This is a peninsula in the southern part of Bali that used to be a fishing village and old dock. This area offers plenty of water sports activities such as jet skiing, parasailing, fly fishing, snorkeling and diving. Not only that, but there is a mangrove marsh at the western side of the peninsula that visitors should definitely check out.
Located at Tanjung Benoa, the turtles on this island are protected by the government as they are an endangered species.
