<strong>Bali</strong><br />

Known as the ‘Land of the Gods’, <strong>Bali</strong> is undeniably beautiful. For a small tropical<br />

island, <strong>Bali</strong> has an amazing ability to provide something for everyone. Initially<br />

discovered by surfers for its amazing beaches, <strong>Bali</strong> is now well recognized for<br />

not only its great surf and stunning beaches, but also its diving and array of other<br />

watersports, resorts, restaurants and nightlife. Whether you enjoy crowds or a<br />

secluded beach, <strong>Bali</strong> has the lot!<br />

Each region is so unique which makes it impossible to describe <strong>Bali</strong> simply. This is<br />

largely due to the many different villages, each with their own individual charm and<br />

allure that collectively make up <strong>Bali</strong>.<br />

Festivals and Events <strong>2017</strong><br />

28 Mar 17 Nyepi Day<br />

Known as the day of silence, Nyepi marks the celebration<br />

of the <strong>Bali</strong>nese New Year in the Hindu Lunar calendar.<br />

On this day the island literally shuts down. Hotels do not<br />

accept guests arrival, facilities outside of the resort are<br />

limited, vehicles are not allowed on the streets and use of<br />

electricity is restricted.<br />

Moving away from the main beaches, <strong>Bali</strong>’s interior is a maze of fertile grassy plains,<br />

terraced rice paddies, striking lakes and vast volcanic mountains. The east coast is<br />

an area of great historical, cultural and spiritual significance with some of the most<br />

breathtaking natural scenery and idyllic village life on the island. This incredible<br />

landscape is only outdone by the warmth and friendliness of <strong>Bali</strong>nese people.<br />

However you look at it, <strong>Bali</strong> is great value! Accommodation is well priced and<br />

plentiful, the shopping abundant, varied and cheap, and the food is delicious; think<br />

lemongrass, coriander, tamarind and ginger. You will never cease to be amazed at<br />

how the real beauty of <strong>Bali</strong> will reveal itself.<br />
