The Best Beaches in Canggu

The beaches of Bali can be too crowded at certain times. Because so many travellers head to this little island in Indonesia, the beaches can be too hot and loud for you to enjoy a tranquil and quiet day just relaxing and sipping ice-cold fruit drinks by the seashore. But in the sleepy, small town of Canggu just north of glitzy Seminyak, there is a wide expanse of beaches where you can simply lie back and breathe in the freshness of the air without being dogged by street-hawkers and fellow visitors. If you\’re staying in one of the luxury villas that Seminyak is famous for, such as Villa Avalon, then rest assured you have awfully close access to a few of the absolute best beaches in all of Bali. Let\’s take a look at a number of them.

1. Pererenan Beach

The way to Pererenan Beach from Seminyak has a monumental view of the green countryside flanking both road sides. Once you get there, you can simply let go of your fears and bask in the magnificent view of the rocks being lapped up by the giant waves coming in from the Indian Ocean. If you\’re itching for a little more privacy, you can even climb over the rocks and land on a small area of sand where you can dip your toes into the water.

2. Batu Bolong Beach

Also one of the undisturbed beaches of Canggu is Batu Bolong Beach, where enthusiasts come for the strong waves that are ideal for surfers. There are no vestiges of modern-day living found at Batu Bolong Beach, except for a hotel and a handful of warungs several meters away from the hotel. Warungs are little, thatched-roofed stalls owned by locals who sell food, drinks and other refreshments.

3. Echo Beach

In Balinese, Echo Beach is called Batu Mejan Beach, but because this place is the favourite among visitors in the area, it has gained its own name in English. Nevertheless, Echo Beach still has a relaxed ******ce than almost all of the tourist-packed beaches in south Bali. If you\’re the type of person who enjoys a holiday by gnawing down on kebabs and Bbq"s with mates while enjoying a cold bottle of beer or two, Echo Beach is the place to be. Additionally, Echo Beach is home to the famous Echo Restaurant, which serves freshly caught seafood every day. Don\’t pass up eating here when you\’re at Echo Beach.

4. Berawa Beach

The great majority of people know Berawa Beach, a. K. A Brawa Beach, as just another little beach in Canggu. What the great majority of people don\’t know is that a minor distance away from the primary beach in Berawa, you can walk into one of the finest places to observe a Bali sunset. Ramble down the beach for several meters until you reach a bamboo bridge that crosses a lagoon. Just sitting quietly next to the bridge is a small warung serving local Balinese dishes and offering one of the finest views in the town. If you\’ve been to this place, you\’ve seen one of the finest sunsets in the whole world.
