EDITOR'S NOTE

Spirits of Nature… and More!

The rainy season is the perfect time to give your skin and surfboard a well-deserved break from the burning sun and refresh your exploring skills in Bali.

Whether you are an animal lover or not, the traditional bird market in Denpasar, the Pasar Burung, offers a nice alternative to the usual things to do in Bali. Expect to see an amazing collection of colorful, exotic and noisy birds and animals here combined with a nice range of accessories varying from ocean jewelries to herbal cures (see page 20).

A must-see event is the dramatic Kecak (Monkey) dance which, surprisingly enough, is not accompanied by the all-time Balinese favorite instrument the gamelan, but by a choir of hundreds of men repeatedly making “chak-a-chak” sounds (see page 26–29). If you are able to attend the mysterious sunset performance at the Uluwatu temple, make sure to spend some quality-time at the Bali Cliff in advance. This unspoiled hideaway-beach in Bukit Area will make definitely make you feel reloaded and forget about Balinese engine fumes (see page 34).

For this issue’s Up & Close, we were very fortunate to meet Wayan Sukadana. The internationally wellknown and extremely busy Kung Fu Grand Master, author and yogi gave us a philosophical and spiritual insight into the interesting world of kung fu (see page 24–25).

Last but not least, we have great news for anyone seeking a top-notch yet affordable get-away.

Petitenget is proud to announce the new place to be! The super-stylish venue Barcode recently opened its doors (see page 36). You will find that time truly flies here while sipping on lovely cocktails, tasting the finger-licking tapas, relaxing in the lounge area and listening to great live music (Thursdays).

Our other regular columns are still here; therefore, enjoy reading! And enjoy Bali, too!

BALI FLASH

Nyepi Day is Coming!

Chinese New Year has just passed and now it’s time for the Balinese Hindu to take turn in welcoming the Saka (lunar) New Year that will fall this coming March 16th.

The unique thing about the Balinese Saka New Year, which is known as Nyepi, is that the whole island will turn into a total silent for 24 straight hours. Practices that involve pleasure, traffic, fire (lights) and work are prohibited. This means, you can’t go out from your hotel during that day. The only public facility allowed to operate is hospitals — even the airport is closed.

However, the night just before the silent day, a real party will take place on the streets in Bali. On this Nyepi eve, all the Balinese Hindus across the island are having extravagant parades and marching along the streets while carrying ogoh-ogoh — a gigantic puppet made from colorful papers, mirrors, suede, tinsel, bamboo and other materials.

New Regulations for Indonesia’s Visa on Arrival Starting January 26 this year, foreign tourists from countries eligible for "visa on arrival" will now be given a 30-day visa (USD 25) that can be renewed for an additional 30 days. The new rule is expected to extend tourists’ stays in Indonesia, giving them a chance to visit more places in the country. A number of tourism critics, however, are unhappy with the regulation as tourists are not automatically given a 60-day visa on arrival, removing the need for any renewal process and the still unclear cost of extending the original visa.

Traffic Accident Victims don’t Need to Queue The Bali traffic police together with state-owned public transportation insurer Jasa Raharja and a number of Bali’s hospitals (Sanglah General Hospital, Tabanan regional hospital, Bhayangkara police hospital, Puri Raharja private hospital and the Army hospital) have 12 12

Balinese Chef Surely Knows How to Cook A Balinese chef named I Wayan Wicaya arrived back in Bali early this month with a big smile on his face and a huge trophy in his hands. Yep, the happy chef left for Chile and came home taking with him the title as the winner of the Global Chefs Challenge 2010.

Representing Indonesia and Asia in the challenge, Wicaya had to go through a series of competitions on the local, national and regional levels in two years time.

The hard work seemed to pay off, as Wicaya is now the best chef in the world. signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to accelerate emergency treatment to victims of traffic accidents on the island. The move is aimed at eliminating dangerous delays now encountered seeking payment guarantees so medical treatment can commence. Yet, the MoU doesn’t mean that you can carry on acting foolishly on the road.

Tedung

Today in Bali, where many commercial buildings are constructed following traditional architectural principals, many items such as the traditional umbrellas (known as tedung) are used to add a character to represent a style considered truly Balinese. However, not many know that the different colors of the umbrellas actually represent the different manifestations of the gods.

Therefore these umbrellas are typically used for auspicious occasions to decorate the temple compounds.

The pure shades of yellow and white, which are largely found within areas of temples, are to symbolize the gods Vishnu and Shiva. The check-patterned (black and white) is dedicated to penungkaran or the guardian of an area/ neighborhood. New umbrellas will regularly be purchased for community temples using communal funds. Prior to being erected the umbrella must be sprinkled with holy water as an act of purification.

