SamaDive · free app
Never dive alone.
Half the divers in Bali are travelling solo. SamaDive is a free community app that fixes the oldest problem in dive travel: finding a buddy. See who's diving this week, post or join a dive plan, chat, and meet at the beach.
See who's diving this week
Divers around you with certification, experience and discipline (scuba or freedive) — a real profile, not a swipe deck.
"Liberty wreck, Thu 6 am, 2 spots"
Post a plan or join one. Small groups, clear meeting points, group chat included.
Buddy up before you suit up
Message divers, sort logistics, share a driver to Tulamben. Blocking and reporting built in — it's a noticeboard, not a dating app.
Starting in Amed & Tulamben
Bali's shore-diving and freediving heartland, with local dive centres on board — then growing island-wide.
Launching soon
Get early access
SamaDive is in final store preparation. Leave your email and you'll be first in when it launches — and you'll help us decide where to expand after Amed.
Why buddies matter (beyond the obvious)
Diving's rule number one exists for good reasons — a large share of incidents involve solo or separated divers. But the buddy system is also just better diving: shared costs to the dive sites, someone to point out what you missed, and half the world's dive friendships started with "got a buddy for tomorrow?". Guided dives solve the safety half; SamaDive is for the community half.
Dive centres: SamaDive lists local centres for free — divers find you, message you on WhatsApp, and rent gear or book guides directly. samadive.com has the details.
