Experience

Visit the volcanic black-sand beach of Kusamba in East Bali to discover traditional methods of salt farming, a technique using sun and wind evaporation that’s been preserved and passed down through generations. Watch as salt farmers gather seawater in buckets to pour over finely raked sand and begin the process of making Balinese fleur de sel (flower of salt). After spending the first part of the day witnessing this time-honored art form, head to Tenganan village to see another tradition—the celebrated weaving process of making Gringsing cloth. Finally, wind down the day of discovery with serene beachfront tapas prepared with freshly harvested salt and just-picked ingredients at the Seasalt restaurant, located at our sister resort Alila Manggis.