The village areas of Klungkung and Mengwi are known throughout Bali for the production of these ceremonial umbrellas.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT

Babies Equal Ceremonies In Bali, just like in other parts of the world, having a baby is probably one of most exciting moments in

life — of course, if the baby is expected. However, for Balinese people the meaning of having a baby extends from the continuation of family cycle to the persistence of their religious, cultural and other communal

practices. Therefore, the Balinese people treat their newly born babies very carefully in accordance with their religious and cultural beliefs.

The first big ceremony for a newborn baby will be held after it reaches the age of three months, a period

when the baby is allowed to touch the ground. Yep, a baby younger than three months old is still considered impure; thus the baby is not allowed to touch the soil of the Earth, which is believed as a holy and pure

material by the Balinese. If this rule is broken, then the baby will (seriously) take quite some time until it’s

finally able to walk and/or speak. Of course, other negative impacts such as weak physical conditions that

can make the baby prone to a number of illnesses will follow. Aside from the touching the ground, the baby is also not allowed to enter holy areas such as temples — this would include the mother, too.

Now, if you are currently in Bali and you have your newborn baby with you, then it is advised that you

prevent the baby from touching the ground — if you wish your baby to grow healthily. Then again, this is Bali, a land rich of mythical and superstitious beliefs; so, it’s really up to you to believe it or not.

PASAR BURUNG

W

hat is a city without the traffic; certainly, as the island’s capital, Denpasar doesn’t lack this element. However, traffic is not the only thing decorating the city, as museums, parks, monuments and colorful traditional markets are also making the city worth a visit. Anyway, of all the attractions found in Denpasar, Pasar Burung is probably the kind that can add a different experience during your holiday in Bali.

As the name suggests, Pasar Burung (bird market) in Denpasar is a noisy yet colorful market selling a wide range of birds and other small animals such as dogs, cats, monkeys, squirrels, fishes and even bats and geckos.

20

THE MAG In Focus : Pasar Burung

As the name suggests, Pasar Burung (bird market) in Denpasar is a noisy yet colorful market selling a wide range of birds Although not really aimed as a tourist destination, the bird market is starting to attract attention of the visitors. While observing the animals for sale in the market can make a good sightseeing, a lot of tourists find the market as an equally good place to buy ocean jewelries and herbal cures.

Pasar Burung is located off Veteran Street in Denpasar, some 300 meters from the landmark “Catur Muka” (statue with four faces).

Spice your evening. Lemongrass is one of the best Thai food restaurants in the heart of Seminyak, since 7 years. Regularly primed as top by Bali Medias. Focus on fresh ingredients, herbs, and seafood, homemade sauces and so far the grilled jumbo shrimp without any doubt.

Bali Eco Adventure

In the midst of rapid development (as in building constructions) currently undertaking in Bali, two men stood up and came up with a responsible travel concept that allows visitors to closely observe the pristine nature of Bali. Peter Studer and Ketut Sunarta with their Bali Eco Adventure offer the travelers to this island an adventure that assures fun, education and fitness in the pure nature of Bayad village (some 12km north of Ubud).

Bali Eco Adventure intents to educate the travelers, provide funds for conservation that will directly benefit the economic development of the local communities and foster respect for different cultures. This adventure is also held as important by those who participate in it in order for future generations to still be able to experience the vital aspects of natural, green environments that are relatively untouched by egoistic human interventions.

Bali Eco Adventure’s highly-trained staff will assure you an exciting way of exploring the unspoiled nature of Bayad village. The thousands of trees are naturally arranged into amazing medical herb gardens. You’ll also be

THE MAG Explore Bali: Bali Eco Adventure

amazed on how impeccably knowledgeable your guides are, as they tell you the name of each tree, flower and fruit and explain the efficacies of each of these flora species. The natural pathways adventuring the densely forested area will also provide you with a fun way to exercise. Along the way, there are good chances for you to encounter with the locals while they are tending the ricefields and other traditional practices.

Certainly recommended for school children (and, of course, the adults too), a visit to Bali Eco Adventure will enrich our knowledge through its primary attractions that circle on flora, fauna and cultural heritage. Through this educating way, visitors are expected to gain insights about the impact of human beings on nature and also achieve greater appreciation of our own natural habitats.

To learn more about Bali Eco Adventure you can visit Explore Bali booths in Jl. Laksmana/ Oberoi (right across Mykonos restaurant and in front of Villa Ananda - Seminyak) and Jl. Raya Seminyak (right in front of Ryoshi restaurant - Seminyak).

