Abstract
Tejakula has long been attracted a number of researchers as a potential site to be developed. The site is located along the coast of North Bali which, according to several sources, was part of a sailing route for ships to and from other areas in the Indonesian Archipelago and even foreign places. Among the research locations are Pantai Bangsal (Bangsal Coast) Site at the hamlet of Geretek Beberapa (Dusun Geretek) and along Bondalem Beach. The method of data collections were bibliographical study, land survey, and underwater exploration using SCUBA Diving technique. Results of this research include information about the contour and condition of the ocean floor of Sambirenteng, which are trough and muddy, as well as the finding of traces of a rock structure and pottery on Bangsal Coast, Geretek Hamlet, Sambirenteng Village. The structure and pottery show that there were activities on the coast area that were related to harbor or habitation. Furthermore, there are also prehistoric pottery finds, which are now submerged under the water because of severe beach abrasion at the village of Bondalem.
