If you’re craving a calm beach experience set apart from the usual chaos on Indonesia’s exciting island of Bali, then Nusa Lembongan may be exactly what you’re looking for. Quality accommodation in Bali is not hard to find either, if you’re seeking a luxury hotel in Nusa Dua. You’ll be well taken care of at a fine beach resort in Bali such as the Westin Nusa Dua Bali. Explore the Nusa Lembongan area to make the most of your stay on the Indonesian archipelago, and this magnificent stretch of sand is blissfully free of the hawkers and traffic that mar much of the rest of the island. Two prime beachfronts merit attention: Jungut Batu and Mushroom Bay. Jungut is located in the northwest corner of the island and boasts a myriad inexpensive restaurants and shopping avenues ripe for exploration. A traditional lure for backpackers and adventure seekers, some of the best sunsets on the island can be savoured from Jungut Batu. A little southwest of Jungut lies Mushroom Bay, a quaint little seaside offering that is quite sheltered and offers some of the calmest blue waters in the area. The best time to enjoy this peaceful little enclave is after 3pm, when the majority of the day-trippers have left and you can enjoy a bite and beverage at one of the many cosy little seaside restaurants that dot the beachfront. Other beaches include Dream Beach and Sunset Beach, which are also popular draws. Water sports such as surfing, diving and snorkelling are popular on Nusa Lembongan so water-sport enthusiasts are sure to have a blast in this out-of-the-way enclave on Bali.
