PINUS
Why dive here
With 515+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, blue-spotted stingrays, bull sharks, giant moray eels and manta rays - PINUS offers some of Bali's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 29-31°C, warmest April, May, November.
Pinus, a Landing Craft Design vessel, rests upright at 40 meters, making it a dive for those comfortable with deeper profiles. She went down in 1995 after heavy weather in the Madura Straits, and you can still feel that history when you descend onto her deck. The wreck itself isn't huge, about 30 meters long, but it’s a robust structure, and penetration is possible for trained wreck divers into some of the cargo holds. We often find schooling fusiliers here, swirling around the stern, and lionfish tend to patrol the railings. It’s a good spot for quiet reflection, away from the busier sites, and the depth often means fewer divers.
