ABOUT AMED
Amed refers to a long stretch of beach from the village Cucik to the east about 14 miles, incorporating the seven villages of Amed, Jemeluk, Bunutan, Lipah, Hose, Banyuning and Aas. The pace of life here is slow and coastal scenery quite stunning making Amed the perfect place for a relaxing holiday. Amed is the newest tourist development area in Bali. It was only in 2000 the streets along the Amed asphalt. Telephone lines installed in 2003 and it took until 2007 for a bridge to be built on part of the main road.

PARK THE DEEP AMED
Amed coast is far from what I imagined. Apparently, the coral reef in Amed is very beautiful and rich in various types of fish are very many anyway. Only with snorkel only we could swim with hundreds, perhaps thousands of schooling fish on this beach. Â I do not really know what kind of group gathering these fish. Anyway, similar to the type of fish we used to eat fish, possibly mackerel, tuna, skipjack, or perhaps other types of fish. Several other fish species were also present, such as butterfly fish, pipe fish, angel fish, boxfish, and various other reef fish inhabitants. We do not need to hire a boat to get to the snorkeling spot in Amed. Enough to swim away from the shoreline toward reef areas. Passable save costs because it does not have to rent a boat again, right? For many snorkel equipment available along Amed Beach very long.

PURA THE DEEP? A SUBMARINE MAILBOX
Between fooled and not fooled and we ourselves do not know we are very excited looking at the underwater temple Amed. It turns out that the temple in question is a post office box that was deliberately sunk by PT Pos Indonesia into the sea at a depth of approximately 5-10 meters (according to the guide). The name "pretend pretend" actually taped to the board under this Jemeluk is "Submarine Mailbox". The shape is like a temple and all, but the temples are pretending. The exact location of this temple is underwater in the Gulf Jemeluk, Amed.

A JAPANESE Shipwreck
In other parts of Amed Beach, there is a sunken Japanese ship fractions were transformed into the beautiful coral reefs. Of course as I have mentioned earlier that the type and amount of fish that inhabit coral reefs are numerous. It's just that, even though (or perhaps because) located near the shoreline, the water flows here pretty hard so a bit difficult for our movement. Japanese shipwreck location is also marked by a buoy-like object so that we know the direction in which the ship's debris is located. According to local people Shipwreck is a sunken wreck on the seabed. Japanese Wreck in Amed is one of Japanese shipwrecks from World War II, which left beauty as inhabited by various species of fish.
