The new place has the nuances of white sand, generally sloping so it’s fun to just sunbathe or swim. Some beaches also have a combination of waves which are quite ideal for surfing. Most importantly the beaches are hidden and not easily touched by civilization. Like Yeh Leh Beach has a very alluring view of the sea. Melasti Beach in Ungasan does not only have beach sand and beautiful coral rocks. A few meters from the shoreline there is a high cliff that tourists often climb. From this cliff, you can see the beauty of the blue sea from a distance.
There is another Virgin Beach which has soft sand with clean sea, tempting people to throw themselves. The Green Bowl is located deep down the cliff. To get there, tourists have to go down 300 steps with views from both sides of the bush.

Five days is the minimum time to visit Bali as a vacation spot. Visitors can choose two or more destinations. For example, two days in Ubud and the rest in beach areas such as Kuta and Legian which are excited.

In West Bali there is also a bull race called Makepung every July to October in the Perancak and Jembrana Beach areas.
NORTH BALI, here we don’t have to go all the way to the Bahamas to sail with wild dolphins because every morning when the sun has just risen, a herd of dolphins will appear in the ocean competing to overtake the fishing boats on Lovina Beach. North Bali also has the largest Buddhist temple on the Island of the Gods, namely the Banjar Temple. EAST BALI is an adequate time to enjoy the majesty of Mount Agung and Mount Batur.
