Adorned by exotic gardens, fountains, and ornamental ponds filled with koi fish, this tranquil site is an ideal place to stroll and admire traditional Balinese architecture. The name Tirta Gangga refers to the waters of the Ganges River in India. This park was built by the King of Karangasem in 1946, and its beauty has been preserved to this day.

Afterwards, continue your journey through the peaceful countryside, passing rice fields and traditional Balinese villages on your way to Taman Ujung Water Palace. Once the royal retreat of the King of Karangasem, this elegant palace is surrounded by large ponds, gardens, and green pathways.

To end the day, you'll stop at Virgin Beach, one of East Bali's most beautiful stretches of coastline. With its soft white sand and clear turquoise water, it's the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring. If you feel like it, take a refreshing swim or simply unwind by the sea.

Along the way, you'll stop at Goa Lawah Temple, one of Bali's important sacred sites. Built around a natural cave inhabited by thousands of bats, the temple has long been a place of worship and purification for the Balinese people.

A short drive away, you'll visit one of the last traditional sea salt producers in Bali. Here, local artisans continue to harvest salt by hand using techniques that have been passed down through generations. Sea water is carefully collected and dried under the tropical sun to produce natural white salt crystals, prized for their pure flavor and quality. Your guide will explain the traditional process and the challenges of preserving this centuries-old craft, as only a handful of families continue this unique tradition today.

After that, continue your journey to your hotel in Balangan. Perched on a cliff overlooking the Indian Ocean, it offers a peaceful setting to relax and enjoy the coastal scenery. The resort features two outdoor swimming pools, a restaurant with ocean views, and direct access to a beautiful white sand beach.

Towards the end of the afternoon, our driver will take you to Uluwatu Temple. Stand tall on a dramatic cliff over 70 metres, the temple offers nice coastal views, especially as the sun begins to set. Dating back to the 11th century, Uluwatu is one of Bali's six most sacred temples and is home to a lively population of long-tailed monkeys. 

As the sun begins to set, you'll have the opportunity to watch the famous Kecak Fire Dance performed in the open-air amphitheatre beside the temple. One of Bali's most iconic cultural performances, the dance is accompanied by a choir of dozens of men who create a rhythmic "cak-cak-cak" chant instead of using musical instruments. 

Day 7: Southern Bali beach, Bali airport

This morning, after checking out from the hotel, you'll spend your last few hours discovering the beautiful beaches of southern Bali. Your first stop is Balangan Beach, known for its long stretch of white sand, dramatic limestone cliffs, and world-class surfing waves. 

Next, continue to Padang Padang Beach, a small hidden beach tucked between towering cliffs. Its crystal-clear water and tropical setting make it one of Bali's most picturesque beaches. Before heading to the airport, take one last opportunity to soak in the island's natural beauty and create lasting memories of your Bali adventure.
