thanks in advance!
Kuta (3d 2n)
assume you are staying in the south of bali for a few nights. but what you want to do depends on your preferences eg action, scenery, culture, etc. more info is needed.
Kuta (3d 2n)
Affordable is the green Green kuta close to everything and friendly right near all the shops or the seaveiw cottages which is across the road to the beach
Hi,
3D2N is not a very long trip. Bali island is approximately like PJ to Malacca 150KM east west and PJ to Cameron Highland 110KM north south.
Day 1 %26amp; 3 most probably take up by flight and hotel check-in/out. Most likely activities are walking around tourist centres( Kuta/Legian/Semanyak or Ubud) and along the beach near to your hotel if your hotel is nearby. U can squeeze in more activities if u arrive early and depart late.
U have 1 full day left on day 2 which u can hire a driver (400000 Rp take care of car rental %26amp; fuel) to take u sightseeing around the island and finish off with sunset watching either at Tanah Lot or Uluwatu thereafter back to hotel after dinner.
Hope the above help
hi rockterrigal....i%26#39;m looking at water sports, bungee jumping, snorkelling if can. prolly there wont be sufficient time to do snorkelling. im interested in surfing (neva surf in my life). found out that the surfin lessons are at least for 3 days for beginners. can%26#39;t find any which provide only a day or half day lessons.
apart from that, i like watching sunset, scenery and photography. will be goin to uluwatu to watch sunset and jimbaran for seafood.
I%26#39;ve actually booked our accommodation at Hard Rock Hotel. it%26#39;s F%26amp;E package. So I thought of finding sum cool activities to do while i%26#39;m there for a short period of time. thanks for recommending mate!
cheers
thanks Case for the info given. It%26#39;s a F%26amp;E package. so we%26#39;re doing things on our own except for the 1st day, will be goin to jimbaran for seafood and uluwatu to watch the sun setting dwn. How far is seminyak and legian from kuta? I think ubud will be far from our place to travel. I%26#39;m staying at hrd rock hotel.
Jimbaran Ikan Bakar

hi
snorkeling is best on the south and east coast. good sites nearby are the bukit 1hour drive, padangbai 1 1/2 hour drive and candidasa about 2 hours drive.
for surfing i%26#39;m sure that they will do a lesson for a day, if that is what you want. here is info on learning to surf in kuta:
There are many surf schools along the beach from kuta to seminyah. When you get there you will see them if not ask someone and they will point you in the right direction.
The waves on the beach break on shallow, flat sandbanks. Between the banks are strong rips which can have good surf. Out pass the breaking waves the currents are very strong and will easily take you quite a distance along the beach. The waves are crowded with experienced foreign and local surfers, who at times come dangerously close to beginners if they get in their way. The safest places to learn are on the shallow sand banks riding the white wash and the reforming waves.
You can organize the lessons when you get there. This way you can check them out the surf schools directly so that you feel assured that they are okay.
Generally, the surf schools are well organized with good equipment and instruction.
Here are the web sites of a few of them.

Warning: a certain number of people both locals and tourists drown each season on Kuta鈥檚 long beach. If in trouble raise your hand. Don鈥檛 panic if you get caught in a rip or current. do not swim against it but swim at roughly a 45 degree angle with the rip towards the shore. Don鈥檛 panic and remain calm someone will help you.
as for other things to do nearby:
visit tanah lot (temple)
drive around bukit and look at scenery and surfing
bungee jumping at legian
have a great trip RT
hi rockterringal, when you mentioned snorkelling at Bukit, do you mean bukit peninsula? is it a good site for snorkelling and any idea of how much it cost and how do i get there?
