Scuba Diving in Pyramids

The Pyramids of Amed (or Ghost Bay) are an artificial reef at 20m depth. The local community built this reef twenty years ago after the passage of a strong El Nino.  Usually we encounter a mild current here, which sometimes can turn into and amazing thrill when it gets a little stronger.

You might be able to see garden eels on the sandy bottom, followed by blue spotted stingrays, leaf scorpionfish, moray eels, and even reef sharks and green and hawksbill turtles. If you look closely, you can also find small critters such as ghost pipefish and many types of nudibranchs.

The shallowest pyramids are set at 4-5 metres, and the deepest ones at around 25-30 metres. The water temperature ranges from 27°C to 30°C all year round, and the dive site can be accessed directly from the shore or by a short boat ride.
