Most of all during peak seasons (July – August) popular beaches are overcrowded with many tourists around the world. All beaches are free for visitors apart from Padang Padang. You have to buy the ticket to explore this beach. I loved the atmosphere and unique beauty of the Padang Padang beach. I found Balinese offerings (Canang Sari) even placed on every sandy beach.

    Bali is an amazing place, but not necessarily considered a beach-lovers paradise. That’s what I heard. We stayed in Ubud for a week, and then we moved for another week to Candi Dasa. So I am glad I can explore some more of the Bali’s beauty through your blog post and pictures! Great beaches here!

    I’ve been dying to go to Bali and this was amazing to learn from. The beaches look so serene and peaceful. Did you take a surf class while there? The photos look amazing as well, so stunning! As a solo traveler how to do take the photos? Do you ask the locals or have a stand?
