Travel Tips
Arrive at least 90 minutes before sunset to secure a good vantage point. The temple itself is only accessible at low tide, but the views from the clifftop are the main attraction. Wear a sarong (available for hire on-site) if you plan to enter temple grounds. Avoid visiting on major Balinese holidays if you prefer smaller crowds.