UP CLOSE

The Kung Fu Master

Wayan Sukadana 24 24

THE MAG Up Close: Wayan Sukadana

Not many know that aside from being the home of countless fine artists, Bali is also the home of a kung fu master named Wayan Sukadana. The true passion towards kung fu has led Wayan to travel around the globe in search of a deeper understanding about the martial arts. The journey made him experience the sweet and bitter tastes of life, from hard times to glamorous moments when he co-starred in quite a number of movies with Jackie Chan and Jet Lee. He is also the author of a book called “Rahasia Kehidupan” (Secret of Life), in which he puts his knowledge about how to achieve a harmonious, peaceful life.

We met up with Wayan in Denpasar on the sideline of his hectic day preparing his next book. Here’s what we talked about that day.

Can you tell us how you became involved in martial arts and why you chose kung fu?

I’ve been having a sincere infatuation for martial arts ever since I was five, exactly when I started learning kung fu in Manado (North Sulawesi) from a Chinese man who lived there. I chose kung fu because of its teachings, which are not solely about the knowledge of gaining strength to defense yourself. Anyway, when I was around seven or eight years old, I became so intensely caught up with kung fu that I even traveled to China to gain deeper knowledge.

What was it about kung fu that motivated you so much?

Aside from the martial arts, the whole philosophy about kung fu has always astounded me. Kung fu teaches us how to live life in harmony and to maintain the balance of everything in the universe. It gives us strength not to fight, but to care for each other. Commencing kung fu I learned that everything is precious, starting from dust to the great universe. This is why I meditate a lot and do yoga. It enables me to come to my senses and know the value of everything in life.

Yes, kung fu’s viewpoints that see strength as a weakness if not based on love, and to love and serve all have motivated me very much.

What are the key characteristics about kung fu, how does it differ from other martial arts?

If we see martial arts as a running river, then kung fu is the spring that makes it possible for the river to run. Kung fu is the source of the many martial arts we know today.

What are some of your key achievements in kung fu in both competition and other areas?

If you mean medals, I have won hundreds of them. I won 262 medals at the regional level, 57 at the national level and two at the world level. Those medals really don’t mean a thing for me; I’ve gotten rid of them all, he (pointing at someone) is my witness. However, the greatest achievement for me is the way I’ve changed so much. I can now appreciate and love life in a way that brings nothing but peace in my mind.

Wayan Sukadana is currently a yogi at Yoga Barn in Ubud. If you want to attend his class or just meet him at Yoga Barn, then you should come on Wednesdays at 10.30am (tai chi class) and Saturdays at 2 pm (kung fu yoga).

Sanghyang trance ceremony. Kecak includes a drama, in which the circle of light around the torch becomes a stage and the men act as the border that will create a living theatre with all effects that you can expect to get from a modern theatre.

The show will start once the human instruments start to chant and the storyteller takes his place, narrating the episodes from the book of Ramayana.

Kecak dance depicts the battle of a prince named Rama, a warrior, rightful heir to the throne of Ayodya kingdom and whose beautiful wife, Dewi Sinta was kidnapped by the king of evil Rahwana. With the help from the white monkey army of Hanuman, Rama finally rescues Sinta and defeats the evil Rahwana.

The dance is divided into five acts and is now probably the most famous and most photographed dance in Bali. Since the men circling the fire also act as the army of white monkeys, this dance is also known as the Monkey Dance.

Although Kecak performances are widely offered across the island, it is, of course, better to watch the one during temple festivals.

28

THE MAG Feature Story: Chants of the Monkeys

Although Kecak performances are widely offered across the island, it is, of course, better to watch the one during temple festivals. This is when the dark stretch of the banyan tree above the temple gate shines an intense shadow on the courtyard and the carvings that flicker like ghosts in the rough light. A winding stream of bodies twists itself, circle within circle, around a large, branching fire. Images of men appear in a pattern of silhouettes while the other is of sculptural faces of brown skin caught in a net of torchlight. A priest enters with offerings, a blessing of holy water. When demon king Rahwana leaps to the centre, the chorus simulates his flight with a long hissing sound.

When Hanuman enters the mystic circle, the men become an army of chattering monkeys.

This is the show that will send tingles down your spine.

It’s easy to attend the commercial shows of Kecak. Places such as Tanah Lot (go to tanahlot. net for schedule), Uluwatu and Sahadewa Theatre in Batubulan offer daily shows that start during sunset time. On the other hand, to witness the real performance of Kecak in temple festivals during the temple’s anniversary (normally within the central areas of Bali), you need to consult with the locals on-the-know.

If ever you are fortunate enough to attend this sacred event, please wear your sarong and sash.

