Bali & Lombok

Bali is unlike any other place, breathtakingly beautiful, enchanting temples, shimmering sandy beaches and the warm smiles offered by the locals. One of the most popular tourist destinations in the world, Bali for few years was voted as the world best island by influential travel magazines. Its luxury hotels are amongst the finest in the world and are famous for their Balinese hospitality.

As a truly international destination attracting visitors from all over the world, restautants are extremely cosmopolitan. Experience not only local delicacies like Nasi Goreng but also Chinese, Malaysian, Japanese, Italian/European Greek, Moroccan and even Mexican cuisine. We must not forget Bali's wonderful seafood - local lobster at such prices that you will want to keep coming back for more.

With sunshine shining throughout the year, Bali has a tropical monsoon climate, with pleasant day temperatures between 20 to 33 degrees Celsius or 68 to 93 degrees Fahrenheit.

Rainy season starts from October to March, when the West monsoon brings heavy showers and high humidity. June to September is considered the driest season, with low humidity and it can be fairly cold in the evenings, the best time for any outdoor activities.

Festivals
Bali culture is totally unique and permeates through every aspect of life. The influence of Hinduism the main religion is evident in the music, drama, art, costumes and festivals. Music and dance play a huge part in significant rituals and religious ceremonies. Known as " the Island of the Gods" hardly a day goes by without a ceremony or festival taking place, celebrating the cycle of birth, death and rebirth. Definitely worth seeing.

White Water Rafting
The spectacular Ayung gorge provides the setting for one of the most exhilarating of white water rafting adventures. The shallow winding river Ayung offers an adrenaline pumping ride with stops along the truly idyllic shoreline.

Another exhilarating product within the Sobek adventure portfolio is one that will simply take your breath away. Meeting the same strict safety and service standards delivered on Sobek’s Ayung River rafting experience, the Telaga Waja put simply, will challenge you and your guide every step of the way!

Temples
Many claim that there are actually more temples than homes in Bali. Strictly speaking, many temples are really shrines but the number of religious compounds in Bali is said to be over 10,000. Normally peaceful and uninhabited, Bali’s temples transform into scenes of great activity and are ornately decorated during festivals with traditional dance performances, cockfighting and gambling. You’ll find that each of Bali’s temples is facing towards the mountains, the sea or sunrise.

Cruises
The Nusa Lembongan Sailing Experience, a day-cruise on a 26-meter catamaran, offers various marine activites around the coral reef or relaxation in tropical serene setting at The Anchorage. Island Reef Cruise presents the Bali Hai II flagship and a full day of activities below and above the water. Moor alongside a purpose-built pontoon and watch magical coral life from the comfort of the semi-submersible coral viewer, snorkel for a closer look or go on a cultural tour of the island.

Be whisked away on Lembongan Island Beach Club Cruise on Bali Hai II to a private beach club where you can relax at the pool or partake in an array of water activities and island excursions. The Kids Club Pirate Program includes tons of fun and games. Day Light with Sail Sensation lets you sail Bali’s largest catamaran. Excursions, cultural tours, snorkelling and diving are options. Indulge in a fine buffet lunch and the yacht is yours to sail on the way back if you so please.

Surfing
Bali´s coastline provides an ideal place for surfing such as Bukit Peninsula and Kuta Beach. Reef breaks, lagoons and varying conditions create great waves for both veteran surfers and newbies. Experienced surfers can head to the outer reef breaks, while newbies can opt for a gentler ride in the lagoons. Bali is a perfect place to learn this exhilarating sport with boards for rent at the main surfing beaches and lessons available.
