Things that make Tanjung Benoa beach become the choice to do water sport activity in Bali, because Tanjung Benoa beach has calm sea wave which is calm and very safe for water sport activity in Bali. Very different from the Kuta beach Bali which has a slightly higher sea wave and more suitable for surfing sports activities.Tanjung Benoa Beach, located at the most southeastern tip of the island of Bali and adjacent to the tourist attraction of Nusa Dua. If you depart from Ngurah Rai airport to Tanjung Benoa, you will travel 15.7 kilometers. With approximate travel time approximately 30 minutes. 

Tanjung Benoa water sports activities are conducted from 09:00 to 15:00, because after 15:00 hours the sea water will recede and the speed boat used for water sport activities does not operate optimally.Safety in conducting watersport activities Tanjung Benoa Bali is highly prioritized by providing trained and experienced instructors and the tools used must also meet safety standards. Accident insurance coverage is also provided to consumers.

But you do not have to worry about the costs to be incurred, without time limit you can enjoy the beach atmosphere and free of charge.

There are no merchants or masseuse milling, so for you who are seeking for peace, we promise you will not be disturbed. 

Thanks to the well-planned layout of the Nusa Dua tourism complex, you have an upmarket shopping complex, superb facilities and manicured gardens that seamlessly blend in with a luxurious 18-hole golf course – all within a hort walk from your hotel. Although Nusa Dua is Bali’s most developed resort area, you can still find cultural attractions here. These range from temples, a museum housing arts and artefacts from Indonesia and the Pacific, and unique natural landmarks around its scenic peninsula. Dreamy beachfront settings overlooking clean white sand beaches make Nusa Dua an idyllic place for honeymooners. Some resorts feature great kids’ clubs, making Nusa Dua an ideal beach destination for families.

This tourist place has easy access to reach. From Kuta, you only need about 20-30 minutes, while from Jimbaran, the required time is shorter, which is about 15 minutes. If you are from the airport and want to go directly to Nusa Dua Beach, the time is only about 20 to 30 minutes.

Here you can experience Bali’s all-time favourite seafood dining experience on the beach, which serves up great barbecues and cold beers that go down particularly well with the dramatic sunsets. For a more refined and upscale luxury dining atmosphere, you don’t need to go too far, as lavish beach clubs and restaurants offering haute cuisine are within walking distance along the sand.

Besides the showpiece temple complex that is surrounded by the Indian Ocean, one among our popular temple tour itineraries also includes a stopover at another regal site – an idyllic temple complex called Taman Ayun that is surrounded by a spring-fed freshwater moat rather than crashing waves.

Starting off in the early afternoon from Kuta Beach, we head north on our combined tour to first reach Taman Ayun Temple. This significant temple complex is located in the village of Mengwi, an hour’s drive north. A remnant of the old Mengwi kingdom, the 17th century temple stands gracefully with its four different divisions and palatial surroundings.

The complex features terraced courtyards set in well-kept grounds with manicured lawns, and which is surrounded by a large manmade moat. The overall atmosphere is a soothing one and you can easily lose a sense of time here. Also, don’t miss the bell tower with ladders you can climb up for a spectacular birds’ eye view!

After a good hour enjoying the gorgeous surrounds of Taman Ayun, we set out west entering the Tabanan regency, with a stop at Alas Kedaton Monkey Forest. Alas Kedaton is a 12Ha nutmeg forest that is home to hundreds of grey long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis). Within the forest is also a temple, and out on the perimeter are art shops and small restaurants selling refreshments.

Then, we head towards the highlight of our tour: Tanah Lot Temple. Various art shops and galleries displaying knick-knacks line the meandering sidewalks, and approaching the coastline, the sea temple comes to view. At low tide, you can walk down to the rocky shore alongside Tanah Lot for a closer photo shot of this breathtaking structure.

The rock base is where the legendary ‘guardian’ sea snakes dwell in crevices around the Tirta Pabersihan fountain, which is a natural spout and source of holy water for all the temples in the area. A priest usually stands by to bless visitors with a sprinkle of this holy water over their heads. Entry to the rock temple is normally restricted only to praying pilgrims.

During high-tide, the western seas are rough and extra caution must be taken near the crashing waves and wet rocks, but you can still capture some great images and enjoy the spectacle, as the best views are indeed from a distance, onshore. There are also many other side highlights to be viewed here, including numerous smaller temples that host prayer sessions for various aspects of agrarian life, from good rice harvests to rites of passage.

To sum up, this tour offers a great half-day (approximately six hours) to see three of Bali’s iconic temples – one placid and green and surrounded by still freshwater, another in a lush nutmeg forest 'guarded' by monkeys, and another surrounded by crashing blue waves. You are sure to experience sights that will be embedded in your memory for a lifetime.

Most Balinese and visitors regard Nyepi as a much-anticipated occasion. Some expats and those coming from neighbouring islands prefer escaping Bali for the day rather, due to restrictions that surround the observance. Some others check coinciding dates ahead before their Bali trip, avoiding it altogether. Anyhow, Nyepi is worth experiencing at least once in a lifetime. Especially, since the preceding and following days offer rare highlights to behold!