GETAWAY

Bali Cliff The Bukit area (located before Uluwatu) is known as the host of some of the most enchanting beaches in Bali. As the examples are the beaches of Dreamland and Padang Padang; these two beaches are known as the haven for surfers and sunbathers alike. Yet, fame and the current rapid development undertaking in the area have somewhat taken out the ‘real’ charms of Padang Padang and, especially, Dreamland.

Now, if you are looking for a place a bit quieter that still shares typical characteristics, then you just need to make a little turn on the road and head to Bali Cliff.

Nestled on the foot of a secluded plateau by a cliff that overlooks the blue waters of the Indian Ocean, the beach of Bali Cliff offers calmness that is fit for those seeking a laid back tranquility. A little number of hawkers will, of course, ‘greet’ you as you get there; but don’t worry, as these hawkers are friendly and can correspond well to a “no, thank you”.

Anyway, away from the hawkers, going down through quite a number of steps, you will reach the white-sandy beach of Bali Cliff. Chances are, you will be the only tourist on the spot.

34

THE MAG

Although the friendly fishermen around would normally ignore you, you can always create a conversation with them—given that you start it first. The water is clean and clear and suitable for swimming; however, it is advised that you wear your water shoes due to the rocky condition of the beach.

Bali Cliff is located some 15 minutes away from Dreamland. If you’re coming from Jimbaran direction, you take the left turn on the intersection (right to Balangan Beach, straight ahead to Dreamland, Padang Padang and Uluwatu) right after you pass GWK. From there, you just need to follow the direction of “Bali Cliff” as put on the many signboards along the way. Though they are located in the exact same location, it is important for you not to mistake the beach of Bali Cliff and Bali Cliff Resort.

Once you see Bali Cliff Resort, as the landmark, you go on the small road right next to it to get to public parking area of the beach.

BARCODE

THE MAG Food Review: Barcode

etitenget is officially ready to go on to the next level in the entertainment sector; the current emergence of tasteful venues in the area is the sign. To add the number, a new venue labeled as Barcode—opened last year in mid December— is offering a different tune to amuse the growing number of crowd in the area. Yep, Petitenget has now been bar-corded and is ready for some real action.

Barcode is a stylish, two-storey venue combining the conveniences of a restaurant, bar (both on first floor) and lounge (on second floor). The venue’s open plan with its high ceiling (thatching roof) and tall pillars gives a spacious tone to the atmosphere. This also makes it possible for customers in the lounging, dining and bar areas to uninterruptedly enjoy Barcode’s live music performance centered on the stage on second floor.

Mexican Salsa Dipper

The bar, however, seems to be the most favorable spot in the venue, where customers can drink and enjoy a conversation with friends in the company of the house’s finger-licking tapas. Of course we couldn’t afford to miss the opportunity to sample the Mexican Salsa Dipper (spicy salsa served on a bed of crispy tortilla) while having our drinks. Time really did fly, as it took only a while before we ordered another plate of the tapas. Don’t worry; the many tapas selections in Barcode won’t burn a hole on your wallet since it only costs you IDR 20,000 each and it’s good for sharing!

Barcode’s dining area is certainly lovely to try out the house’s special, where you are dished up with splendid creations such as pan-fried fillet fish with lime avocado salsa served with French

Go Green In Bali Bali is a beautiful island to visit and like many other tourist destinations, being such a popular spot brings many problems. One concerning problem that we at The Mag have come to notice is the ever growing environmental problems that effect this paradise island. We at The Mag hope that all travelers will take (little) time to read these points and take them to action, in order to lessen the damage. So please, keep Bali Beautiful.

1. Please don’t litter

It’s a habit we should all try to keep, and that is just “don’t litter”. If no trashcan is in sight, just keep it in your bag or pocket until you come across one, and then dispose of it correctly.

2. See some rubbish, pick it up

Add that little extra part in keeping Bali clean by picking scraps of trash ignorant people have discarded carelessly and then find the appropriate place to dispose of it.

3. Reuse or refuse plastic bags

Sometimes shops will still put your goods into plastic bags. It’s ok to refuse the plastic bags, if you’re carrying your own. You may get a strange look from the cashier, if so; just explain your trying to "Keep Bali Beautiful!”

4. Walk more!

To keep the air of Bali cleaner, it’s always better to walk. Other than being a healthy alternative, you may accidentally stumble onto a small store or unseen bar which you may have missed.

5. Eco-travelling

What better way to enjoy the beautiful scenery of nature in Bali than to take an eco-tourism tour.

Many companies provide trips into the untouched wilderness of Bali, or the unspoiled coral reefs.

52

What's Happening

6. Lights out

Leaving your AC on is a huge waste of valuable electrical energy. It’s better to turn off your AC and lights before heading out.

