# Bali - Pemuteran #

If you’ve been following my journey thus far you could be excused for thinking that Bali is fertile and green from shore to shore. Not so.
Pemuteran is a diving and snorkelling resort town, gateway to Taman Nasional Bali Barat (Bali Barat National Park), and a fishing village. It lies on the north-west coast, where the climate is seasonally dry and the soils mostly rocky.
I like Pemuteran. It has a good feel to it, at once low key yet busy enough, less crowded than where I'd been, with rocky, uninhabited hills around giving it a good sense of space and places to explore on one's own.
