KUTA - The high waters that washed ashore two days ago have left a lot of trash at some of the southern beaches which has to be cleaned up. In the last two days, many people have started gathering the trash - wood, plastic and others - on big piles on the beaches of Jimbaran, Kuta, Legian and Seminyak. In some places with the help of heavy equipment because the trash that washed ashore consists of wooden logs.
In some places the beach has eroded heavily overnight, so there was need of moving the sand at some places. This was also done by heavy equipment and most sand had to be replaced on the beaches of Kuta towards the airport and Jimbaran.
Two days ago, high tides together with strong winds caused seawater to rise. The water covered all of the beaches and washed inland up to a hundred meters. Several shops and restaurants were forced to close for a few days to clean up and remove the sand from the floor and furniture. The streets in the area are still full of sand, but the water itself has retreated to normal levels.
The beach of Kuta is scattered with piles of trash which have to be cleaned.
