This is a tiny, remote village in one of the least visited areas of Bali. It is very much a surfing hot spot, and most visitors who do stay
here stay for that reason alone. For non-surfers, it does offer a
glimpse of what so much of Bali was like before the growth of mass
tourism in the 1970s, and is a great place to relax.
Medewi is located about 75 kilometers west of Denpasar on the main south coast road, about 34 kilometers further west than the town of Tabanan. Anyone who traveling from the south of Bali by road to the west coast port town of Gilimanuk will pass by here.
The origin of Medewi as a place name. This area was a forest with many Ketket or thorny trees. In Balinese, thorny forest is Alas Meduwi hence the place was named Meduwi which then became Medewi.
