Where to stay in Canggu
I went to Bali with a group of 13 friends and here's the link to the stunning villa where we stayed:
Another great accommodation option in Canggu if you’re travelling solo or as a couple is the Kirana down below:
Ubud
Ubud Palace
Ubud Palace is a cultural gem that reflects the island's rich heritage and royal history. Built during the 19th century, the palace served as the official residence of the royal family of Ubud. Today, it stands as a prominent landmark and a centre for traditional Balinese dance performances.
Monkey Forest
Home to hundreds of long-tailed macaque monkeys, this lush forest reserve offers visitors a unique opportunity to observe these playful creatures in their natural habitat. Beyond its inhabitants, the sanctuary is dotted with ancient temples, serene pathways, and moss-covered statues that evoke a sense of mystique and reverence.
Take a Yoga class
Radiantly Alive is all about yoga and community. Go for a class or a full retreat!
Tegalalang
These iconic terraced fields cascade down the lush hillsides, creating a stunning patchwork of green hues that stretch as far as the eye can see. Carved into the landscape over centuries by Balinese farmers, these rice paddies not only provide sustenance but also offer a serene escape into Bali's rural heartland. Visitors can wander along narrow pathways between the rice paddies, taking in panoramic views and capturing unforgettable photos against the backdrop of swaying palms and coconut trees.
Tis Cafe
Overlooking the terrace you will find this wonderful restaurant with a pool! The best spot to grab a bit about wandering the rice terrace.
Kuta Beach
Watch the sunset on the beach or take a surf lesson!
Crumb & Coaster
Snorkel at the Blue Lagoon
Blue Lagoon is renowned for its vibrant marine life and crystal-clear waters making it a haven for snorkelling enthusiasts.
Nungnung Waterfall
Rent a scooter and make your way to Nungnung. Cascading gracefully from a height of 50 meters, the waterfall creates a mesmerizing spectacle as it plunges into a tranquil pool below, surrounded by lush tropical greenery. The waterfall is accessible via a picturesque trek down a series of steps through dense foliage, rewarding hikers with stunning views and the soothing sound of cascading water.
