A sparkling gem on the southwestern tip of Bali’s Bukit Peninsula, Uluwatu is famed for its limestone cliff and white sand panoramas – and its big-league waves. Surfers from all over the world come here for the surf breaks but if you don’t fancy joining them, head to one of the cliff-side restaurants or cafes to watch, cocktail in hand. Padang Padang, a gorgeous beach notched into the limestone, is another iconic hang out for the surfers but it’s also great for a swim and a lounge – and you might even recognise the scenery from the film Eat, Pray, Love. You’ll also spot Uluwatu Temple in the distance, one of Bali’s most iconic sea temples that gazes over the ocean some 70 metres below from its clifftop perch. Visit at sunset for the best views and then catch a traditional Kecak dance performance, accompanied by the chanting of male dancers.
