Lovina/Singaraja

The old Dutch capital of Bali during the colonial era, Singaraja is a quiet town with some quaint old Dutch warehouses on the waterfront. It's easily reached from the south via Bedugul or Kintamani or from Candidasa in the east. The area is famous for its silk textiles, and beautiful replica antiques. Nearby Lovina Beach only a few kilometres to the west is the home of some fine hotels and restaurants. Lovina's beaches are  dark volcanic sand and offer the holidaymaker peace and tranquillity.

Temples: Pulaki and Melanting Temples - outside the town of Pemuteran west from Lovina. Pura Beji and Pura Meduwa Karang - situated on the eastern side of Singaraja. Pura Dalem - situated southeast from Singaraja.
Diving & Snorkelling: The coral of the coastline of Lovina is protected and diving and snorkelling are popular in the clear waters.
Dolphin Viewing: Lovina is the place to be if you want to see the dolphins. With the warm waters off the North Coast, Dolphins like to frolic here and enjoy the sunlight, and also to entertain the locals and tourists, be ready to get up early and welcome the day on a dolphin viewing boat trip.
