Pura Rambut Siwi
Temple Sea-facing Balinese temple overlooking the Indian Ocean
On Bali’s western coast, Pura Rambut Siwi sits on black‑lava cliffs and hosts sea rituals; visitors come for ocean views, traditional offerings and carved stone gateways at sunset.
Pura Rambut Siwi is a Balinese sea temple on the western coast of Bali in Jembrana regency, positioned on a rocky promontory overlooking the Bali Sea. The temple is an active place of worship with shrines arranged along the shoreline and is known for its coastal setting and ocean views.
The complex is associated with the island’s chain of sea temples and is visited during ritual events and by tourists for its dramatic coastal location. Access is generally by road from nearby towns in western Bali and the site is often visited for late-afternoon light and sunsets.
Local tradition attributes many coastal temples in western Bali to pilgrimages and priests who established shrine sites along the shore, and Rambut Siwi functions as an active ritual location within that coastal temple network.
