Banyu Pinaruh: cleansing at the sea and springs

The day after Saraswati, many Balinese go to the sea, rivers or holy springs at dawn to bathe and purify themselves. Beaches and water temples are crowded with families early in the morning.

Plan it: Planning a sunrise swim or a visit to a water temple? Go later in the morning, and give families space at the water’s edge.