7. It’s better to go out for dinner

It is sometimes tempting to take-away food to enjoy in the comfort of the place you are staying, but the packaging of the food adds up to the pile of trash that is thrown away.

8. Support local industries

Sending imported goods uses up much of the worlds fossil fuel resources, compared to using products already available in Bali. By supporting local industries we can also improve the economy for the community in Bali.

9. Water preservation

The amount of clean water in Bali is slowly becoming scarcer due to over use. Small things we can do to help over come the water crisis are by taking shorter showers and turning of the taps when we brush our teeth.

WHAT TO EAT & WHERE TO GO FOR LOCAL FOOD CRAVERS You need to explore the uniqueness and typical food of Bali, and Indonesia in general, to make your Bali Holiday complete. International restaurants throughout the island should provide you the opportunity to sample one of the local delicacies. Of course, if you feel like having a more authentic experience, you can always go to traditional markets or the street carts/stalls offering various items of local food.

Either way, here are ten places where you can go to have a bite of the local food’s exotic tastes.

1 Sate Bali

Sate Bali is a restaurant in Petitenget with an authentic Balinese touch; having said that, Sate Bali is the place to go if you feel like experiencing Balinese cuisines with all its spiciness and colorful flavors. Aside from that, if you would like to learn how to cook Balinese food, the chef will be more than happy to demonstrate his skills in the restaurant’s kitchen.

2

If you are adventurous in a culinary way, then you should head to Bumbu Bali restaurant in Ubud and try out the restaurant’s Gadagan Mebasa — frog legs in Balinese spices and coconut milk. Aside from the frog legs, a wide selection of other authentic Balinese cuisines is also offered.

3 Moth Cracker in Denpasar 4 This typical dish made out of moth is normally found within the Javanese communities especially in Denpasar areas. If some of you find it disturbing to have your neon lights surrounded by these flying moths, the Javanese would normally get some buckets to contain the insect. Once the buckets are full, the insect will be cleaned up, put in dough and deep fried.

The crackers are sold in a number of warungs in Denpasar.

Frog Leg at Bumbu Bali

Shark Fried Rice in Jimbaran

A number of eateries in Jimbaran offer the mix of shark with local favorite cuisine nasi goreng (fried rice). You can have a bite of this shark delicacy in a small warung in Jimbaran near the McDonald’s on the way to Bukit (read the sign saying “shark” on your left side if you’re coming from the by pass road). Several restaurants in Jimbaran also provide shark, but depending on availability.

5 Dirty Duck at Bebek Bengil

Bebek Bengil (literally means dirty duck) is a diner near the monkey forest, Ubud. Story has it that the diner was named after the very first ‘customers’ that arrived in the restaurant: dirty ducks from the surrounding ricefields. Well, the duck may be the first to step foot in the diner in 1990; now, the ducks will arrive in the restaurant, served on the restaurant’s plate to be exact, after being ordered. Yep, Bebek Bengil’s crispy duck is exactly what this restaurant famous for.

Crispy Pork Skin Ibu Oka

6

Turtle Satay

We can’t really tell you where to get this dish, for probably there are just too many of them scattered across the island. However, if you see an old lady sitting by the road side surrounded by smoke while flattering the satay, there's a good chance that she sells turtle satay.

Claw at 8 Chicken Bemo Corner

Ibu Oka is another most favorable eating place within Ubud area known for its juicy suckling pig. However, another must-try dish at Ibu Oka is the crispy pork skin. The skin has now become the favorite of many visiting Ibu Oka. So, if you happen to be in the center of Ubud, then you really should pay this eatery a visit.

This particular dish makes the Bemo Corner in Kuta a happening spot during night times at around nine onwards. It is a kind of clear-water soup with many chicken claws all put in a bowl and served hot. Due to limitation of space, there is only a little number of seats provided; those who don’t get a seat could always sit on the carpet by the roadside.

Cobra at Istana 9 King Raja Kobra

10

You REALLY need to be courageous if you want to try the dish made out of this creeping creature: King Cobra. If you could just spend a little time to pay a visit to this restaurant called Istana Raja Kobra (Palace of King Cobra) near the Simpang Siur roundabout, then you can have a bite of this cuisine. Cobra is not the only snake served on plate in this restaurant, as Python, Green Mamba and others are also available.

Of the many street foods offered in Bali, sate (satay) would be the most popular one. Sold on a street-sided cart, this food can be smelled even from a block away. Another local food widely available and popular on the street sides is bakso (meatball soup). A vendor with a lot of customers should be a good sign, indicating that the food served tastes good.

2. It is better for you to go to the shop that has everything: t-shirts, shorts, wood handicrafts, etc. By doing a onestop shopping, which means you will buy quite a lot, it is easier for you to get a bigger discount.

