Adventure Travel Asia: Bali, Indonesia (Kintamani and Kuta Beach)

Kintamani

Kintamani is one of the cooler mountainous region of Bali where growing fruit and vegetables is the main produce. The main attraction for travellers Mt. Batur and beside it, Lake Batur.

Mt. Batur is an active Volcano. I'm not sure when it last erupted, but you can see from the panoramic view the burned surroundings. The last eruption must be very recent. Click image to view large.



A popular tourist spot would be restaurants located along the cliffsides, offering lunch while enjoying this fantastic view.







Kuta Beach
Kuta beach is probably what you'll often see when you people show you pics of Bali. Waves are good for surfing.



You need to be careful when swimming in areas with red flags such as this.



It's a sign saying that swimming is prohibited in such areas (although you still see people swimming). It's a warning that currents in that area are strong and can suck you into the open seas.



You'll also enjoy the sunset from this side of Bali island.

Many restaurants and bars can be found at Kuta beach area where you can enjoy the popular Indonesian beer, Bintang.


It's good and it's very cheap! A little less than US$1!!!
