Kampung Baru

Kampung Baru sits inland in Maluku, Indonesia, and isn’t a coastal dive hub. The nearby Banda Sea and Indian Ocean area offer famed seawater diving, but within the city itself there are no dive centers or dive sites. Access to diving generally involves traveling to coastal towns or islands in Maluku, then joining local operators for reef, wall, and pelagic sites. Given its inland location and elevation, the city functions more as a regional hub for culture and logistics than a diving base; divers typically plan day trips or transfer to coastal gateways for on-site diving.
