Tanah Lot means "Land [sic: in the] Sea" in the Balinese language. Located in Tabanan, about 20 kilometres (12 mi) from Denpasar, the temple sits on a large offshore rock which has been shaped continuously over the years by the ocean tide.

Tanah Lot is claimed to be the work of the 16th-century janitor baratha. During his travels along the south coast he saw the rock-island's beautiful setting and rested there. Some fishermen saw him, and bought him gifts. Nirartha then spent the night on the little island. Later he spoke to the fishermen and told them to build a shrine on the rock for he felt it to be a holy place to worship the Balinese sea gods.

The Tanah Lot temple was built and has been a part of Balinese mythology for centuries. The temple is one of seven sea temples around the Balinese coast. Each of the sea temples were established within eyesight of the next to form a chain along the south-western coast. However, the temple had significant Hindu influence.

At the base of the rocky island, poisonous sea snakes are believed to guard the temple from evil spirits and intruders. A giant snake purportedly protects the temple, which was created from Nirartha's towel when he established the island.

海神廟（印尼語：Pura Luhur Tanah Lot）是印尼峇里島中西部海岸的一座寺廟，是峇里島六大寺廟之一。廟宇位在塔巴南，距丹帕沙約20公里，蓋在一個經海水沖刷而形成的離岸大岩石上，在海水漲潮時，與其連接的通道會被淹沒，無法通行，必須等待退潮才能進入廟宇參觀。海神廟原文Tanah Lot在峇里語意指「海中的陸地」，

海神廟是峇里島七座濱臨海岸廟宇的其中之一，每一座都在彼此視力可達範圍之內，形成一個西南岸的廟宇群。

海神廟據說是由15世紀的一個神職人員Danghyang Nirartha所建立，他在南部遊覽時，因岩石之美而決定在此休息，一些漁夫見到他時，便送了點禮物。Nirartha認為此地是個可祭拜海神的聖地，之後吩咐這些漁夫在岩石上蓋起這座廟。往後的幾世紀，海神廟成了峇里神話的一部分，

據說在岩石底部，有守護此廟宇的毒海蛇，防止惡靈和入侵者的騷擾，此外，還有一條從Nirartha的圍巾變成的大蛇保護著。