3. Try not to be not so apparent that you really want the thing you are looking at on a shop; the vendors are not stupid and can smell your desire, thus will take the advantage by putting the price high.

BEFORE ENTERING A TEMPLE, PLEASE REMIND YOURSELF: 1.To respect the place and its people: it is sacred, so do not make noise or damages and act normal.

2.That a woman who is having her period, is not allowed to enter the temple.

3. To not walk in front of a praying person.

4. Since there are ranges of shops offering pretty much the same things, you can always walk away from one shop to another if a deal cannot be reached. But walk slowly. Normally, if you offer a reasonable price on a bargain, in which the vendor can still make some profits and the price is good for you, the vendor would call you back to his/her shop as you walk away.

5. Tell the vendor that if he/she gives you a good price, than you will tell your other friends to shop from him/her.

6. Know the martket prices, or, pretend you do. By saying “I’ve seen this product before much cheaper” will probably lead to a cheaper price.

7. Have fun and stay friendly. Bargaining is part of the culture and it should be a fun activity.

4. That a priest is very important, so whenever he is praying, don’t sit higher then him and don’t bother him with your flash from your camera.

5. That you should also not take flashing pictures of other people praying.

6. To wear a sarong and a ribbon when you attend a ceremony (those are often provided to you when necessary).

Bali Barrels

By Alissa

The current winds on the west coast, the smelly dead fish and garbage at Kuta beach make the breaks not very interesting to surf this time of year.

Fortunately Bali has a whole east coast of surf spots with offshore waves every day. Serangan is one of these spots; it’s a fun, playful left and right peak located not far from Kuta. It offers the occasional barrel and has some fun hittable sections.

Serangan, also known as turtle island, used to be a turtle breeding ground with coral reefs frequented by divers. It is also the home of an important temple, Pura Sakenan. Unfortunately, an abandoned project in the area did some damages, causing much faster erosion of Sanur’s beaches, due to its influence on the tidal patterns. The reefs were pulverized into sand or buried beneath landfill and the turtles have been moved to another island.

Despite all this doom and gloom, there are still fun waves at the former island. To get to these waves you have to cross the unusual looking flat, unused land. It’s actually a nice drive on this sand track, through the puddles and onto the beach. When you drive onto Serangan, you have to pay twice and leave your ID or international driver’s license at the second post, which will be returned to you at your departure. The money is used for the maintance and cleaning of the ‘island’.

The waves at Serangan used to be quite uncrowded, especially around this time a year.

Because of the soft (pulverized) reef and easy paddle out it has always been popular with

Japanese surfers and beginners. Unfortunately, I noticed a definite increase in popularity the last few months, also by more experienced surfers.

Serangan can handle a swell up to 6 feet, although I have heard of some big swells and big barrels being surfed there on the right swell direction. The wave is usually quite soft, but on a bigger swell you can get caught inside quite annoyingly and are forced to duck dive countless waves before being able to make it back into the line up. The wave is consistent as it receives swell from most directions, although it breaks best on south swells.

The main peak right-hander can get very busy.

You can check conditions at the other peaks next to the main one and head over there if it looks good as it is usually less crowded. On a mid to high tide, the take off is easy and the wave is perfect for beginners. On a lower tide the wave becomes more challenging and more likely to barrel. Serangan is quite exposed and can get very windy. Early birds will be rewarded!

Not only has the amount of surfers increased, the beach has also become more popular. This is not surprising, as the white sandy beach and crystal clear water are great for swimming and hanging out for the day. Several laid-back warungs on the beach provide the usual beverages, fried rice and fresh fish of the barbeque. The mellow vibe makes you feel like you are miles away from the tourist hustle and bustle. Serangan is definitely a place worth visiting, for non-surfers and surfers alike.

Bali Surfspots Medewi Medewi is a fun wave for all surfers. It can be a bit fat, but has its day. Come early to avoid onshore winds. This spot handles bigger swells also.

Balian Balian is a swell magnet and a quiet spot in North Bali. This break is getting more crowded as more accommodation is build daily. Its playful lefts and rights are great for beginners and advanced surfers alike.

This spot doesn't like bigger swells.

Canggu & Perenan Canggu always gets more swell than Kuta beach. It actually consists of a few different breaks; The right breaks better on a mid to high tide and is a great performance wave.

The sandbank is better on a lower tide and is in front of the restaurants, it's fun to watch the surfers hit the lip whilst enjoying the delicious food. Canggu is becoming a very popular tourist spot, the sunday barbeque gets more packed every week.

