About this experience
The southern part of our island is a real paradise! Sandy beaches, lush greenery, cliffs, and the endless ocean will accompany you on this trip. I will show you not only the best places for swimming and surfing, but also take you to an ancient temple, to the turtle island, and to a park with a huge statue. You will taste local coffee and tea, and a seafood dinner will be adorned by a dizzying sunset.
What to expect
Beach relaxation and turtles
The journey will start with Turtle Island: people take care of the hatched babies here, and then release them into adulthood. You will observe them up close and see other animals - birds, bats, lizards.
Next, a kaleidoscope of beaches awaits you. Geger is considered the best for swimming and leisurely rest: here the water is clear and calm. And if you prefer extreme activities or want to enjoy splashes and waves, I will take you to Dreamland or Padang-Padang beaches.
Giant god
By desire, we will visit the Garuda Wisnu Kencana Park: it is located on the highest point of the peninsula. The main attraction is the huge statue of the god Vishnu sitting on the bird Garuda. It is taller than the Statue of Liberty! The park also hosts concerts and performances with dances in national costumes.
Then we will go for a free coffee and tea tasting - local farmers will show you their small plantations, tell you about the production of drinks, and offer you to taste them.
Temple on the edge of the cliff
You will visit one of the most important temples on the island - Pura Luhur Uluwatu. I will briefly tell you its history and explain who it is dedicated to. You will enjoy breathtaking views of the ocean cliffs and interact with friendly monkeys. If desired, we can stay until sunset and watch the traditional Kecak dance.
Dinner with the setting sun
The day will end on Jimbaran Beach: here is the famous fish market, and numerous restaurants offer delicious dinner. Tables right on the shore, live music, burning candles - such an atmosphere will set you on a romantic mood, and the delightful colors of the sunset will be one of the most vivid impressions.
Organizational details
I will conduct the excursion for you or my brother Krishna.
