They are one of the more well-known and reputable dive shops in Amed and they run daily tours to the USAT Liberty (which is what we wanted to dive). We looked for one that was near(ish) our hotel and had good reviews, and we landed on Adventure Divers Bali. There are kind of an overwhelming amount of dive schools to choose from in Amed. We spoke with others who had done many more dives, and they said each was very different. We did two dives here, and they were both fantastic. Whew! (And that was just all we wrote down.)
We saw a sea turtles, a giant moray eel, puffer fish, trigger fish, flounder, scorpion fish, box fish, sweetlips, grouper, crabs, lobster, and pipefish. The wreck has lots of marine growth and there is lots of life to be seen.
This fishing village is known for some of the best scuba diving in Bali, plus, you’ll have opportunities to see Balinese life without tons of tourists around. With Bali’s iconic Mount Agung looming in the distance and plenty of coastline, Amed is undoubtedly beautiful. You can also arrange transportation through your hotel or by using a ride sharing app like Grab or Gojek. While it’s kind of difficult to walk very far in Amed (due to the lack of sidewalks), it is a great place to rent a scooter since there is little traffic. The majority of restaurants and guesthouses are clustered around each of the 3 beaches, the first being a black sand beach, the second rocky, and the third white sand (actually, I’d call it regular sand).
If you know what you’re looking for, jump ahead to these sections: See what I did there?!)Ĭome with us to escape the tourists, souvenir vendors, and traffic as you fall in love with Amed, Bali! So put on your scuba mask and we’ll dive into in this travel guide to Amed, Bali. We’re walking you through exactly what things to put on your itinerary, where to eat, and where to stay. On one of our last weekends living in Bali, we decided to make the trip out to Amed, and we are so glad we did! We fell hard for the relaxed vibes here and found that there are lots of things to do in Amed (much more than we were expecting!).
While we wouldn’t say it’s a hidden gem, you’ll feel far away from the Bintang-slinging crowds of Kuta, the hipster vibes of Canggu and the Instagram queues around Ubud. Situated on Bali’s east coast, the quaint fishing village of Amed has a laid back vibe that reminds us of what Bali must have been like decades ago.
