A friend and I want to move to Bali for the summer and experience the culture while doing some remote work! I’d love any local knowledge about the area, where’s good for expats, pros/cons, or anything anyone has to offer! Thank you in advance
Hi all! trying to figure out the best/most convenient area to stay for one leg of my trip.
I will be coming from Gili T and grabbing a speed boat with hopefully a transfer back to wherever I decide. I’m currently between Canggu and seminyak after reading up on a few possible places to stay but other suggestions are also welcome!
Some info about me: 26F from NYC, traveling solo, likes to keep busy/hates down time, food and activities are must haves. Let’s pretend I don’t have a budget? (Lol I do but can splurge if I get to do more/save time since I won’t be there for a very long time)
Things I’m planning on doing:
- day trips to dive in the nusa penida (crystal bay, manta point); pick up from Bali so don’t have to stay on nusa penida. Definitely 1 day trip, may do 2 days if really into it
- explore nusa penida/lembongan/ceningan. I was initially gonna try to book a day trip(s) to explore since I thought i would waste too much time traveling back and forth (I need to be back in Bali as I have a flight that goes from DPS to LBJ for komodo island stuff). I heard the day trips are super touristy and packed, not the most recommended. I still want to see those “must see” parts of the islands but just need some guidance on how to go about it. Thoughts?
- see tanah lot?
- maybe spend a day going around doing beach stuff, maybe a market, have a nice little sunset dinner at those beach bars or restaurants? Maybe get a massage?? The boat back would get to this area around noon so I could spend the first day there just doing random stuff
Like I said, I was thinking of staying at Canggu or seminyak. Will likely do a hostel. I don’t want to rent a scooter (to be honest I’ll probably get hurt lol) so I’ll just do grab or other apps. I’m really looking for a good “home base” to come back to that’s not so far from everything. Most importantly.... which area has the best food/restaurants/street food?? I’m a foodie, I would prefer more local/authentic food since I’m there. But I wouldn’t hate going to some fancy famous restaurant once in awhile either.
Sorry for the long post! Any help would be great
So me and my girlfriend are visiting Bali on an 11 day trip in January and plan on starting in either Seminyak or Canggu.
I read on here that Seminyak is a no go but my friends who have visited say otherwise simply because it Seminyak is closer and more easily accessible to all the good bars and restaurants.
I want to avoid hiring a scooter and I here Canggu is too spread out that you need your own transport. What is it about Seminyak that makes it a turn off to most users in here?
Hi guys. Been quoted £218 in the UK for a rabies vaccination (3 doses over a month period)
Can you get the vaccination in Bali? (Around Seminyak)? If so where and how much would it be?
Googling brings up some clinics but there are no prices just generic best practice stuff if bitten etc
Thanks
