At Kubu Point there are two different reefs accessible from the shore. After a 20m swim from the shore the reefs run from a depth of 5-40m. The profile is a black sand slope where you can find many garden eels. There are both soft and hard corals in great diversity, including many sea
fans. Fish life here includes barracuda, pygmy seahorses, sharks and some large octopus. Visibility at Kubu is normally excellent, even when it has been wavy with low visibility at Tulamben.

From southern Bali (Kuta, Nusa Dua, Sanur, Denpasar) drive east via Gianyar town, Semarapura and Amlapura. From Amlapura head north to Culik. Tulamben is about 20 minutes from Culik. From Tulamben keep heading northwest. After approximately 10 minutes there is a junction, the road to the right will bring you to the beach after about 1km.

Lots of critters, great photo site.  Entry has become easier since the bad storms in Feb 2011 which eroded the shore significantly.  Relax Bali resort next door provides a nice restaurant to relax at between dives.  Saw nice pygmy seahorses and turtles during June, July and August.
