West Bali National Park packs four distinct habitats—mangroves, monsoon forest, savanna, and lowland rainforest—into one small area. With diverse food sources across each ecosystem, the park supports over 160 recorded bird species, including the critically endangered Bali Myna. Walk from Banyuwedang Bay to the salt ponds to cross three habitats in under an hour for an exceptionally rewarding short trip.

01 Mangrove Forest: Kingfishers, herons, and egrets along tidal channels (best on a falling tide).

02 Monsoon Forest: Drongos, treepies, babblers, and bulbuls under an open canopy for easy viewing.

03 Savanna: Junglefowl, shrikes, and starlings—including Bali Mynas around Tegal Bunder.

04 Salt Pond & Shoreline: Migratory waders (plovers, stints, sandpipers, terns) from September to April.
