(VOVWORLD) -Amed is an underrated and hidden gem on the east coast of Bali, Indonesia. It’s an area developing for tourism while holding on to tradition. It is slowly becoming known as a destination for backpackers, free diving, scuba diving, and yoga. James Demin, who just spent a week-long holiday in Amed, Bali, will  share some of the best things to do in this paradise including his free diving course. 

 
 "I went to Bali during the Tet holiday. Before that, I started doing some research. I have already known Amed was the best place to go. It is famous for diving," said James Demin.

"It was a very positive experience. I went from being able to dive maybe 5 meters on one breath and stay under for over one minute. By the end I was diving 12 meters and able to hold myself at that depth for nearly 3 minutes," said James Demin.

"I learned technique to lower my heart rate, and to use visualization in order to not be bothered by the buildup of CO2 in my body. I got better at that, and I also learned to move more efficiently through the water, so I could waste less energy and lessen oxygen while I was under water. So I could stay down longer," said James Demin.

 "The course itself includes everything you need. And mine also included lunch on both days, the cost was around 200-300USD. With that you got certified as well," said James Demin.
