North Bali black-sand muck dive for macro hunters.
Puri Jati is a black-sand muck dive on Bali's north coast, best known for slow macro searches, photographer-friendly subjects, and easy shore access. The site rewards precise buoyancy over a gentle sand slope, with the best dives coming on calm days when the top layer clears and small critters show well along the bottom. It suits divers who are happy to move slowly, scan carefully, and spend time finding animals rather than covering distance.
