Holiday Vacation In Bali

A week-long trip to Bali you organize yourself, might go as follows.

Day 1 - Enjoy Kuta Beach, by finding a shady spot next to a drink seller, chatting with the guys offering surfboards and enjoying the warm breeze. When the vendors stop bugging you, it will start to be fun and you might get the courage to go splashing around with a rental board (at high tide only). Rest of the day is free to enjoy the warungs, shops and bars.

Day 2 - Candi Dasa
Drive from Kuta to Candi Dasa. Today’s big event is visiting the Bali Aga village of Tenganan, just west of Candi Dasa and takes just a hour or so to visit once you’re there. The western section of Tenganan, which is accessed via the same road off of the main road, followed by a left turn is a less touristy area, which also makes the special Geringsing cloth. The rest of the day can be spent enjoying your hotel pool, the sections of white sand beach or checking out what Candi Dasa has to offer.

Day 3 - Amed
Just over an hour’s drive from Candi Dasa, Amed offers a perfect place for relaxation. Black sand beaches are lined with local fishing boats and you will see a real village type of environment. The big activity today is visiting Tirtaganga, which is on the way to Amed. You can enjoy a relaxing swim in the fresh water Royal pool. The surrounding scenery is stunning, so take your time. Back in Amed you might enjoy a nice seafood lunch next to the pool, an afternoon nap or a stroll through a local village.

Day 4 - Amed
Waking up in Amed and realizing you don’t have to go anywhere today is a dream in itself. The big event today is diving on the wreck of USS Liberty in Tulamben. Just 20 minutes north, you can arrange your dive, or snorkel, from one of the local dive operators. Rest of the day can be spent enjoying the local serenity and beauty of Amed.

Day 5 - Lovina
Lovina is a 2 hour drive from Amed and the big event today is visiting the waterfall at Gitgit. Lovina has accommodation for all budgets and a cool restaurant / bar / nightclub, the Volcano which goes till late.

Day 6 - Ubud
A 3 hour drive from Lovina, Ubud a joy to behold. Equipped with home stays, villas, hotels and resorts, you can find what ever suits your style. Today’s big event is a cooking class at Casa Luna. If cooking isn’t your deal, visit the Neka art museum in Campuhan, the finest collection of Balinese artwork. Make sure you stop at Naughty Nuri’s across the street for one of their lethal Martinis. The afternoon can be spent wandering Ubud’s streets, taking a slow cruise trough the scenery, or enjoying an afternoon tea (in my case arak madu) at Cafe Lotus.

Day 7 - Kuta
Just 90 minutes from Ubud, Kuta is a handy last stop, before heading for the airport, 2 miles away. Big event for today is shopping for gifts. That includes gifts for yourself. If you like DVD’s, you can get 70 for free, if you buy 100, price 10,000rp each. Surf-wear, handcrafts and clothing will now be more familiar to you, now that you have been in Bali for a week and understand the pricing a little better. Maybe a sunset drink at Blue Ocean Beach, followed by an extended dinner is on order. Seminyak might be a place for those who like the party scene, as Double Six goes from midnight to 6am.

With transport you can be adventurous. With a relaxed attitude you can enjoy the simple things as well as the big stuff.

Bali is an Indonesian island located at [show location on an interactive map] 8°25′23″S 115°14′55″E / 8.42306°S 115.24861°E / -8.42306; 115.24861Coordinates: [show location on an interactive map] 8°25′23″S 115°14′55″E / 8.42306°S 115.24861°E / -8.42306; 115.24861, the westernmost of the Lesser Sunda Islands, lying between Java to the west and Lombok to the east. It is one of the country’s 33 provinces with the provincial capital at Denpasar towards the south of the island.

With a population recorded as 3,151,000 in 2005, the island is home to the vast majority of Indonesia’s small Hindu minority. 93.18% of Bali’s population adheres to Balinese Hinduism, while most of the remainder follow Islam. It is also the largest tourist destination in the country and is renowned for its highly developed arts, including dance, sculpture, painting, leather, metalworking and music.

Bali, a tropical island in the Indonesian archipelago, is so picturesque and immaculate it could almost be a painted backdrop. It has rice paddies tripping down hillsides like giant steps, volcanoes soaring up through the clouds, dense tropical jungle, long sandy beaches, warm blue water, crashing surf and friendly people who don’t just have a culture but actually live it. In Bali spirits come out to play in the moonlight, every night is a festival and even a funeral is an opportunity to have a good time.

Bali Island, the perfect holiday destination for all ages offers something for everyone. This tropical paradise has a unique blend of modern tourist facilities combined with wonderful shopping and a rich past and heritage. The Balinese people are proud of having preserved their unique Hindu culture against the advance of Islam, the dominant religion throughout Indonesia. This is still reflected in day to day life and can be seen in the numerous ceremonies, Balinese festivals and magnificent temples and palaces. Some of the best surfing beaches in the world can be found on the western side of the island whilst conversely the eastern side is a wonderful haven for families, with beautiful white sand beaches and gentle seas.

Bali Island is a shopper’s paradise particularly for casual and tailored clothing, locally made jewellery, handicrafts, antiques and artifacts. Leather ware is one of the unexpected local bargains with everything from handbags through to tailor made leather jackets and coats, all at unbelievable prices. In fact, prices are so inexpensive, you’re sure to need more room in your suitcase! Try bargaining at the street markets of Kuta, Sanur of Nusa Dua or fixed price shopping at a Denpasar department store. Bali has it all.

For those that want to stay wet, Bali Island has world class scuba diving, snorkelling and wonderful day trips out to Nusa Penida for beach sports and coral viewing.

When the sun sets, the choices are still hard to make - a quiet romantic moon lit dinner or watch the spectacular Balinese Fire Dance or Kecak Dance. For those that want to party, Bali Island has it all with bars, discos and nightclubs.

As a truly international destination attracting visitors from all over the world, restaurants in Bali are extremely cosmopolitan yet inexpensive. Experience not only local delicacies like Nasi Goreng and Sate Campur but also Chinese, Malaysian, Japanese, Italian/European Greek, Moroccan and even Mexican cuisine. We must not forget Bali’s wonderful seafood - local lobster at such prices that you will want to keep coming back for more.

For those more culturally inclined, Bali can offer the peace and tranquility of Ubud high in the hills; the spectacular Mother Temple at Besakih; the ancient capital of Bali, Singaraja and the floating palace at Ujung near the pretty beach area of Candi Dasa. The Scenery is nothing less than spectacular. Jungle, picturesque hillside rice terraces and the awesome magnificence of Kintamani Volcano.

The more active, wanting a break from the idyllic beaches, can experience wonderful golf courses in the mountains at Bedugul and beachside at Nusa Dua, the thrill of white water rafting or kayaking down the beautiful Ayung River; mountain cycling amid scenery you will never forget and organized rice paddy and jungle treks to see the side of Bali most tourists never encounter.

Bali Island, a truly international destination, offers every standard of accommodation ranging from charming yet modest bungalow style hotels in lush tropical gardens for the budget minded through to arguably amongst the most exclusive and sophisticated hotels in the world!
