Pura segara temple to the seaside

"Sea temples", a pura that are located by the sea to appease the sea Gods and deities. It is usually important during the Melasti ritual. One example of this type of temple is this complex of the Pura Champuhan Windhu Segara.
Each of the temples is traditionally said to be visible from the nearest and form a "chain" around the coast of Bali. Many of the most important sea temples are located on the southwest coast of the island. The positions of the temples were intended to provide a chain of spiritual protection for the island of Bali.
