National Park
THE National Park is a heaven for a wide range of animals and birds, especially the endangered Bali Starling. An area of over 750 square kilometers in the western tip of Bali has been set aside as a conservation area, and includes open savannas, rainforests, mangrove swamps, coral reefs. Although most of the park is out of bounds to the public, there are a number of trails still open to visitors.
Menjangan Island (Deer Island), a small island off the north coast is a home to the rare Java Deer, can also be visited by boat. Its virgin beaches are good for diving and snorkeling. It is also known for its beautiful coral reefs and as the best site for fishing. If you wish to enter the park, you will need to get a park permit from the office.
Almost the whole of the western tip of Bali (covering over 750 sq km) has been set aside as a conservation area. To enter the park you must be accompanied by an official guide and in possession of a park permit, obtainable at the National Park in Cekik, about 3 km south of Gilimanuk.
