Dive-site story
Situated along Tulamben's black volcanic coastline, this shallow reef combines natural coral bommies with an underwater gallery of stone statues and Balinese shrines. Anemonefish colonies occupy nearly every table coral, while cleaning stations dot the slope and attract moray eels. Macro enthusiasts frequent the sand channels to hunt for rare crustaceans and cephalopods, and blacktip reef sharks occasionally patrol the shallows during morning dives.
Submerged Balinese temple statues and stupas encrusted with soft corals and sponges
Active cleaning stations hosting banded boxer shrimp and ribbon eels
Reliable macro photography territory featuring ornate ghost pipefish and harlequin shrimp
