At the tip of cape runs north there is also a traditional fishing village called Tanjung located around 2 km from Bualu. Both village share a myth saying that 2 small island on east beach close to bualu originated from 2 soldiers who were exiled due to theri mistake, and those 2 islands are their belonging of each. Other myth says that when south Bali was shaken by masive quake sung most of the islands previously plenty there. When quake was over people see only 2 island remains, so the people shouting " nu sa dadua" meaning " oh masih ada dua " Second myth about quake is true, that the formation of south Bali foot is believed not without great shaking of tectonic activties, but the workd "nusa" is Malay means land same as "gili" for local word.
