You push off from a narrow black-sand beach and the reef immediately takes hold — a ribbon of coral alive with darting fish, the surface sparkling under a Bali sun.

6–8 hours.
Moderate fitness—comfortable swimming and basic snorkeling endurance for repeated 45–60 minute sessions

Expect reef fish (angelfish, clownfish, fusiliers), occasional sea turtles, and abundant corals around the wreck and nearby gardens.
Shared transport from main hotels in the Amed/Tulamben region is typically provided—confirm your pickup point at booking.
Each session lasts about 45–60 minutes, adjusted for comfort, currents, and group energy levels.
