Stayed at the Hidden Paradise hotel, and hired snorkelling gear from a guy on the beach. 25,000 for 2 days.
You can snorkel right in front of the hotel and the coral and fish life is rife, the water very clear and you are very bouyent but the water was not too salty!!!
There is an old Javanese ship wreck about 2 kms away where you can take a boat ride to and snorkel or drive up and just go from the beach as it is about 30 meters off shore and in about 8 meters of water..
A standard room at the hotel is US$30 a night.
Amed is a 2.5 hour drive from Kuta and also the meals at Amed are just excellent!!!
Cheers, BOB
