About Menjangan Island In West Bali National Park

Wedged in the West Bali National Park beautifully, Menjangan Island is one of the greatest tourist attractions to explore with our Bali packages. A boat trip from the port of Labuhan Lalang near Pemuteran Beach will take you to this small island. Hectares of land with savannahs and coral reefs are home to a diversified ecology making it a primary location for snorkelers and divers.

The island protects the rare Javan rusa deer commonly known as menjangan and thus the island got its name. The spectacular marine life on the island is a premier reason for nature lovers to head to here for enjoying some extra ordinary time.

Highlights: You can stroll around the island with the help of a park guide and with a permit only that can be arranged with popular tour operators or at the park office.

Segara Giri Dharma Kencana Temple is one of the major shrines which has a towering seaward facing statue of Ganesh.
