About this site

The Tulamben Drop Off is a shore-entry wall dive at Tulamben, Bali. It runs from about 3 to 50 m and deeper, with little or no current, and the wall itself plunges past 100 m. The wall is covered in corals and sponges in a rare density, and fish surround you for the whole dive. It is a good dive for divers of all levels in the upper section.

Big pelagics are possible at greater depth, including ocean sunfish, sharks and humphead parrotfish. Alam Anda, a coral slope next to the Drop Off, runs from 3 to 60 m.
