Bali’s Coast
When you visit Bali rain seems to be the main concern rain can “ruin” your holiday, it is hard to enjoy Bali when rain pour from one morning to the next morning. The best time to come is between April to October when the dry season is “on”.
More than sun and sand wait every of you to visit Bali with beautiful coast. Kuta with its pounding waves for surfing, Sanur, with its protecting reef for a quiet family swim, Uluwatu, with its fascinating rock pools, and Benoa Bay’s mangrove forest all host a world of creatures, large and small with habitat in the shallow waters of island’s coast.
KUTA
Visit Bali beach that run along Tuban, Kuta, Legian and Seminyak has no offshore reef and is full of energy, with large waves pounding onto gently sloping beach. The Bali ’s sea creatures here have to be either good burrowers, the Donax shells and sand dollar are found just below the surface of the fine sand.
Also Bubbler crabs live below the sand’s surface, they rebuild their burrows twice each day, leaving circles of sand.
ULUWATU
Uluwatu Temple is flanked on both sides by steep cliffs and sandy bays, it is possible to walk down to the northerly bay, where the local people gather a wide rang of foods from the rocks and coral, people with hooked sticks search the flat reef at the low tide looking for turban shells, whose meat makes a tasty meal.
the octopus and lobster are also popular finds.
SANUR BEACH
Sanur is protected from the force of the ocean waves by a coral reef ranging from 300 to 3000 feet offshore, so the waves on the shore are rather small and gentle. Out in the meadows of the sea grass are brittle stars, starfish, sea cucumbers, hermit crabs, free living fungia corals, and sea urchins, waders, such as the common sandpiper, search for food among the bountiful life at the sea’s edge.
BENOA BAY
This bay is fringed by the last mangrove forest on Bali, at the low tide of soil surface is teeming with fiddler crabs, periwinkles and barnacles cover the roots of Rhizophora trees.
In the sandy mud in front of the mangroves, cockles are much sought after as food. In creeks running through Benoa Bay’s mangrove forest some two dozen species of fish can be found, including the piper fish and small puffer fish.
