Amed Diving on Amed Beach, 30 Minutes from the Liberty Wreck

Two Fish Divers Amed is our PADI 5 Star dive centre on Amed Beach, in the main village of Amed. It sits at Amed Beach Resort, a partner hotel, so you can stay a short walk from the dive centre and the house reef.

The house reef is right in front of the resort. For the USAT Liberty wreck at Tulamben, 30 minutes away, we drive you there by car rather than in the back of an open van, and we have our own boat for the boat sites. There are no more than 4 divers per guide.

We run fun diving, snorkelling and PADI courses from Discover Scuba and Open Water through Advanced, Rescue and Specialty. We also run Divemaster Internships, the IDC and Instructor Internships here.

Southeast Asia's Most Famous Wreck — and Much More

Amed gives easy access to the USAT Liberty — Southeast Asia’s most famous wreck dive, a short drive up the coast in Tulamben — but it is also where Bali slows down and the diving gets personal. No crowds, no traffic, no rush. Just a quiet stretch of East Bali coastline with volcanic black sand beaches, one of Asia’s most famous shipwrecks a short drive away, and a house reef you can walk into from shore.

The diving is varied, accessible, and consistently excellent. The USAT Liberty wreck in Tulamben. The Japanese Shipwreck covered in coral. Our house reef for night dives and training. Macro critters on black sand slopes that photographers fly across the world to shoot. All within 30 minutes of the dive centre.

Amed is a genuine holiday destination too — beautiful coastline, quiet beaches, excellent restaurants (including Mexican, French, vegan and Thai as well as many local options), Tirta Gangga water palace nearby. Non-diving partners aren’t stuck in a dive shop all day.

This Location is Perfect For

Wreck & Macro Divers

The USAT Liberty is one of Asia's most famous wreck dives — 25 minutes from the centre, shore entry, 5–30m depth. Black sand slopes are a macro photographer's dream. Night dives on the house reef with mandarinfish and hunting octopus.

Course Divers

PADI 5-Star IDC Centre. Amed's conditions are perfect for learning to dive, so we run a lot of Open Water courses here: you train in our pool, then walk straight off the beach for your first course dive. From your first breath underwater to Divemaster and Instructor certifications. Amed is one of our three IDC locations, with Sanur and Nusa Penida.

Families & First-Timers

Calm warm water, shore diving, and a house reef at the centre. Discover Scuba runs daily. Non-diving partners have beaches, restaurants, and Tirta Gangga to explore. A real holiday, not just a dive trip.

Why Two Fish in Amed

Two Fish Divers has been in Amed since 2012 — we know these sites, these currents, and these critters better than anyone.

What being based here means for your diving:

  • Shore diving on demand. Our house reef is right there. Night dives, training dives, or a casual afternoon dive — no boat schedule to work around.
  • Small groups, always. Max 4 divers per guide. On the Liberty wreck, that means you’re not fighting 20 other divers for a photo of the pygmy seahorse.
  • The full PADI pathway. Open Water to Instructor, all taught here. Our GoPro programme runs Divemaster Internships, the IDC and Instructor Internships in Amed.
  • Real accommodation packages. Stay+dive bundles from IDR 3,200,000 — one booking, one price, no logistics.

25 years in Indonesia. PADI 5-Star IDC Centre. Max 4 divers per guide.

Add Penida — The Bali Explorer Safari

Amed is calm shore diving — the famous Liberty wreck, easy macro reefs, and sunrise dives straight off the beach. Nusa Penida, a short hop south, is the polar opposite: drift dives along the manta cleaning stations, mola mola in season, and big-water diving with proper currents. The contrast between the two is one of Bali’s great combinations.

Our Bali Explorer Safari packages combine both locations — 3 nights Amed + 4 nights Penida, with all transfers included.
See the safari →

Add Manado — Fly Bali → Manado and continue with the walls and turtles of Bunaken, the muck diving of Lembeh, or both. We coordinate the full trip across locations.
