Have Some Memorable Experiences with Your Bali Holidays

by Amanda Sutcliffe Travel Deals

Bali, one of the most popular island destinations in Indonesia, is known as the 'Land of the Gods'. You'll certainly understand this description of the island better when you come across all the enchanting natural surroundings and the beautiful ancient temples of Bali that create a divine atmosphere all around. Even after so many centuries of history, this Indonesian island has managed to retain its rich cultural heritage. While holidaying on the island, you'll get a glimpse of the centuries-old traditions of its locals and some mesmerising attractions of nature that would leave you spellbound.

The best time to enjoy your Bali holidays is during the period between April and October when the island experiences its dry season. The waves on the western side of the peninsula are the best during this time of the year, which also makes it the best season for surfing enthusiasts. If you don't like being surrounded by crowds of tourists, avoid visiting during the peak tourist season from July to August. The months of April, May, June, and September would be ideal for those who want lesser crowds. For those who wish to enjoy cheaper accommodations, the period between October and March would be an ideal time to grab some excellent deals offered by the island's hotels and resorts. This is the time when not many tourists visit owing to heavy rainfall.

One of the most popular attractions in Bali is Pura Tanah Lot, which is among the island's most iconic temples. It is located at a distance of about 20 kilometres from Kuta on a rocky islet. The Balinese people consider this one of the most sacred of all the sea temples in this part of Indonesia. The holiest and largest Hindu temple on the island is Pura Besakih. Your visit to the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary would give you the opportunity to witness the grey long-tailed macaques and three ancient temples. While exploring Ubud, don't miss the famous rice terraces along the road of Tegallalang.

Among the best beaches you'd like to visit while holidaying in Bali is Kuta Beach. Despite all the hawkers and crowds of tourists on this beach, it is a good place to learn surfing. You can also rent a sun-lounger, surf-board, or umbrella from one of the beachside vendors. If you wish to be on a beach that has very few visitors and a serene atmosphere, head to the island of Nusa Lembongan. While exploring the northern parts of the island, you'll be delighted to visit Sekumpul Waterfall in the Singaraja region.

You can also enjoy some thrilling outdoor activities while holidaying on the island of Bali. One of the most exciting experiences would be a hike to the summit of Mount Batur. It begins in the pre-dawn darkness, but as soon as you reach the summit of the mountain, you can enjoy some delightful views of sunrise from the top. If you're a surfing enthusiast, the best spot for this activity would be the southern parts of the Bukit Peninsula. Scuba diving, snorkelling, and kitesurfing are a few other activities you can try while in Bali.
