Jungut Batu on Nusa Lembongan210 viewsJungut Batu on Nusa Lembongan is home to lots of budget accomodation. The clear water and sandy beaches make this an ideal alternative to the relative hussle and bussle of Bali. Seaweed farming is one of the primary industries (it's exported for use as a food gelling agent and in cosmetics). The squares of seaweed can clearly be seen under the water.%326 %01, %2003
