Why go
USAT Liberty Wreck lies in the Bali Sea off Indonesia and is centred on wreck dives, turning sunken vessels into reef-like habitat. Dives run to 29 m with around 15 m visibility, gentle currents and sea temperatures of 26–29°C. Marine highlights include WWII US Army transport, turtles, giant grouper and schooling fish. Diving is possible year-round, typically reached by shore. Best for newer divers. Open Water certification is sufficient for most sites here.