Kuta Reef Kuta Reef is an exposed reef break that is quite consistent. There are a few breaks here: Airports rights and left, Middles and Kuta reef. MayĂ?October (dry season) is the best time of the year for waves here. It gets crowded due to its close proximity to Kuta.

Belangan Belangan is known for its longs peeling walls.

It does get sectiony, so you have to race a bit.

Belangan handles big swells and can offer good barrels on the right direction. On the wrong swell direction, it tends to close out.

It's a beautiful beach, great to spend the day!

Dreamland Dreamland was famous because it was a 'dreamy' spot, with the building of 'New Kuta beach' the dream became a nightmare.

A beautiful green cliff made place for concrete jungle, the worst example of socalled progress. The wave is still there, a nice

peak and a fun beach break. There's a great shore break on a bigger swell, where many a tourist has lost their top or bottom (or almost drowned...)

Bingin Bingin is a consistent, mechanical barrel machine. It's a short wave with a very small take off spot so if hassling is not your thing, it will be quite hard to get waves here.

Impossibles Impossibles gets fun on a big swell. Its located between Bingin and Padang Padang, if you are sick of dealing with the crowds at either of those two places you can paddle to Impossibles and get some long walls.

Padang Padang Padang Padang only starts to work when a big swell is running. It offers an amazing barrel but breaks in front of trocks, so experts only! It is an easy paddle out through the channel and one of the world-class waves in Bali.

Uluwatu There are 4 different sections at famous Uluwatu: Temples is a hollow wave which works on the mid to high tide. The peak can offer a nice barrel and is right in line with the cave. Racetracks is the low tide section, it's superfast and gets seriously shallow. Outside Corner is an world class wave which won't even start breaking unless the swell is at least in the 8 foot range.

Nyang Nyang Nyang Nyang beach is a 'secret' spot, it's not very easily accessible which it's why it's usually uncrowded. This beach is like a secret paradise for every surfer.

Green Ball Green Ball is a left and a right, situated at the bottom of a steep cliff. No worries going down but after you have been surfing for a couple of hours the return trip is quiet challenging.

Nusa Dua To get to this reef you have to drive into the hotel area itself and then weave your way south. There's no channel which makes getting caught inside on a big swell quite annoying. There are a couple of other good waves in this area so it pays to do a bit of exploring.

Sri Lanka In the northern part of Nusa Dua lays Sri Lanka, a bowly right which breaks into a deep water channel. This break is better on a bigger swell but is shifty.

Sanur Reef Sanur Reef is a right and considered another world class wave. It's the local break of many expats and locals so gets very busy. The wave breaks better on a mid to high tide and is usually better in the early morning or in the rainy season (November-April).

Padang Galak Padang Galak is a reliable rivermouth beach break north of Sanur. The break is quite popular, but only works under certain conditions.

Keramas Another well known wave, which received a lot of media attention the last few years. It has a nice barrel after take-off which turns into a wally lip. This break is very popular with visiting and local pro's and if you don't want to deal with them in the water it is nice to watch them surf from the warung right in front of the break.

Padangbai Padangbai has the flat bottomed mixed reef and sandy bottom with some wally waves.

This break needs a bit of swell.

Kuta Beach The warm water and sandy bottom make Kuta beach one of the best places in the world to learn to surf. Also for advanced surfers this beach is very popular, you can often see the locals busting airs on the punchy lefts and rights.

Kuta/Tuban/Legian Kuta Kuta is dedicated to those seeking fun and sun in affordable ways. The area consists of busy laneways lined with bars and restaurants, basic accommodations and various stalls selling multitudes of items.

Although often considered the ‘absolute ugliest’ area of the island due to its mixbag tourism projects in combination with rampant commercialism, Kuta still manages to retain a slice of Balinese charm. The smell of incense wafts down the crowded gangs and offerings of brightly colored flower petals are laid out each morning to appease the gods.

Legian The current Legian is packed with venues that turn this used-to-be sleepy hollow area into a spot that knows no rest with almost non-stop activities and crowds. More and more amusement centers like nightclubs, restaurants and shops are now making Legian a vibrant area that never sleeps.

Tuban Being a part of Kuta, Tuban doesn’t really share the loud noises and crowds of Kuta’s main party scenes. Villas and fine restaurants in this area are not really seen from the main road as they mostly take place beachside.

Seminyak/ Petitenget/ Canggu Seminyak Owing to its high density of upscale shopping, combined with the clustering of many fine-dining establishments, Seminyak has rapidly become one of the most wellknown tourist areas in Bali. In addition to a few commercial strips with popular and lively restaurants, bars and good crafts, furniture, and antique shops, there are a few notable establishments that have earned numerous titles as the best venue or party spot in Bali in various magazines.

