OCEAN VIEW TULAMBEN DIVE CENTER
We are an experienced Dive Center with more than 20 years of experience mentoring the new generation of divers
from around the world. Our local dive masters grew up with this sea, love it, respect it, and want to share this incredible place with you. Because we are located directly in front of the famous USAT Liberty Shipwreck, we are a hub for divers and tour operators coming from all over Bali to dive Tulamben. Take advantage of the buzzing activity and diverse dive community during the day and relax in our quiet, cozy atmosphere at night.
DIVE SITES
The rich biodiversity of Tulamben and the surrounding area makes for an excellent variety of dive sites. Of the 18 nearby dive sites, there are 2 shipwrecks, a wall, coral reefs as well as sandy slopes that are perfect for macro diving. The most famous dive site is, of course, the USAT Liberty wreck. The 120-meter WWII shipwreck sits in 5 to 30 metres of water and lies just 35 metres offshore in front at our resort. Though it was damaged beyond repair during WWII, it remained beached until the eruption of Mount Agung in 1963 when it slid into the water from the seismic activity. This makes the Liberty wreck on of the most accessible and preserved wrecks from this era, a truly unique dive site that is a must visit for all levels of divers. Though it is an amazing location to explore during the day, we also highly recommend night diving on the wreck as you will have the opportunity to see big groupers hunting small fish, large moray eels swimming through the openings in the wreck, huge spanish dancers swimming into the blue, and large groups of Humphead Parrotfish, the worlds largest species of parrotfish that come out at night in families of 20 members or more.
​
While the USAT Liberty is the most widely known dive site in the area, Tulamben is also famous for macrodiving, so much so that we have earned the nickname "Balinese Lembeh" after Lembeh Straight. The micro life here calls expert photographers from around the world to identify new species and look for specific nudibranches, crabs or shrimps that they've always dreamed of seeing underwater. If you want to take it one step further, you can participate in the international photo contests. Are you ready for the challenge?
