About Amed:
Amed, located on the eastern coast of Bali, Indonesia, is renowned for its excellent conditions for freediving. Here are several reasons why Amed is considered good for freediving:
Warm Water: Amed benefits from warm water temperatures year-round, typically ranging from 27°C to 30°C. Warm water is comfortable for extended freediving sessions and helps prevent rapid body heat loss, allowing divers to stay in the water longer, with optimal performance.
Clear Visibility: The waters around Amed boast crystal-clear visibility, often exceeding 20 meters or more. Clear visibility enhances the freediving experience, allowing divers to enjoy stunning underwater landscapes and marine life without obstruction.
Rich Marine Biodiversity: Amed is home to diverse marine life, including vibrant coral reefs, colorful fish, turtles, and other fascinating creatures.
Accessible Dive Sites: Amed offers easy access to numerous dive sites suitable for freediving, ranging from shallow reefs to deeper drop-offs. Many of these sites are just a short swim from the shore, making them convenient for freedivers to explore without the need for boat transport.
Variety of Dive Environments: Freedivers in Amed can enjoy a variety of underwater landscapes, including coral gardens, rocky outcrops and sandy bottoms. There are also 2 ship wrecks, that make for a freediver’s dream playground.
Relaxed Atmosphere: Compared to some of Bali's busier tourist areas, Amed offers a more laid-back and tranquil atmosphere. Freedivers can enjoy a peaceful and less crowded diving experience, with fewer distractions and disturbances underwater.
Epic Accomodation: Blue Earth is built and designed by freedivers, for freedivers. Nestled in a tropical rainforest, Blue Earth Village boasts modern and well-equipped facilities, including a dedicated 25m training pool, a shallow static breath-hold pool, classrooms, a restaurant that caters for most food intolerances, a yoga villa that overlooks the bay and multiple cozy lounge areas. The rooms feature air-conditoning, a private outdoor bathroom and bar fridge and ample space.
