The island of the gods and its archipelago of 8 enchanting islands
Bali is the island of the gods: the terraced rice fields of Tegallalang, the clifftop temples of Tanah Lot and Uluwatu, Ubud's monkey forest, and legendary surfing at Kuta and Seminyak. But it's a whole archipelago to explore: Nusa Penida with its dizzying cliffs plunging into the Indian Ocean, Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan linked by a suspension bridge, and the three Gili Islands (Trawangan, Air and Meno) with their white-sand beaches and sea turtles within snorkelling reach. To the east, Lombok offers wilder scenery with the Rinjani volcano (3,726 m) and the pristine beaches of Kuta Lombok. Eight islands, eight moods, one journey.
