Go BackMedewi Beach is a beach area on the west coast of Bali. It is one of the spots favored by surfers for its breakers that can reach a height of 7 meters. The beach itself is of black sand with shiny black stones and pebbles here and there. On clear days, you can see as far as Java from here.
Located on a promontory 6 km to the west of Medewi Beach is the sprawling temple complex of Pura Rambut Siwi. The temple faces the wide expanse of the Indian Ocean. It was established by the famous Majapahit priest Dang Hyang Nirartha. It is said to hold a sacred hair relic or rambut siwi, believed to be that of the priest, in its pavilion shrine.
In addition to Pura Rambut Siwi, there are numerous small temples and shrines along the coast of Medewi Beach.
