While Tulamben is world-renowned for its critters, it’s also home to some of the most striking wide-angle scenes in Bali. The USAT Liberty wreck rests just off the beach — a huge structure draped in soft corals, alive with schooling jacks, bumphead parrotfish, and clouds of anthias. Every dive here feels different as the light shifts through the water, revealing new colours and textures across the wreck and reefs.
Beyond the Liberty, Tulamben’s volcanic coastline is full of dramatic underwater landscapes — sheer walls, ridges of lava rock, and coral gardens where turtles and reef sharks cruise by. For a wide-angle photographer, it’s a playground: natural light beams streaming through the wreck, silhouettes of divers framed against coral arches, and the chance to capture the scale of Bali’s underwater world.
This gallery is a window into those big scenes — the sense of space and scale that makes Tulamben not just a macro paradise, but also a destination for unforgettable wide-angle encounters.
