    Sanur

    October 17, 2019 in Indonesia ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

    Our second destination in Bali was Sanur, a beach town on the south-east coast. We didn't really want a party town but also not one of the 5 star resort towns and Sanur seemed like a good option for a laid back place, especially as it is the departure point for boats to Nusa Lembongan where we planned to go after.
    We had some long walks along the beach road where we saw lots of hotels and restaurants from really fancy ones to simple warung places. The beach was interesting because there were lots of boats shaped like spiders, we guessed to keep them stable when the sea is rough. Actually the water is extremely calm at the beach, a reef about 100 metres out breaks the waves long before they reach the shore. We could see surfers in the distance following along the line of the reef.
    In the evenings we went to the night market, the first one we found in Bali. It was much smaller and calmer than the Taiwanese or Korean versions but we found some very nice food including some great chocolate and coconut desserts and chicken/beef meatballs soup.
