Dive into Ambon

Dive Into Ambon is located in the Maluku Resort and Spa in Baguala Bay, Ambon. The location of the centre allows easy access to the sites, which are very little frequented. You can reach it either directly by boat or with a 10-minute bus ride first and then by boat.

In Ambon, you will discover 2 different types of diving. In Ambon Bay, the sites concentrate an incredible variety of very rare creatures such as the Ambon scorpion fish (Pteroidichthys amboinensis), the leafy scorpion fish (Rhinopias frondosa), the mimetic octopus (Thaumoctopus mimicus), flamboyant cuttlefish (Metasepia pfefferi), numerous nudibranchs, frogfish, Harlequin shrimp (Hymenocera picta), Coleman's shrimp, which finds refuge exclusively in the venomous spines of a poisonous sea urchin, the fire urchin. Sometimes, if you are lucky, you may see the rarest of underwater creatures, the Psychedelic Frogfish (Histiophryne psychedelica).

The south side of Ambon is much less well known, with a turbulent topography of large, colourful drop offs, caves, arches, canyons with more big fish and less macro fauna. Ambon is the perfect place to juggle muck dive and coral dive sites. For photographers who love diving in Ambon, this is a unique opportunity to get macro and wide angle shots! The Maluku, the island's rare boutique hotel, features rooms, studios and cottages with free Wi-Fi, hot water, en suite facilities and air conditioning. The packages offered by Dive Into Ambon, which include overnight stays, full board and diving, are ideal for those who love this place or want to discover this beautiful island. A destination still reserved for insiders!
