Bali Uncovered: Beaches, Temples & Terraces

Welcome to magical Bali. First you head deep into the hills to stunning Munduk, off the usual tourist trail.

Enjoy a day exploring waterfalls, verdant mountains and wildlife, before settling in for dinner back at your ecolodge, under the big starry sky.

Head further east today to iconic Ubud, perhaps the most cultural spot in all of Bali. You'll be staying at a boutique surrounded by lush vegetation and rice terraces. It's an atmospheric place, and the town itself is home to a great range of bars and restaurants.

Today you head out with your expert local guide to experience the waterfalls and rice terraces that make this area famous.

You'll also soak in buddhist temples and the sort of culture that makes this island so loved and well known.

Try your hand at Indonesian cooking today, or perhaps head to Lake Batur, known for its iconic temple.

You could also trek the rainforest on the search for endemic species, which includes huge families of monkeys.

Now it's time for your first taste of the coast in beautiful Candidasa. A relatively lesser known beach spot, which makes it all the more special.

A day to relax by the coast. Perhaps explore the historic Taman Ujung Water Palace, a short drive from Candidasa, featuring stunning gardens, reflection pools, and panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and coastline.

Candidasa offers snorkelling and diving opportunities with vibrant coral reefs and marine life at nearby spots like Blue Lagoon and Gili Tepekong.

Visit the beautiful Lotus Lagoon in the heart of Candidasa, where blooming lotus flowers cover the water, providing a peaceful atmosphere for relaxation and photography.

Last but not least on your Bali island adventure you head to trendy Seminyak, a coastal spot that's home to the best bars and restaurants in Indonesia.

Enjoy world-class dining and trendy beach clubs like Potato Head and Ku De Ta, offering stunning sunset views and vibrant nightlife.

Explore Seminyak Beach, a long stretch of golden sand perfect for surfing, sunbathing, or enjoying beachside cocktails at one of the many stylish lounges.

Seminyak is also known for its luxury shopping, featuring boutique stores, art galleries, and markets where you can find unique fashion, homeware, and handmade crafts.

For a more cultural experience, visit Petitenget Temple, a centuries-old Balinese temple near the beach, surrounded by lush gardens and offering insight into local traditions.

Your last day on beautiful Bali. Be sure to check your Blank Canvas app, as ever, for bar and restaurant recommendations.

Today you head back to the airport in good time for your flight home.
