Sanur Beach, Nearest to Denpasar

Sanur beach is easily reachable from Denpasar, about a 5 to 10 minute drive. Sanur is an amazing beach to watch the sun rises while enjoying the white sandy beach. You can swim but be careful cause the wave is rather great. Sheltered by the coral reef, the waves here are much gentler than other areas of Bali.

There are many hotels spreading from high class (five stars) to cheap one. So you have many choices which hotel you will take. In the last two decades the once sleepy village of Sanur has become an elite international resort, with huge hotel complexes offering first class accommodations and every modern facility to visiting tourists.

Nusa Dua Peninsula

Nusa Dua is a peninsula in the south of Bali. It’s located 40 kilometres from the capital city: Denpasar. There are many tourist areas in this area that comprises of lime-coral stone, such as Jimbaran Beach and Garuda Wisnu Kencana.

Crystal clear water and stretches of white sandy beach of Nusa Dua makes Nusa Dua a perfect place for relaxing your exhausted bodies. Some of the most sumptuous and luxurious hotels in the world find their home in Nusa Dua Bali. You can tee off into the sunset, while watching the gentle waves come from the blue sea and caress the banks surrounding the luscious greens. Tranquil swimming pools under the coconut trees seem to be one with the distant blue sea. Art galleries and numerous shops surround them.

Big Waves in Medewi

Located around 2 hours drive or 72 kilometers west of denpasar and best to leave early in the morning and beat most of it; the area has a forest with “ketket”, or thorny trees. The thorny forest means “Alas Meduwi” in Balinese. Because of this. People agreed to call it “Meduwi”, then changed into the current name of Medewi. The beach is flat, stony, and has long rolling waves, so it is very suitable for surfing and sunset watching.

As soon as you arrive at this west coast, you'll feel blowing wind and great wave...a feel for how surf travel in Bali used to be...Lush tropical landscapes give way to ricefields spanning right to the sea and your hotel is located beachside in front of Medewi's classic long lefthander. There are also heaps of good river mouth set ups along the way, and rarely anyone surfing them.
