Sunday in Yeh Gangga Bali

Sunday here in Bali was spent for me, exploring the beach, roads and rice paddies of Yeh Gangga, just up the coast from Tanah Lot.


The area is almost totally untouristed, has sweeping, empty, dark sand beaches. Rice paddies come right down to the back of the beach and you can see the water, that has trickled all the way from the mountains, making it final descent to the beach.

I was intending to follow a hike suggesed in my guidebook, but the directions were a bit sketchy. I ended up bushwhacking through dry paddy fields, which were like ovens, tethered cattle looking on, and my wondering how long it would take, to get back to my motorbike. There is some lovely scenery though, around Yeh Gangga, and people were nice. More on that trip besok (that’s tommorrow for you touro’s).
