It was easy to walk to this Bali temple by the sea from the shoreline making it accessible for the majority of the day. Still, as soon as the tide comes in, the rocky perch is completely covered making it appear as though the temple is floating on water.

Imagine that cultural beauty whilst watching the sun go down. Absolutely stunning!

With its bountiful trees and tiered pagodas, this incredible sea temple resembling a ‘life-size floating bonsai garden’ provides a jaw-dropping silhouette to any sunset scene.

It’s, therefore, no surprise that this travel activity is crowded on any given day you visit, but a Bali city trip isn’t complete without it

Tanah Lot Bali being this popular of an attraction, means you need to be fairly astute when it comes to visiting to avoid crowds and get the best sunset view.

This article will outline as much information as possible for you to have the best possible sunset at Tanah Lot based on my personal experience.

Where is Tanah Lot Temple

How to get to Tanah Lot Temple

There are a few options to get to Tanah Lot Temple:

1. USE A TOUR ⭐

If you’ve read my blogs you’ll notice I often recommend using a tour. Contrary to popular belief, tours are not outrageously priced in Indonesia and often the tours are subcontracted to local companies. Local tours know the sights, the background history and especially the roads – which you’ll come to learn in Indonesia is one of the most important aspects of travelling here. In using a tour you’re supporting the local economy. I prefer this route for the hassle-free effortlessly of not having to arrange or plan too much myself 🙂 >> Preferred Tanah Lot Tours

2. HIRE A CAR/DRIVER/TAXI 🚗

This is a great option that also allows you flexibility to plan your itinerary and still have the comfort of a private ride. >>Bali Private Car Hire with Driver . You can also use Apps like Grab and GoJEK to hire a taxi car/motorbike but the only downside to this is you’ll pay for multiple trips if you’re going to a number of places. Also, you may not be able to get a taxi back once you’ve finished at a specific destination.

3. RENT YOUR OWN MOTORCYCLE/CAR (SELF DRIVE) 🏍️

In Bali there are a number of places to rent motorcycles. I don’t advise this, but it is an option for some who have the relevant licences and EXPERIENCE riding a motorcycle in heavy traffic countries in South East Asia

⚠️ WARNING: I never recommend using a motorcycle and driving yourself unless you have the correct driving license to do so and have driven a motorcycle in Indonesia or another population-dense, traffic manic Asian city before .  The motorcycle skills needed to drive in Indonesia are insane. I strongly recommend you DON’T drive a motorcycle in Bali if you do not have the RELEVANT LICENSE, EXPERIENCE, AND TRAVEL INSURANCE . I’ve heard of and seen countless tourists being injured and dying due to motorcycle accidents. Also, note that hospital care may not be at the same level as your own home country so these are all factors to consider. 

How long it will take will depend on where you are in Bali. These are the approximate distances depending on where you are based (as per Google Maps):

Canggu to Tanah Lot – 11 km Seminyak to Tanah Lot – 19 km Ubud to Tanah Lot – 33 km Kuta to Tanah Lot – 22 km Nusa dua to Tanah lot – 36 km

📢 TRAFFIC NOTE: Something that must be mentioned here and that you need to take heed of in Indonesia, is that like other major cities in South East Asia, the traffic can be INSANE ! 5 to 10 km might seem like not very far , but in Bali in the mornings or the evenings, traffic can be a nightmare of more than 60+ minutes.

We stayed in Kuta and even though it was only 20 km away, we sat in traffic for almost 2 hours!  Getting out of Pura Tanah Lot was a bit of a nightmare if you’re not prepared.

TRAVELIST TIP: I’d strongly suggest either having dinner at the restaurants there or grabbing a snack at the endless vendors! Also, squeeze in a bathroom break before you head out (just in case)!

There’s plenty to do at Tanah Lot temple in Bali, before and after sunset , so it makes sense to embrace all you can and leave after the first masses have headed out.

How to Avoid Crowds at Tanah Lot Sunset

1. arrive early.

Most people are arriving for sunset between 18:00 and 18:00, so it makes sense if you want to explore the temple grounds with minimal crowds, I’d recommend arriving at least an hour or 2 before sunset.

2. Find Alternative Places to Watch the Sunset

A great place to watch the sunset is at one of the hilltop restaurants. They have a number of Tanah lot sunset terraces. Depending on your photography needs, you may want to be closer to the ocean to do your photography, but if you’re there for the experience a hilltop restaurant is a great option to get some local cuisine with a view and enjoy the Tanah lot sunset with a sunset cocktail!

