Amed: Jemeluk Bay Essentials

Amed Jemeluk Bay Dive Guide

Welcome to Jemeluk Bay in Amed, one of East Bali’s most loved dive sites. Known for its crystal-clear water, vibrant coral slopes, and calm conditions, this bay is perfect for both beginners and experienced divers. Just a short drive from Tulamben, Amed combines colorful reefs with a laid-back coastal atmosphere, making it a favorite destination for relaxed diving and snorkeling adventures.

Why Dive Jemeluk Bay

The bay’s gentle sloping reef offers easy access directly from the beach, making it ideal for those learning to dive or joining a PADI Open Water Course. Beneath the surface, you’ll find stunning coral formations teeming with tropical fish such as butterflyfish, angelfish, and the occasional turtle. The famous underwater Buddha statues and artificial reef structures at Jemeluk create a mystical diving atmosphere unlike anywhere else in Bali.

After your dive, you can explore nearby Tulamben’s USAT Liberty Wreck or take a short trip to Menjangan Island for world-class wall diving, all easily accessible through Sunrise Dive Bali.

Best Seasons
