Tulamben House Reef

Running along the middle section of Tulamben bay is a shallow reef of mainly table and fire corals interspersed with anemones and sponges. The fish life is very diverse. You can see a surprising number of blue ribbon eels, octopus, shrimps and anemone fish. Bigger fish seen here include bumphead parrotfish and black tip reef shark. The depth (averaging 8-12m) and location make the Tulamben house reef a very good and popular night dive. -- From southern Bali (Kuta, Nusa Dua, Sanur, Denpasar) drive east via Gianyar town, Semarapura and Amlapura. From Amlapura head north to Culik. Tulamben is about 20 minutes from Culik. Resorts are situated on either side of the road in Tulamben. Those on the right run down to the beach. The drive takes about 3 hours.