3. Head to a Nearby Spa First

As mentioned above, there are great spas in the immediate vicinity of Tanah Lot, so if you’re feeling a bit overwhelmed with the crowds that flock just before sunset, head to the spa to get your zen on and head back to catch the tail end of the sunset or vice versa!

4. Check out the Tanah Lot markets

As you walk through the main entrance, you can lose yourself in one of the numerous lanes lined with souvenir shops, clothing, shoes, food, etc.

Things to do at Tanah Lot

There are some great places near Tanah Lot temple Bali. I highly recommend making the most of your time in the Tanah Lot area by checking out some activities below:

Spa Treatments

Being in Bali (actually anywhere in South East Asia) means there are going to be spas galore and Bali is no different! There are a number of spas in the area of Tanah Lot temple, so why not have a great massage or facial before heading to the shore’s edge to watch the Tanah Lot temple sunset and tide come in?

There were previously a lot more Tanah Lot day spas in the area before COVID-19, but now there is the option to do some wonderful spa treatments and Tanah Lot sunset tour:

Sunset at Tanah Lot Temple and Spa Tour

Eat some local cuisine

Many of the Tanah Lot restaurants serve Western and local cuisine. It just seems fitting that if you’re at this magnificent site, why not embrace the culture and try a local dish? There are a number of r estaurants and even more local vendors serving all types of delights! Make sure to try something and support local!

These are my top picks

🍴 Galang Sunset

🍴 Naty’s Restaurant

🍴 De Jukung Resto and Bar

🍴 Dewi Sinta Restaurant

Photography

Whether you’re a seasoned photographer with a tripod and fancy gear , or simply a person with a camera phone , your Tanah Lot photos are bound to be incredible! The photos that you are able to take at sunset offer the perfect lighting and it’s almost completely impossible to get a bad shot.

Kecak Fire Dance

This is something to do after sunset. The Kecak dance performance is held at the open stage Dewi Sinta Hotel & Restaurant Tanah Lot.

It takes place every day at 18.30. Tickets can be bought at the information office near the beach or can be obtained directly at the Dewi Sinta. There’s also the option to buy them online or include them with your tour guide/company.

Best Time to Visit Tanah Lot Sunset Temple

I’d strongly recommend making sure you’re there for sunset. Tanah Lot sunset Bali hours are any time between 18:00 and 18:30. However, if you want to physically go down to the temple, you’ll need to visit anytime before during low tide.

In terms of when to visit Tanah Lot within the year, Indonesia is a tropical island, there are only two seasons, the wet season and the dry season. Visit during the dry season which is from May to November.

What to Wear to Tanah Lot

Dress etiquette at Tanah Lot is slightly different from other temples on the island of Bali, There are typically no restrictions because you are not physically entering the temple.

As you will most likely be there from late afternoon into the evening, you’ll most likely be in summer clothing, but keep a shawl on hand or a lightweight cover/ jacket for when the sea breeze chill hits in the late evening.

Also, be careful if you’re on the rocks as the Tanah Lot tide comes in, you may need more secure shoes besides flip-flops as the rocks start to get extremely slippery.

What I love about the Tanah Lot temple grounds is that there are plenty of vendors selling clothes, hats, shoes, dresses, etc. So if you want an outfit on the fly, you could literally buy it there!

Temple Etiquette

Even though you are not entering physically entering the temple, it’s only polite to be respectful as it is a temple by dressing appropriately: Wear a top that covers your stomach and appropriate length shorts

• Drones are prohibited from all temples in Indonesia
• Take photos from a respectful distance

If you are watching a ceremony

• Never sit higher than the priest

About Tanah Lot Temple

This is a bit of the Tanah Lot temple history sourced from tanahlot.id . The word Tanah Lot means ‘island in the sea’ in the Balinese language and the temple itself forms an important part of Balinese spiritualism and mythology.

Dating back to the 15th century, Bali Tanah Lot is said to be the work of revered Hindu priest Nirartha. According to legend, Dang Hyang Nirartha was a high priest who travelled from East Java to Bali in 1489 to spread Hinduism.

He arrived in the Tanah Lot area and established a site honouring the sea god Baruna. While attempting to share his teachings with villagers, he faced opposition from the chief, who gathered followers to drive off Nirartha.

The priest opposed and it is said he displaced a large rock on out to sea and transformed his sashes into sea snakes to guard it.

