Amed Snorkeling Spot

Lipah Bay Snorkeling

A sheltered coral garden a short crossing from the shipwreck, with calm water that makes it easy to see reef fish close to the surface.

Lipah Bay is a sheltered coral garden in Amed, East Bali, with calm water around 2 to 8 metres deep. It's the second stop on the Jukung Snorkeling Tour, Golden Sunset Tour and Custom Trip, known for table and staghorn coral and reef fish close to the surface.

What you'll see

Marine life and reef at Lipah Bay

  • Table coral and staghorn coral formations across the bay floor
  • Parrotfish, angelfish and other reef fish feeding on the coral
  • Calm, clear water that keeps visibility good most of the year
  • Occasional turtles passing through the bay

The bay's calm, sheltered water makes this one of the easiest stops on the route, well suited to guests who want to spend more time floating and looking rather than swimming against current.
