South Bali
Kuta Beach is the first name that comes to mind when talking about a holiday in Bali. Its gentle stretch of white sand extends as far as the eye can see, and since the 1970s this beach has been a mainstay of tourism on the Island of the Gods. To this day its charm has never faded — especially at sunset.

Yet this is precisely its appeal: outstanding snorkelling and diving activities. Foreign tourists regard the Amed coastline as a paradise for Bali's underwater world.
West Bali & Jembrana
Menjangan Island is a small island located 5 miles northwest of Bali and is part of West Bali National Park. "Menjangan" means deer in the local language, as the island is inhabited by a herd of wild deer. Its harbour sits next to Mimpi Resort. Menjangan is famous for the best wall diving in Bali.

West Bali & Jembrana
Medewi has the feel of Southern California: long waves that tumble and crumble for nearly a kilometre over black pebbled sand, backed by thick forest. Medewi is a workable point break friendly to beginner and intermediate surfers. Two to three hours' drive from Kuta, the area is far quieter and more relaxed.
West Bali & Jembrana
Bali is not only about beaches in the southern region. Bali consists of nine regencies and cities, one of the most interesting being Jembrana — an area nicknamed Bumi Makepung.

Nusa Penida
We recommend exploring Broken Beach first, where a signposted trail will lead you to Angel's Billabong. Here you can swim in natural rock pools known as a natural infinity pool. Swim only at low tide, and wear reef shoes as the seaweed-covered rocks can get slippery.
Nusa Penida
Kelingking Beach is a secluded and beautiful beach in Bunga Mekar Village on the southwest coast of Nusa Penida.

From the upper viewpoint, Mount Semeru forms the perfect backdrop.
Bromo & Lumajang
Kapas Biru in Pronojiwo Village, Lumajang, stands around 100 metres tall with a flow so soft it resembles cotton — hence its name, which means blue cotton. The descent down hundreds of steps through tropical forest is part of an experience that is both challenging and refreshing.
Bromo & Lumajang
Coban Sriti sits in the same area as Tumpak Sewu and Kapas Biru, making the three a single waterfall exploration package in Lumajang.