Today, crevices at the base of the temple caused by long-term erosion do hold a number of sea snakes and they are still considered to be the temple’s defenders.

Almost a third of temple Tanah Lot’s rock base is artificial after being fully restored due to the threat of collapse from erosion.

Recommended Tanah Lot Temple Tours

There are a number of tour companies that offer private and group tour options. I highly recommend a Tanah Lot sunset tour . We managed to do a day tour whereby we visited many other temples during the day ending with the Tanah Lot temple sunset tour at the end of the day. The Tanah Lot sea temple sunset is truly the best way to end a temple-hopping day trip.

Tanah Lot Sunset Temple Frequently Asked Questions

Yes the other Sacred temples to explore at Tanah Lot are: Pakendungan temple – located west, 300m from Tanah Lot Temple. Pakendungan temple is the spot where Dang Hyang Nirartha meditated where the holy kris was given to the village chief. Penyawang temple – West of Penataran is an alternative place to pray during the high tide, when people can’t reach the Tanah Lot temple. Batu Bolong temple – 100m west of Enjung Galuh temple. Batu Bolong translates to hollow rock from Balinese. Sometimes this temple is often mistaken for being Tanah lot . Worshippers come to this temple for Melasti or a purifying ceremony. Batu Mejan temple –  100m to the west of the Batu Bolong temple. Beji means sacred spring in Balinese and the people believe that the holy water from this spring can purify anything.

Tanah Lot sunset time is between 18:00 to 18:30. Always check your sunset Tanah Lot times on the day you visit.

Yes! I’m a huge believer in supporting local economies and you will find plenty options for a Bali Tanah Lot tours that use local guides on GET YOUR GUIDE , VIATOR AND KLOOK.

A definitive yes! It’s definitely worth it. Whether you tour Tanah Lot at sunset or during the day, however I strongly recommend sunset, its something that is extremely unique and the colours of the Bali skies are truly surreal.

This will depend on where you heading from or to after visiting. The Tanah lot Ubud trip is 33 kms, the Tanah Lot Canggu travel distance is 11 km. Even though the distances may seem little, you cant actually rely on the Google maps travel time. Our trip from Tanah Lot took more than an hour. Tanah lot to Uluwatu is approximately 45 km away. I’d recommend adding 30 to 45 minutes to anything that you see on Google maps. Tanah Lot to Ubud will be an extremely long trip! As well as the trip from Tanah Lot to Uluwatu. If you’re looking to stay in Ubud, Tanah Lot is going to be a VERY long drive away or back from the temple. Think about staying a bit closer in the evening and maybe heading out to Ubud in the morning.

Pura Tanah Lot Bali Indonesia is located on the shoreline, however, there is no true accessible beach. I recommend heading to Kuta, Canggu, or Seminyak if you’re looking for a proper beach experience.   

No, Tanah Lot temple entrance fees are IDR 60 000 for a foreign adult. See Tanah Lot fees structure above . Visiting Tanah Lot Indonesia is a must when in Bali. There is no way to get in without paying the entrance fees although I do feel the Tanah Lot temple price is reasonable especially if you manage to spend more than an hour or two there.

Bali is also known as Island of the gods, hence there are plenty other temples to visit. Here are some of my top picks: Uluwatu temple, Besakih temple, Ulun Danu Bratan Temple, Pura Saraswati, Goa Gajah, Tirta Empul, Taman Ayun, Tirta Gangga and Goa Lawah. >> Check out my article on the other Must See temples in Bali.  

According to folklore, a Brahmin Prince and Princess came to visit Bali from Java. While enjoying a romantic Tanah Lot Bali sunset together, the royal couple got intimate. It was the princess’ first time and soon after their encounter, the prince left her and refused to marry her. In a fit of rage, the scorned princess cursed the island, dooming all unmarried couples who visit to break up after. Now is this real? I’ve yet to hear of this being legitimate and only read up on in in research to this article. If it was real, I think the overcrowding problem will be solved very quickly!

It is not necessary, but if you are using a tour company, they are usually private tours and most of the time the driver is also your tour guide. I don’t think its necessary to have a guide to experience Tanah Lot.

Tanah Lot is not open for sunrise. A Tanah Lot sunrise tour is unfortunately not possible, but this Bali sunset temple sure makes up for missing it at sunrise.

Low tide time is not certain in Tanah Lot Beach. It usually appears in the early morning and late afternoon.

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.
