Top 5 to do in Lovina
Lovina area is an interesting destination for those who love to experience traditional culture
in peaceful, rural surroundings of the tranquil northern Bali.
Away from the bubbly and touristy spots of the south, you find here the authentic way of Balinese life.
Bali Surya Tour Services Lovina welcomes you here and recommends the
TOP TWELVE highlights you should not miss to do or see in Lovina:
- LOVINA BEACHES
Like almost all beaches in the north, Lovina area offers black sand beaches with easy access to the mellow Bali Sea. You do not find big waves, crushing surf, or strong current here – so ideal relaxing and swimming also for families with younger kids. As all around Bali, make sure you have high tide when planning to swim.
Please consider there is no infrastructure on the beaches in Lovina thus you will not find sunbeds, beach bars or similar. You can buy food and drinks in the local warungs nearby. The most beautiful beach in Central Lovina (from my point of view) is cosy Ganesha Beach at the end of Jalan Kartika.
- BRAHMA VIHARA ARAMA (BUDDHIST MONASTERY)
A definitely “must see” or better “must feel” place around Lovina is the only Buddhist monastery on hinduistic Bali, Brahma Vihara Arama. Located in the hills of Banyar, about 30 minutes away from Central Lovina and 5 minutes from Holy Hot Springs, this peaceful place invites to see the prayer rooms, buddha statues and beautiful gardens as well as an impressive mini replica of the world’s largest Buddhist archaeological site, Borobudur, on its highest grounds. This meditation areal spreads a very special energy and opens the view far over the hills to the ocean.
- DOLPHIN TOURS LOVINA
Lovina area is famous for its dolphins. Many guests are coming for dolphin watching tours from all over Bali and the neighbour islands.
In the early morning, the dolphins come close to the coast where you have the chance to spend some time with this lovely creatures. Aboard a traditional fishing boat with max. 4 people, you spend about 2 hours on the sea and enjoy this entertaining journey of the dolphins in the raising sun.
Most boats are leaving at 6 am, going at 7 or 8 guarantees a more quiet atmosphere.
- SNORKELING AND DIVING
Directly off shore Central Lovina you have stunning Lovina Reef for both, snorkeling and diving. For snorkeling, just rent spontaneously a boat on the beach. Many dive centers are located in the village for those who like to try or improve their skills and require the equipment.
The probably most beautiful spot in terms of under water diversity is around Menjangan Island in the North Bali National Park, about 2 hours drive from Lovina.
Most probably you will spot seaturtles – a really touching experience!
- RELAX AT HOLY HOT SPRINGS BANJAR
A 30 minutes drive from Lovina, the holy hot springs or ‘Air Panas’ of Banjar are set in a beautiful tropical garden. The sulphuric water in the three pitorreske basins is of volcanic origin and has a pleasant warm temperature of 35 – 39 degrees Celcius. You will see lots of locals coming here to cure rheumatic or other diseases.
Changing rooms, lockers and restaurant available. (Also a spa what is la-la).
Great to combine with a visit at the Buddhist Monastery in Banyar.
