  • Days 1-3

    Canggu & Southern Bali

    Begin your journey in Canggu, Bali's trendiest beach destination. Head to La Brisa eco beach club for your first evening sunset. Get there by 5:30 PM to find good seating. A fellow traveler shared: "The sunset from the rooftop was incredible, and meeting everyone over dinner really helped break the ice." Day 2 is perfect for visiting the famous sea temples of Tanah Lot and Taman Ayun. Visit Tanah Lot at 8 AM to avoid tourist crowds. Bring a sarong and dress modestly. You can rent them there but bringing your own is more convenient. Spend your afternoon exploring Canggu's local cafes and shops. Start Day 3 with surfing lessons at Kuta Beach. A recent visitor mentioned: "The local instructors were so patient. Even complete beginners were standing up by the end of the session!" Remember to put on sunscreen 30 minutes before getting in the water. The Bali sun is strong even on overcast days.

Visit the Sacred Monkey Forest later in the day. Keep your bags secure and avoid making eye contact with the monkeys. Explore the Tegalalang rice terraces on Day 6. Get there by 8:30 AM for the best photo opportunities. Visitors often recommend getting a guide: "Understanding the ancient subak irrigation system really brought the terraces to life."

One traveler said: "Swimming with turtles was surreal - they came so close you could almost touch them!" Spend your final morning on the beach before leaving. Important note: If you're flying from Denpasar, book flights after 7 PM since boat schedules can be unpredictable.
