About The Drift Bali
The Drift Bali is a northeast Bali shore dive with a beach entry shared by local boats. The bottom is coral rubble and sand with plenty of sponges, so the site suits slow macro hunting more than wide-reef cruising. Expect scorpionfish, lionfish, cuttlefish, morays, nudibranchs, shrimp, and occasional seahorses or frogfish.