Observed from 6 a.m. until 6 a.m. the next morning, Nyepi is a day reserved for self-reflection, and as such, anything that might interfere with that purpose is restricted. The main restrictions are no lighting fires (and lights must be kept low); no working; no entertainment or pleasure; no traveling; and, for some, no talking or eating at all. The effect of these prohibitions is that Bali's usually bustling streets and roads are empty, there is little or no noise from TVs and radios, and few signs of activity are seen even inside homes. The only people to be seen outdoors are the Pecalang, traditional security men who patrol the streets to ensure the prohibitions are being followed.

 The Bali Swing is actually several different swings of varying heights, with more being currently built. 

They overlook a beautiful palm tree valley with a river, giving the real Balinese jungle look and feel. It is a very beautiful setting and you can see why it has become so popular.

The Bali Swing gets incredibly busy, so it pays to turn up at the opening time, the earlier the better. 

Ideally you won't want the feeling of a queue developing while you're trying to get the perfect shot. When we were there, it was getting really busy even at 9am. 

The early morning is also when the light is at its best, soft and not directly in the shot. If you go in the late afternoon you run the risk of shadows and the middle of the day could create harsh contrasts.

The Bali Swing opens at 8am, but the pickup from town doesn't start until 9am. Even though a free pick up is appealing it is better to get there earlier, so we'd advise going under your own steam if you are really after that perfect photo.

According to the Quran, Muhammad departed the Holy Masjid in Mecca to go to Masjid al-Asqa in Jerusalem. From Masjid al-Asqa, Gabriel, an angel of God, guided Muhammad through the Kingdom of God and the seven heavens.

After meeting prophets at each level of heaven and seeing many wonders that surrounded him, Muhammad traveled across the seventh heaven to ascend to Paradise. In Paradise, the wonders of Heaven increased in both quantity and scale.

Muhammad eventually reached the Throne of God. At the Throne of God, God formally ordered Muhammad to found Islam. God promised that Muslims who are obedient will be rewarded with the wonders of Paradise. Muhammad returned to Earth to carry out his mission and found Islam.

You will find Easter vigils, candlelight services, egg decorating, and even the Easter Bunny in parts of Indonesia, much like in other countries where Easter is observed. You will also hear people greet one another with, “Selamat Hari Paskah!” (Happy Easter!).

If in Jakarta at Eastertime, be sure to see the imposing, Gothic-style Jakarta Cathedral, built over a 100 years ago. The Catholic archbishop holds Easter services in the cathedral each year.

Also, on the eastern half of the island of Flores there have been re-enactments of the crucifixion of Christ since colonial times. You can see men tied onto large, wood crosses and carried through through the streets on Good Friday. Two statues, one of Mary and the other of Jesus, are also carried in a procession in the town of Larantuka, ending at the Cathedral of the Queen of the Rosary.

Besakih is known as the Mother Temple of Bali and is simply the most important temple for the whole of the island. It is actually more like a complex of temples in one very large compound and its known and loved for is its dramatic location on the southern slopes of Sacred Mount Agung. It is known as and accepted as Bali’s Mother Temple for more than a thousand years. Besakih is quite unique as it basically consists of more than 80 individual temples. The main one is Pura Penataran Agung.

Besakih was hit a few times by earthquakes (e.g. 1917) and also several volcanic eruptions of Mount Agung took their toll, particularly a major one in 1963. The complex did get damaged here and there but in 1963 the the lava flow did pass sparing the temple from complete destruction. This event is now of course part of the overall legend of Pura Besakih. The people believe that the deities showed their true power but without destroying the holy temple completely. 

Besakih being the biggest and holiest of the island's temples plays a significant role not only for the villages and families nearby but for entire Bali. Many important festivals are celebrated here. It is a temple open to every devotee - from any caste groups. It is simply the prime spiritual centre for all Balinese. 

The best time to visit is the early morning, so you avoid the many groups that come here in tour buses.

There are several routes branching off from the Jalan Uluwatu main road that leads down to two halves of Nyang Nyang Beach, one of them is via Jalan Batu Nunggulan and right at the cliff edge of Villa Plenilunio. From this end, you need to continue on an approximate half-hour trek down moderately rugged terrain and flight of stairs – a journey well worth it thanks to the splendid views over the limestone hillside covered in lush greenery and flowering bushes. Sounds and views of the ocean accompany your steady descent.

Beyond this is the prize view when you sink your feet into the coarse sand. The deserted terrain is bordered by slanting cliffs as far as your eyes can see, with thin mists hanging above the ocean. Out at sea you will be able to see the natural reef that breaks the incoming tides, allowing for calm and clear waters bordering the coast. The long coastline makes for a good walk, with virtually no other human in sight most of the time, other than occasional local seaweed farmers tending to their crops, or bold and lonesome surfers out on the reef break, having their thrill of a lifetime (only for the advanced, and those really determined on carrying their boards down and up the hill again). There are actually two halves of Nyang Nyang Beach, divided only by a broad grassy headland. Near the western end of the eastern half of Nyang Nyang, you’ll be treated to a lone split shipwreck on the sand. You can stay on for sunset here or make the climb up again before dark. It has also become a camping site for die-hard travellers and weekenders as the deserted ambiance makes it an excellent spot for bonfires under the stars and for those willing to set up tents and camp the night. Swimming out is not recommended; obviously there are no lifeguards on patrol. Also, be in good shape and bring adequate rations and drinking water – there are also no food stalls or peddlers, other than one at Nyang Nyang Beach’s western half, selling drinks and colourful beach cloths.
