This is the ultimate place for a romantic dinner. Your dining table is on the beach, on the sand, The waves just steps away. Musician planing and singing, candle light dinner. Delicious seafood grill over sugar cane....
Just a short 10-15 mins ride from Kuta, Jimbarang Bay is one of the must stops for dinning in Bali. Prices can be expensive though, especially if you let a tour guide/driver sent you there. Friends who had wanted to go to a particular restraunt there got guides who told them they don't know which one it is and end up at the same expensive place I went. So, if you have resturant you want to go, try calling up the place and see if they will sent a driver to you and sent you back FOC. Many restraurants and spas provide such services in Bali

Uluwatu Temple
Pura Luhur Uluwatu is located on the cliff facing the southwest of Bali. Located high above the cliff, the temple offers spectacular views.
Go at sunset to enjoy the beautiful sunset and watch their Kecak Dance performance in the open air theater. There are many aggressive monkeys on the temple grounds so guard your belongings with care. This little monkey climb onto our backpack and took our mineral water before we can figure out what is going on.

Turtle Island, Moncot Sari Turtle Farm
This was a pleasant surprise. We had no idea of its existence until our guide bring us to a beach at Nusa Dua. There, we were introduce to a number of activities we can do from scuba diving to skate boarding...of course those are not the stuff we can do with a 3 yr old.
We finally spot the item - to take a boat ride (with clear fiber glass bottom so we can see the marine life beneath) to the turtle island and back. It cost USD50 per pax on the menu. But we manage to bargain it down so SGD 50 for the 3 of us.
The boat ride is nice and start out gentle. The water is clear but there were not too much marine life beneath till we stop at a spot with plenty of fishes. We were given bread to feed the fishes with silver and purple stripes and the 3 yr old have a great time doing that.
Turtle island, as in the name sake is a wild life farm that rears many turtles. The big ones are big enough for our 3 yr old to ride on and we can see little baby turtles and touch and hold the turtles with the help of the designated guide from the farm. Besides turtles, there are hedgehogs, snakes, iguana, bats, eagles, hawks and falcons as well as squirrels and rabbits as part of the wild life collection. Most of the animals are "domesticated and we can touch and hold the snakes, iguanas, bats and falcons if we are game enough. Takers, anyone?
