On the northern coast of Bali, just beyond the reaches of the popular beach resort of Kuta and the relatively bustling (in Balinese terms) city of Singaraja, is the quiet town of Celukan Bawang. Located in the middle of a secluded bay, it's the perfect place to come if you're looking for some rest and relaxation while also being within easy reach of the island's more energetic hotspots.
Everyone knows that Bali is home to some of the most spectacular beaches in the world, and from the moment you arrive in port at Celukan Bawang you'll be spoilt for choice in terms of amazing coastal stretches. For example, you could head to the nearby beach of Lovina, which consists of striking black sand, making for quite a contrast against the sparkling blue sea. Alternatively, you could take the short trip to Kuta itself and watch the experts take on the surf - or even have a go yourself.
Staying in Celukan Bawang itself, you'll find a wealth of excellent shops, restaurants and boutiques, and if you fancy taking in some Balinese culture then be sure to check out the stunning water temple of Pura Ulun Danu Bratan.
