Liberty Coral Garden is a shallow Tulamben shore dive beside Liberty.
Liberty Coral Garden is Tulamben's shallow shore-access reef beside the Liberty wreck, with anemones, statues, coral bommies, and a sandy slope that make it good for relaxed exploration, training dives, and night dives. It is often used as the quieter alternative to the busier wreck area, with plenty of macro life and easy-to-read terrain once you clear the beach entry.

Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Good for training dives, refreshers, night dives, and relaxed exploration over the coral and statue garden.
Freediving
The shallow garden can suit easy breath-hold practice on calm days, but the site is still better treated as a scuba-first shore dive.
Snorkeling
The shallow reef can work for snorkeling on calm days, especially close to the coral garden rather than the wreck side.
