Although it is a relatively new wreck, the marine ecosystem quickly engulfed it and covered it with various hard and soft coral, sponges and gorgonian fans. There are also regular sightings of reef sharks, bump head parrot fish, blue-spotted stingrays, octopus and a school of barracuda at the wreck and its surrounding coral reef garden.

The Tulamben Wreck is directly situated near the beach on Bali’s northeast coast. The 120m long wreck rest in a 90 degree with the deck facing the seaside and used to be an American supply ship. You ,may dive or snorkel this wreck comfortably, accessing it directly from the beach.
History:
The U.S.A.T. Liberty was built in America as a cargo ship, and equipped with two guns for the World War anchored off the coast of Lombok, the ship was hit by a Japanese torpedo in January 1942. Miraculously noboby got hurt but the damage turned the ship into a none functioning and useless hull. The American navy planned to toll the ship to Singaraja harbor (North Bali) but failed as the harbor was completely occupied, so the ship was intentionally stranded on the rocky beach of Tulamben, where it was unloaded. In 1963 volcano Agung erupted and the Magma flow press the ship back into the sea where it is presently rest at depth 3-29m. Since then, coral covers the wreckage completely and turned it into a home for many species of fish. From time to time, a napoleon fish or a barracuda drops by.
