use small outboards, with a prop at the end of a long shaft. With over ninety boats, the Amed fishermen are well organized in a group called Mekar Sari. When diving, the ‘president’ is briefed on the number of divers. Within a couple of minutes the required amount of boats show up. The divers are sailed to the right spot and while drift diving accompanied by the Jukung, which simply follows the bubbles at the surface.
