Dive-site story
Lipah Bay sits along the quiet coastline of east Bali, known for its sheltered conditions and relaxed shore diving. A gentle sandy slope transitions into sprawling coral gardens and scattered bommies where macro critters mingle with schooling reef fish. Near the shallow shoreline rests the encrusted frame of a small steel wreck, commonly visited by snorkelers and divers during safety stops before following the reef down along the outer slope.
Vigorous hard coral fields stretching along a calm, sloping seabed
Shallow steel wreck structure covered in sponges and hydroids
Excellent macro spotting including nudibranchs, ghost pipefish, and juvenile frogfish
Location

Seasonality
