Amed Snorkeling & Sunset Boat Tour
Explore Amed's vibrant coral reefs and stunning coastal views on a traditional Jukung, while supporting our local fishing community directly.
A Story from the Son of an Amed Fisherman
Hi, I'm your local host and the founder of Amed Excursion. Growing up as the son of a fisherman right here in Amed, I know firsthand how deeply our community relies on the ocean. That's why our jukung boat trips are run directly with our local fisherman community, on a fair rotating queue, rather than through a third-party agency.
Where You'll Snorkel in Amed
Every jukung trip visits three spots along Amed's coast, each reachable in a short paddle from the last.
Japanese Shipwreck, Banyuning
Amed's most searched-for dive and snorkel site: a shallow WWII-era wooden wreck in Banyuning, now grown over with soft coral and thick with reef fish. At roughly 3–10 metres, the Japanese shipwreck in Amed sits close enough to the surface to see clearly while snorkeling, and calm enough water to make it a comfortable first stop even for guests who've never snorkeled a wreck before.

A short crossing from the shipwreck, Lipah Beach in Amed shelters a calm coral garden of table and staghorn coral, with reef fish that feed close to the surface. The sheltered bay keeps conditions relaxed most of the year, making Lipah Bay snorkeling one of the easiest stops on the route for beginners.
Full details on Lipah Bay →Jemeluk Bay & the Jemeluk Wall
Jemeluk Beach in Amed is the area's signature bay — a shallow reef flat close to shore leading out to the Jemeluk Wall, a drop-off reef that goes deeper for more confident swimmers. It's usually the closing stop of the trip, with Mount Agung rising behind the water and some of the best light of the day, especially on the sunset route.
