The shoreline of the popular Kuta-Legian main
beach, being invaded by large pockets of Greenish brown bacterial feeding
algae |
 |
An obvious smelly visible warning by nature
to the prospective sea-goer, a result of pollution run-off from rivers
and such. Water analysis tests taken during June at Air limbah and Legian
beach areas showed extraordinary high pollution rates. |
 |
A Typical sight of any plot along or beside
the Bali beaches, if not on the beach itself. Trash and illegal constructions
can be found. |
 |
Years of garbage burial along many of Bali's
beaches exposed after June's 1997 swell. Every conceivable kind of
garbage could be found! |
 |
Both the eastern 'Nusa Dua' and the western
'Kuta-Legian' shorelines of Bali have been used as dumping grounds for
years. Now the appearance of questionable structures on the beaches add
to the pollution which currently show no end in sight. |

Water sample report by the University
Udayana, BALI. The samples taken 31.5.97 and 2.6.97 from the main
beach shoreline show extraordinarily high levels of coliform and E.Coli.
Note that the levels increased tremendously after the swell of 1.6.97.
On many areas of the beaches the crab population has totally diminished. |
