Geography of Bali


Indonesia - Jakarta - Lombok - Semarang - Solo - Yogyakarta - Bali
Exploring Bali Tourist attractions can be easier and comfortable with a little knowledge of the geographical features of this land. Lulled by the waves of Indian Ocean, Bali is a part of Indonesian archipelago lying a few degrees south of Equator. The island of Bali dotted with pristine lakes, hilly regions covered with thick wood and palm fringed costal areas is the jewel of Indonesian archipelago. Spreading over an area of 5, 632 square meters, the geography of Bali is dominated by a string of volcanoes stretched along the width of the island. Gunung Agung with a soaring height of 3000 meters is the highest of them and honored as the "Holy Mother" by Balinese people. The island measures only 140 kilometers long along the east west axis whereas the length of Bali is only 90 kilometers from north to south. Therefore, sightseeing in Bali can be completed within one or a few more days.

Bordering on Sumatra in the East and Papua New New Guinea in the South-east, Bali is a lush tropical haven. Geography of Bali is marked by a varied mosaic of mountainous terrains, coastal lowlands, limestone fringes, winding rivers and picturesque valleys. The northern and southern foothill areas are covered with fertile volcanic soil. The south central domain featuring acres of paddy field is the rice bowl of the country. The forest of the western mountains is a major wildlife sanctuary. Those looking for the fun in tropic sun must visit the beaches in the South made of white sand. Scuba divers can go for a fantastic expedition to see the wonderful marine life at the coral reefs around Menjangan Island.

The versatile geography of Bali is a key reason behind its unique culture. To know about the ideal time to visit this island and Bali Weather in detail tourists can contact Bali Tourist Information Center. Bali Travel Guide gives comprehensive information about the sightseeing places here.
