Amed Zen Divers

Amed’s been a bit over-loved lately, but even with the crowds, we still have a soft spot for the Zen Divers site. It’s a good little drift, usually gentle enough that you can just kick back and let the current do the work. What really gets us here is the sheer number of glassfish. You’ll be swimming through schools so thick they practically blot out the sun, a shimmering, pulsing tunnel that just keeps going. Keep an eye out for rosies, the rosy frogfish are pretty common here, tucked into the branch coral or just chilling on the sandy bottom. We've also spotted more than a few elegant sandburrowers doing their thing, and sometimes you’ll catch a slender snake eel poking its head out. The staghorn corals are coming back nicely, too, providing some good shelter for the resident groupers. It’s not the most dramatic reef in Bali, but for a relaxed afternoon drift where you can just immerse yourself in the sheer numbers of small fish, it's our favourite Amed spot. It suits divers who appreciate the quiet beauty of a healthy, recovering reef and those who love watching tiny critters in their natural habitat.
