What to expect

You'll start early from your accommodation and drive 2.5 hours to reach Tulamben's black sand beaches. Two separate dives follow, each exploring different sandy and rocky terrain where macro life congregates. Shallow depths and calm conditions make this ideal for photography—bring a macro lens and patience. Between dives, you'll rinse off, eat lunch at a beachfront restaurant, and rest. Expect hands-on searching; creatures here are small but plentiful. The water is warm year-round.

Good to know

Certification required—beginner divers should book a separate try-dive experience. PADI medical form mandatory; answer honestly and obtain doctor's approval beforehand if needed. Avoid diving if pregnant or with spinal injuries. Not suitable for poor cardiovascular health. Bring reef-safe sunscreen and a camera if you're serious about macro shots.
