The Wallace line was subsequently drawn between Bali and ...... Lembongan Island. In 1986, the skipper of sailing yacht was visiting the Archipelago on his way to Europe, and dropped anchor in the bay of Tanjung Sanghiang on Lembongan Island. This is where he discovered the magical location of what would later become the Waka Nusa Resort. The Skipper having helped developthe resort has since sailed on. He now lives in Australia. Nusa Lembongan is situated 12 kilometers East of Bali. The resort is facing Sanur and the well known Gunung Agung volcano (3.100 meters) and because of its isolated location and limited infrastructure, the island has been preserved from the growth and progress that has evolvedin Bali over the last ten years. The Hindu population of 3.500 is divide into 2 villages and still reliant on seaweed farming and fishing,and this is the economic resource of the island to this day.

The resort has 10 Lanais built amongst a palm tree plantation edging the whites and beach of Tanjung Sanghiang; a turqoise lagoon andcoral reef with the Segara temple and its centuries old Kapok tree as its setting.
