Bali is renowned for its great surfing spots with easy-to-reach breaks, long clean lines and predictable sets. There are plenty of board-hiring options and if you takeyour own, there are scooters for hire with a surfboard attachments. Padang Padang in Uluwatu is an awesome little cove, popular with wave riders and sun loungers alike. Bali is always warm and humid. I would suggest planning your trip for the dry season (May to October), as the rainy season (November – April), although warm,can dampen the fun.
Scooters are the preferred mode of transport in Bali and can be hired cheaply from anywhere on the island, including the airport.
Is Bali worthwhile?
Yes it is, if you want to holiday as opposed to travel, Bali is great. Relaxed, warm and easygoing with a wide array of accommodation options that offer great value for your money.
