Spreading over more than 76,000 hectares, West Bali National Park is situated in two districts: Jembrana and Buleleng. The entrance on the Jembrana side of the park is at Melaya on the Denpasar- Gilimanuk road. Visit this place if you re looking for pristine tropical nature. The park is the last natural habitat of the endangered jalak putih - fewer than fifty are believed to be left in the wild, where they are threatened by poaching. The park is also home to banteng, the wild red bull, and the deer-like menjangan. The National Park contains a broad range of natural environments, from mangrove coastal forests to savanna and rainforests shelters.

To enter the National Park one must first go to the park office in Cekik. Accommodation is available in basic huts but you must bring your own bedding and utensils. Experienced guides in the office offer excursions for trekking, diving and snorkeling (see "Buleleng" article). But diving and snorkeling on the Jembrana side of the National Park are not recommended for beginners.
