Amed Shipwreck
Bali · Indonesia
A Japanese patrol vessel from WWII sits at 12 m to 29 m on a black volcanic sand slope off the fishing village of Amed. The shallow top of the wreck is reachable by confident beginners and the hull is encrusted in hard and soft coral with resident bumphead parrotfish grazing the superstructure at dawn. The site is shore-accessible and diveable at any state of the tide.
