Water blow can be found on a steep, narrow slope sandwiched between two high rocks in Nusa Dua overlooking the Indian Ocean.
Due to the shape of the rocks and the natural fissures found within them, when strong waves rush in and hit the surface, the seawater is forced through the narrow cracks and explodes out at the top, creating a natural sensation.
More and more people are visiting the site just to watch the rolling waves burst up in front of them and feel invigorated by the ozone-rich air.
Located around 30 minutes from Ngurah Rai International Airport, the water blow is within Nusa Dua resort area, on the tip of the Peninsula islet.
The panoramic beauty of the site with its seemingly endless vista of the Indian Ocean, rocky cliffs and grass field, attracts many who sit there for hours in serenity and a number of small gazebos have been built to provide sitting areas for visitors.
Thanks to the stunning scenery and wide expanse of ocean, the water blow site has become popular for photo shoots, especially for pre-wedding shots.
Anom Manik, a photographer, said he had frequently held pre-wedding photo sessions there for clients from Taiwan and China.
