Dive Sites
There are about 15 unique dive locations accessible from Tulamben. The five listed below are the sites we frequent most often, but we can explore as many as you want - contact us for more details.
USAT Liberty Shipwreck
The most famous dive site in Tulamben. The USAT Liberty is a US Navy cargo ship that was torpedoed in 1942, beached, and later pushed in to the water by a Mount Agung eruption in 1963. Since then it has evolved into a coral habitat, teeming with an astounding variety of water dwellers. Vibrant Batfish, ink-black Sturgeon, sea horses, eels, and an enormous school of Jackfish are just some of this regulars that call the Liberty home. A rare wreck dive just meters from shore, large enough to be explored in multiple dives, and ideal for a night dive, The Liberty is a must-see.
The Drop Off
A collection of submerged lava flows at the southeast tip of Tulamben Bay is commonly known as The Drop Off. With depths exceeding seventy meters, and a drop beginning not far from shore, The Drop Off, along with The Liberty, is considered first-rate diving and another home to stunning aquatic life.
Coral Garden
Between the Liberty and Drop Off is the Coral Garden. It's a nice long shallow reef that follows the beach for about 150 meters. A great area for photography with an abundance of reef life. Some vary rare sea life can be seen here; Leaf Scorpion Fish, Ribbon Eels, Harlequin Ghost Pipefish and Spanish Dancer Nudibranchs. You can also see large schools of Snapper, Trevally and Sweetlip along with the occasional reef shark.
Seraya Secrets
Right in front of the Seraya resort is what is known locally as the 'muck dive'. Diving from 3 to 35 meters with a shallow reef and sloping rock bottom. Here you can see Frogfish, Scorpion Fish, Lionfish, Sea Month's, Harequin Shrimp, cuttlefish, mimic octopus, striped catfishm nudibranchs, micro colored crinoids and large frogfish. There's no muck here!
Batu Kebit
Just beyond the jagged coastline of Alam Anda sits a rock cluster known as Batu Kelebit. The dramatic reef drop extends to fifty meters, giving way to a stunning view of local marine life like Barracuda, Sea Cucumbers, and Reef Sharks. A classic coral reef, Batu Kelebit is unique when compared to the black-sand for which Tulamben Bay is well-known, due to the white sands flanking the coral blooms. Batu Kelebit is accessible by jukung and is fitted with a mooring buoy, similar to Alam Anda.
