Nusa Dua is a purpose built as a tourist complex in southeast Bali. Don’t let that put you off. This gated community offers luxury seaside resorts, beautiful beaches and water activities, and is known for its amazing surf.

Nusa Dua’s international resorts are located between the palm trees and manicured lawns. Choose one of the luxury villas for the whole family or nab a budget apartment for yourself. Many resorts offer all-inclusive packages, so it pays to look for the best prices for the best deals. Relax in the spa, enjoy a Balinese massage or swim lengths in an Olympic size swimming pool. In the evening you can choose from various restaurants or see a traditional Balinese dance in the resort’s bar or lounge.

Visit the beach to enjoy the water sports or relaxation. There are three beaches to choose from, each beach offering all kinds of different activities. Take an early morning stroll along the promenade to see the sunrise, then discover how to Geger Beach seaweed growers’ plant crops while you relax sitting under a coconut tree. Take the kids to Nusa Dua Beach, a wonderful place to swim and snorkel. Go diving, spot dolphins, cruise on a glass-bottomed boat or hop on a jet ski. Your resort can arrange a tour and hire the necessary equipment for you and many resorts are located directly on the beach, making the whole thing effortless fun.

Nusa Dua is known as a top surfing spot. Thanks to a coral reef that lies off the coast, the waves are suitable for both beginners and experienced surfers. The area is perfect for beginners and experts alike get some starter lessons or rent a board and just hit the waves.

If you’d prefer to stay on dry land, then play golf at the Bali Golf and Country Club. The course has 18 holes and incredible views over the ocean. For a bit of culture, visit the Pasifika Museum, where you can see works by Matisse, Gauguin and Theo Meier. Go shopping at the Bali Collection Shopping Centre and get a little retail therapy at the big brand stores.

Nusa Dua is just a 20 minute drive from Denpasar Airport and most resorts offer airport transfers. Once you are in Nusa Dua, you can easily travel anywhere on foot or simply hop on a golf cart.
