Yeh Sanih is about 17 kilometers from Singaraja. Yeh Sanih is a place with natural water source which is right on the edge of the beach. But the water in this place does not taste salty because it water source comes from Lake Batur. Water from these sources are often used in Hindu religious ceremonies. In this place there is also a temple that dedicated to the Lord Vishnu. The name of Yeh Sanih is derived from YEH SANIA that means South East. Because the potency of the tourism, the Local Government of Bali decided that Yeh Sanih is one of the 21 tourist areas in Bali. Cool sea breezes, tall trees, and the nice panorama over the Bali Strait make for a serene setting.
Visit the 'pura' on the hill, Pura Taman Manik Mas. In the mornings take a swim in the ocean-more like a lake than a sea. Not a soul on the beach to bother you. Quite passable snorkeling 500 meters out, another good snorkeling spot one km away.
Seven km east of Yeh Sanih is the ancient temple Pura Pondok Batu ('Pile of Stones') perched on a small rock face and surrounded by hills, valleys, and twisted frangipani trees. It's said the wandering Javanese priest Nirartha sat on one of the temple's stones and composed poetry.
Inside the temple is a well-crafted but eroded statue of Durga. Nearby on the beach at low tide is a freshwater springs frequented by locals, the water bubbling up from the sand and running into the sea.
