With it’s souring cliff-top resorts and villas, and awe-inspiring temple, Uluwatu is definitely to be included on any Bali itinerary. The surf here is absolutely cranking and is totally worth a paddle out through the cave.

Enter this beautiful beach via a steep stairway through a cave with monkeys overhead. Get there early to avoid the crowds. The swimming is lush, and you can enjoy a cold beer or a virgin coconut while you relax. Or have a surf!

4 Balangan Beach
I love Balangan Beach. It is a bit of a mission to get here on a scooter, we got lost a few times, but it was so worth the trip. Cool wooden warungs overhang a gorgeous white sand beach with spectacular rocky cliffs at either end. The surf here is worth the trip.
