Kusamba Village Salt Farm, Bali - Wanderela

Kusamba is a large village in Klungkung Bali, and its renown stems from salt production. It is now one of Bali's most popular tourist sites. The village's black sand beach and a clearly magnificent panorama are the key grounds for its appeal to be strengthened.

Fishing and salt manufacture are the principal activities of the residents in this area, and they employ traditional methods to collect salt from sea water and while capturing fish. Visitors to Kusamba Village will be able to watch the salt-making and fishing processes.

On the seashore, salt is produced among palm trees swinging in the gentle breeze. The sand that has been saturated by sea water will be transported to the salt producing hut and rinsed in more sea water. The salt water will be dumped into a palm-tree-made trough. The salt water will evaporate, leaving the salt to dry, and the farmers will collect the salt, move it to the basket, and then pack and sell it.

The best salt in Bali comes from Kusamba, which is high in iodine. In the village, about 20-30 groups of individuals produce salt in the traditional way. Visiting this salt manufacturing hamlet will undoubtedly be an unforgettable experience, and salt making will be phased out of the community in the future because many residents are dissatisfied with the profession. You will have the opportunity to observe the salt-making process.

Location: The village is located at a distance of 20-minute drive from Semarapura City in Klungkung.
