The missus picked the tourist site for her Bali bucket list, so I planned a sunset visit and got there with 30+ minutes before the sun set (at 6.18pm that day). Can't recall exactly how much we paid to get in, but it should have been about IDR100+k for 2 adults, a child and the rental car. There's a bit of walk down from the carpark to the beach, walking through a wide avenue straddled by the typical souvenir shops. When we got to the beach, it was already filled with a couple of hundred sightseers who walked further out due to the low tide (high tide would have been a better sight?). Pretty impossible to take a shot that would not have someone else in it. Tanah Lot and its temples are beautiful, but on hindsight, it might have been better if we went during the low-peak times. We had a mini-phototaking competition within the family, looked at a few clear ponds that appeared due to the low tide, and left shortly after a 30 minute visit.
