Boat lifters, pushers and pullers at Jimbaran Bay. Bali
Every morning in Jimbaran Bay, South Bali, the fishermen bring their perahus* to shore to unload their nightly catch of Tuna and other fish species while others leave the bay of Jimbaran in search of more fish.
These perahus are carried, lifted and pushed by hand on the sand of Jimbaran by men who get paid a small token of fish for their hard labor.
(* Perahus: dugout boats with bamboo floats on either side)
