History
Pura Luhur Uluwatu is one of Bali’s key sea temples, located on uplifted limestone cliffs and associated with centuries of local maritime ritual; the staged Kecak dance evolved in the early 20th century from trance rituals and Ramayana storytelling.
Conservation
Both Uluwatu and Jimbaran have seen pressure from tourism and plastic waste; favor local vendors who minimize single-use plastics and follow signage to protect temple flora and fauna.
