Tulamben Bali

Located in north side of Tirtagangga, this beach is known for its history and its beauty. Tulamben beach located at the eastern Bali is the famous diving site, where Liberty ship, a U.S. Cargo was torpedoed by Japanese sub-marine warship on 11 January 1942. She was beached on Tulamben when rescue attempts failed. In 1963, when Mount Agung erupted, the ships broke into two and was swept to her current position close to the shore of Tulamben. Now, the wreckage is becoming home of various fish and aquatic animals.
