Canggu is a popular surf spot located in the northwest of Kuta. The place is relatively quiet---the vast expanse of the rice fields, the soothing sound of the waves and the cool breezes in the evening give it an unmatched serenity. It is little wonder that it is fast emerging as the popular choice for the expats and tourists who come here for long stays in order to experience oneness with nature. The picture perfect vacation villas are more popular than the hotels here as they provide the visitors the ideal opportunity to commune with the scenic surroundings in privacy and comfort.
You can enjoy long evening walks along the beach and watch the stunning sunset in the horizon. Semiyank, another popular tourist hang-out is twenty minutes drive away and so if you are looking up for some action to charge you up, you can try out the nightclubs where people party till the wee hours of the morning or go shopping for traditional Bali antiques, handicrafts and souvenirs during the day.
