Columnar Basalt (Sungai Balung)

This natural structure is formed when basalt lava begins to cool at the bottom of the ocean. The cooling process causes the rocks to form hexagonally extended columns. This process is still taking place on the ocean floor especially on the Atlantic ocean floor at the Mid-Ocean Ridge (MOR). This destination was opened to the public since 2016 for both domestic and foreign tourists.
