About this site

Batu Niti is a boat-access reef dive site in the Amed area of Bali, Indonesia, reaching a maximum depth of 27.6 m, though deep divers have been known to push to 50 metres or more. The reef terrain is characterised by hard coral, sponges, gorgonians, and sea fans spread across the site.

The site is reached by boat, with current running light and conditions generally best on a rising tide. Diving is considered technical in difficulty, making it better suited to experienced divers.

Batu Niti holds a solid range of marine life, including turtles, barracuda, Mola Mola (sunfish), and many other reef species amid the coral and sponge cover. The sunfish are a notable sighting here, with the season for Mola Mola typically running May through October, though the site is diveable year-round.
