The Batu Lumbang Mangrove Ecotourism site in Denpasar, Bali, is being developed as a destination combining nature-based tourism with environmental education. The site is supported by PLN Indonesia Power and offers guided walks through the mangrove forest. On September 21, 2026, a group of foreign students was reported taking part in a mangrove forest walking tour at the site. The ecotourism area currently receives more than 100 visitors per day. Located within easy reach of central Denpasar, the site is drawing attention as an initiative that combines environmental conservation, tourism development, and educational programming.

Things to Consider

Since the site is easily accessible from central Denpasar, it can be a good option for a half-day nature excursion. Check current opening hours, entrance fees, and availability of guided tours through local tourism information sources before visiting. Wear comfortable clothing and bring insect repellent, and observe the mangrove ecosystem from the wooden walkways.
