Pura Dalem Sakenan is a significant temple on Serangan Island, just off Sanur's coast. It is dedicated to the god Shiva and is known for its annual odalan (temple anniversary) celebration, which draws thousands of devotees. The temple's architecture features intricately carved stone gates and multiple shrines. Visitors can explore the peaceful grounds, observe daily rituals, and enjoy views of the surrounding sea and mangroves. The temple is also a starting point for the traditional 'mekiyis' procession during the odalan.
