Indonesia
Bali
Rice terraces, surf beaches and sunrise volcano treks.
Overview
Bali is really several trips in one: calm, green Ubud inland, surf and cafes in Canggu and Seminyak, and cliff-top temples in Uluwatu. Pick two bases rather than moving every night.
Highlights
- Ubud and the Tegalalang rice terraces
- Uluwatu temple at sunset
- Mount Batur sunrise trek
- Beach clubs in Canggu and Seminyak
Best time to go
The dry season, roughly April to October, is the most reliable for beaches and treks. The wet season brings afternoon downpours but fewer crowds.
