The spirit of travel
Tulamben, located on the northeast coast of Bali, is one of Indonesia's most famous diving sites. Renowned for its diversity of spots and accessibility, it attracts divers of all levels thanks to its rich underwater ecosystem and spectacular coral reefs. Tulamben is known for its incredible marine biodiversity, such as reef fish (trevally, angelfish, butterflyfish, triggerfish, etc.), macro creatures (nudibranchs, pygmy seahorses, shrimp, etc.) and large animals (turtles, rays, reef sharks, etc.). The reefs close to the coast, such as Coral Garden or the USAT Liberty, also offer an incredible experience for snorkelers, with shallow waters and rich marine life.
With its beach-accessible sites, ideal conditions, and fascinating marine life, Tulamben is ultimately an essential destination for any diver visiting Bali.
In Tulamben, you will be accommodated at Minabali Bunga'lo, a charming hotel with all comforts (with swimming pool). If, at the time of booking, this hotel is not available, we will select similar accommodation of the same standard.
