Hello everyone, here is my morning trip exploring the mangrove forest area in Perancak Village, Bali, about 10 minutes drive from my home.

As usual I took my motor cyle for my trip, it's much easier for me to travel because the road is so narrow every where I go. I went to this place early morning, around 6.30. I like going in the morning, because the air is fresh, and the scenery looks great in the morning.

I rode across rice fields toward the south part of the island. South part is closer to the sea, and before reaching the sea, there was a vast area of mangrove.

I made few stops around the rice fields because the morning sun looked very beautiful. The water on the rice farm made a beautiful reflection of the trees and the sun.

After few photos, I continued my ride to the mangrove area. The local government has worked to improve the mangrove forest around this place. You could see there are many plants being planted on the water.

The mangrove area is quite easy to reach my motor cyle. Arriving on the mangrove, I parked my motor cyle by the side of the road. There was nobody around there, but every now and then there were few cylist passed by the road.

There was a bamboo bridge from the road to muddy path where mangrove forest located. I took this path to look more of the trees and a pond by the side of the path. After few hundred meters walking, I decided to stop. The path was a bit too muddy for me, and I walked back.

In different the mangrove area, I saw the little mangrove plants on the water. Obviously, these plants were farmed by the local government to conserve the mangrove forest.

Not far from those mangrove farms, there was a road to enter one area of the forest. I could not go further to the forest, since there was a closed wooden gate to it. I could just jump over the fence, but maybe not.

There are also few ponds which is built around the mangrove to breed fresh water fish. I am not sure what fish, but usually tilapia fish or cat fish. They are usually only for local consumption.

I went to the further south until I saw a bridge. There was a small river beneath the bridge. From over the bridge, the area of mangrove around the river could be seen. I took some more photos of the beautiful morning, before heading back.

Thanks for your visit.
