 Amed is situated in north east Bali 1 hour from Padang Bai & 30 mins from Tulamben Dive Sites. Amed village first exist from salt panning & fishing. Now mainly from Tourism When Arriving there you will notice on the left woodpiles which are used for this technique of salt extraction.
The coral garden starts right off the beach breaking the surface with a staghorn coral field and huge schools of fish. This is Bali's second best snorkeling site next to Blue Lagoon Padang Bai.
The actual dive site can be reached by local boat. The dive starts in a shallow area of 3 to 8 m in a wonderful coral garden. You may encounter turtles and Bumphead parrot fish. A moderate current will guide you in approx. 20 min to the drop off's edge. One drop offs drops straight down to 30 m. It is beautifully grown with soft coral and any possible species of reef fish can be found there. White & Blacktip reef sharks swims pass occasionally checking out their feeding ground.
The highlight however is an area at 27 m of depth with a sandy field full of blue-spotted stingrays. The other drop off is only 25 m deep, ideal for the subsequent shallower dive.
The dive site features a pinnacle, which erects from a depth of 25 m forming a scenic swim through in 20 m. At both drop offs your 5m safety stop will be highly entertaining. Both dives are drift dives with a mild current, with outrigger boats following the divers. Both are very comfortable dives.
