Hello Tropical Travelers!!! 

Bali is one of the most beautiful places to visit. So many great places to see and find adventure to in Southeast Asia. So, Which Area Of Bali Is Right For You?

Read along, dream along...and plot your course!

 
Bali is an Indonesian Island located just east of Java. It was initially a surfer's paradise, and now it is a popular tourist destination in Southeast Asia. This ancient island is now a mix of tourist areas and traditional culture. There are many different ways to experience Bali, and it all depends on what you are looking to get out of your trip. 
 
Different Areas Of Bali
The different areas of Bali will appeal to different people depending on the type of trip that you are planning. Southern, Central, Eastern, and Western Bali all have their own personalities and beauties for you should you decide to visit.

Southern Bali
The southern coast of Bali is the tourist mecca of the island. This area of the island is where you will find tourist hotels, lively night-life, and the best of the local bars. There are various cities in southern Bali that will lend themselves to having great offerings for you if you are looking to have a tourist experience.

  • Canggu- As one of the more laid-back towns of this region. Canggu has a type of "surfer vibe" that you would find in other places like Venice Beach, California, and at Bondi Beach in Sydney. You will see that digital nomads and entrepreneurs choose to live here, so that they can enjoy the artisan beers and organic restaurants.
  • ​Seminyak- A town in southern Bali, Seminyak is going to have the major resort hotels, high-end villas, and the hippest beach bars around. If you are looking for a modern-day vacation in Southeast Asia, this would be the area for you.  
  • Jimbaran- The town of Jimbaran is dotted with beautiful white sand beaches and 5-star resorts. It is a great town if you are bringing kids because many of the beaches in Bali have rough seas and black volcanic sand. Jimbaran is a great place to go for a family vacation.

  • Uluwatu/Padang Padang- A surfer's paradise, in the center of Southern Bali. These great beaches are situated on the Bukit Peninsula, and wisdom would note,  experienced surfers only should ride the waves that are found here.

  • Nusa Dua- This area of Bali is located on the southern-most tip of the island. The beaches here are considered to be the best in Bali. You will discover that there are two distinct areas in this part of Bali; the resort area and the town of Tanjung Benoa with its’ local shops and restaurants.

Central Bali
The central region of Bali is far more than just the "geographical center" of the island. The central region is also the cultural, historical, and spiritual center of Bali. It is visible in the natural beauty of this region and in the ancient traditions that are still carried out to this day.
​
  • Ubud- For decades, Ubud was a sleepy artists village, that was then transformed into its’ own little metropolis. The rice terraces and mountains of this town form the backdrop and base in which you can explore the temples, museums, and heart of Bali.

Eastern Bali
This section of Bali has a down-to-earth atmosphere. It is far more toned down than, say, southern Bali.

  • Tulamben-
Known for its' scuba diving. There isn't much else to offer in this area. In the sea, just off the coast, is the wreckage of the USS Liberty. This town is also the perfect jumping-off point for those who are headed to the Gili Islands.

  • Sanur- This is the perfect area for family trips. The beach of this mellow town is surrounded by a picturesque coral reef that keeps the waters calmer and shallower. Thanks to that, this creates a perfect place for the kids to play. It is also home to the largest children’s playground and café, Peekaboo.

​Western Bali
Western Bali is considered to be most representative of what “real Bali" is. Most of it is mountains, volcanoes, rice paddies, and tourist-free.
​
Balian Beach-  Balian Beach is considered to be more of a "secret spot" in Eastern Bali because there are not many tourists who venture here. The black sand beach offers great surfing and beautiful coves to explore with your kids.

​​Nyanyi- Is the rural area of this section of Bali. If you are traveling here, you are going to want to see the UNESCO Heritage Site of Jati Luwih rice terraces, the Tanah Lot Temple, and Mount Batukaru.  You will want to go and surround yourself with nature and the history of Bali here.

Clearly, Bali has something to offer for everyone. No matter what type of trip YOU are looking to take--and who is going on the trip with you--Bali will likely have what you want. I encourage you to definitely take the time and do a little bit of research before you book, and figure out what is going to work best for you.
