After checking out a few surf spots on the southern peninsula of the island I decided I liked Ulu Watu best. This is where some of the largest sets in Bali can be found. Although you can’t sit on the beach and watch the surfers there are plenty of restaurants built in the cliff which offers great views.
Being the good tourist I am we went to the nearby Ultawatu Temple to see sunset. It’s out on a cliff and it is one of nine directional temples said to protect Bali from evil spirits. This small Hindu temple is known for the aggressive monkeys who often steal tourists’ hats and glasses.
Tomorrow we are off to the island of Flores in search of some great diving and komodo dragons.
