Tulamben
A diving town on the northeast coast. You can dive to the wreck of the WWII US military transport ship Liberty just 30 m from shore, and beginners can snorkel too.
In 1942, the US military transport ship Liberty was struck by a Japanese torpedo and ran aground here. In 1963, the eruption of Mount Agung pushed the wreck into the sea. Today the wreck lies at depths of 3 to 30 m, covered in coral and dense with fish, and it is a world-famous shore dive site. Snorkelers can also see the shallow sections of the hull. Nearby Amed is also suitable for diving and for watching the sunrise over Mount Agung. Tulamben is about 2.5 hours' drive from Ubud, and a single dive costs about 500,000 to 800,000 rupiah.
