We spent a day at the Blue Lagoon (just north of Padang Bai) and there was great snorkeling there. The whole bay is coral with some interesting trenches. The beach has a shower available, cushioned recliners overlooking the beach and a nice restaurant too. To enjoy the Liberty wreck you really need to go SCUBA; it is roughly 25 meters. if you are certified, it is awesome. I also suggest a night dive at the wreck. For snorkeling, there is a Japanese wreck south of Amed that is in shallower water. We did not hit that wreck, but I have heard only good things about it. We went diving with Bagus Dive Service (Apa Kabar Villas) and it was fantastic. Sama, the dive master, knows the area and was a great guide. Have a great trip.
