About this place

Tanah Lot Temple

Tanah Lot sits on a rocky outcrop surrounded by the sea, reachable on foot only at low tide. It is one of seven sea temples that guard Bali’s coast and one of the island’s most sacred sites.

At sunset, crowds gather on the cliffs to watch the temple turn into a silhouette against an orange sky.
