In Tulamben on the East coast of Bali you can find the opposite: the submerged wreck of a ship that's never been sunk: the USAT Liberty. She's been torpedoed by a Japanese submarine during WWII but stayed afloat. As she was getting towed towards the nearest shipyard, she was taking on too much water and she's been beached to save her cargo and fittings as she was not deemed repairable. 21 years later, an eruption of Mount Agung produced tremors that made the ship slip off the beach, down to the ocean, where she lies now on a sand slope, turning the location into an amazing diving spot! Nowadays, each time the volcano shakes the island a bit, the water around turns red for a couple days |