Land and accommodation prices are amongst the highest in Bali and plenty of luxury spas and hotels abound.

60

THE MAG

Petitenget & Canggu Petitenget is where the chic ambiance of Seminyak continues. Although recently there have not been as many happening scenes as in Seminyak, emergence of a number of new stylish venues in Petitenget should indicate that this area would serve as the extension of Baliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s southern fashionable playground. Canggu, on the other hand, is where the ricefields are still widely spread and clearly seen, even due to its close proximity with Seminyak and Petitenget. A number of luxurious villas can be found within Canggu area â&#x20AC;&#x201C; most of them are blessed with the tranquil view of the ricefields.

Sanur/ Jimbaran/ Nusa Dua Sanur

One of the most pleasant aspects of Sanur is its large expanse of beachfront.

A footpath that covers about five kilometers allows visitors to casually stroll and explore, stopping when they feel like it for a drink or snack at one of the many beach side restaurants.

A large reef shelters Sanurâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s white-sand beach, resulting in low-key surf that is ideal for beginner surfers and families with small children. However, swimming is only possible at high tide as low tide exposes the reef. Wellstocked bars and decently priced food and drinks have turned this area into a popular nighttime destination as well.

Jimbaran

Nusa Dua

Some of the most luxurious hotels in the world find their home in Nusa Dua. Yet, unknown to even some of its loyal visitors, Nusa Dua actually offers more than just ranks of five-star hotels and up-market restaurants and shops.

For instance, the thousands who stay in the luxurious hotels within the Nusa Dua complex and Tanjung Benoa are largely unaware of a beautiful white-sand beach located just five minutes away on the southern edge of the peninsula, named Geger beach. Immediately north of Nusa Dua enclave is the peninsula of Tanjung Benoa that includes less exclusive hotels and Benoa village. As a mixed culture area, visitors can see a mosque and Chinese and Hindu temples in close proximity.

Although Jimbaran now houses some of the finest luxury hotels in the world, its original color as a fishing village still remains. Unlike many other coastal areas in Bali that have wholly converted from fishing villages into tourist spots crowded with umbrellas, hawkers and surfboards, Jimbaran exploits its natural potential as a fishing village with the establishment of row upon row of seafood restaurants serving that dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s catch of fresh fish and crustaceans. Jimbaran is now known to be a haven of the finest seafood (both raw and processed) in Bali.

Nusa Lembongan Nusa Lembongan is one of Baliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three small offshore islands (the other two are Nusa Penida and Nusa Ceningan) with tourist infrastructure; thus making it a popular destination for visitors to Bali. Lembongan is a destination to experience the abundance of marine life, coral beds, drop off walls and exhilarating drift dive. Lembonganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s white-sand beaches and clear water are just perfect for visiting sun worshippers. Unlike most beaches in Bali, there are no hawkers in Nusa Lembongan, with the sole exception of the boat guys who wander along the beach in the morning and ask you if you would like to join the snorkeling or fishing trips.

Getting to or from Nusa Lembongan is easy due to the numerous options. From Sanur, visitors are provided with several fast boat services as well as the traditional jukung boats (wooden boats).

Alternatively, travelers can depart from Benoa Harbour, any of the Gili islands, or even charter their own helicopter.

The Gilis Lombok’s three sister islands of Gili Trawangan, Gili Meno and Gili Air are currently amongst the top alternative destinations for tourists visiting Bali. The three are tiny coral-fringed islands blessed with white sandy beaches and crystalclear water swarming with an array of coral fish. Known as budget stopovers in the old days, the Gilis with their rapidly increasing popularity now have diversified accommodations ranging from luxury villas to rustic yet chic bungalows for rent.

Oceanfront restaurants and bars are also scattered around. Water activities, of course, are some of the highlights on the must-do list during a stay in these islands.

Each Gili has its own character and charm; Trawangan is known as the party scene, Meno is very mellow (perfect for honeymooners) and Air’s ambiance falls somewhere between the two. The three islands, very fortunately, are pleasantly

free from air pollution due to the absence of motorized land vehicles. Transportation means vary from the traditional cidomo (horse-drawn carts), horses and bicycles.

However, it’s important for you to note that the Gilis are homes to Muslim locals.

Although bikinis are tolerable, it is advised for you to avoid any excessive skin displays – including public affection displays. You also need to tolerate the loud call for early Morning Prayer at around four or five in the morning. Restaurants and bars will run as normal during the fasting month of Ramadan.

The Gili islands are easily accessible direct from Bali with the current fast boat services available. Ferry services from Padangbai to Lombok run 24 hours a day. Morning flights from Bali’s Ngurah Rai Airport to Lombok’s Selaparang Airport are also available daily.
