Quiet end of the road huge black sand beach divided by Balian River. Black cobblestones and one of the best user friendly surf spots in Bali. Maybe 10 different warungs (eating places) most looking at the surf and sunsets. This feels like the Bali I wanted to see. Much of the island is getting "loved to death" with development run amuck. I almost don't want to share this gem, lest it too gets overwhelmed. If you are looking for night club type action stay in Kuta, non here.
3. Jatiluwih Green Land

4.5 based on 2,623 reviews
Nominated for designation as a UNESCO World Heritage site, Jatiluwih offers a beautiful view of contoured rice terraces irrigated using an impressive communal water system developed by Balinese farmers. The scenic drive through the quaint villages and verdant slopes of the central coastal regency of Tabanan adds to the experience.

The Jatiluwih rice terraces in the namesake upland village in West Bali are most famous for their dramatic and exotic landscapes. The cool highlands and the breathtaking scenery of this village at the foot of Mount Batukaru makes for wonderful photo opportunities, and serves as a soothing retreat away from the island’s crowded south. Once a UNESCO Cultural Heritage Site candidate, the Jatiluwih rice terraces comprise over 600 hectares of rice fields that follow the flowing topography of the Batukaru mountain range. These are maintained by a traditional water management cooperative known as ‘subak’, which dates back to the 9th century. The cooperative itself eventually won recognition as a dominant factor in Bali’s ‘cultural landscape’ entry on the heritage list.

Lake Beratan is a lake located in Bedugul, Candikuning Village, Baturiti District, Tabanan Regency, Bali. In the middle of the lake there is a temple namely Ulun Danu Temple, which is a place of worship to Sang Hyang Dewi Danu as a fertility giver. Because the location of the Beratan lake is on a high land, about 1,300 meters above sea level. Making the Beratan Bedugul lake area has cool air during the day and the fog will appear after 12:00 noon. My family and I arrived there at around 12 noon and the weather was cloudy and rather foggy. Many water activities are offered there, and many amazing photo spots can be found there. My 6 year old daughter is very enthusiastic and having fun there.

Beautiful coastline of multiple temples. Before you get to the pathway along the ocean where the temples are located, you can have your taxi or Grab driver drop you off outside the gate. If the driver drops you off inside, you’ll have to pay the car entry fee. Before walking towards the coastline, you’ll walk through a shopping area where there are bathrooms, restaurants, cafés, and local craft merchants. I’ve been told most people go and watch the sunset here. We went in the middle of the day and the view of the coastline is breathtaking as well as viewing the ancient temples. If my memory is correct, you can only enter one of the temples if you have appropriate clothing. It was difficult to confirm a Grab driver for a pick-up so I highly recommend if you can’t find one, the taxi stand in the main parking lot has set pricing based on the district you’re traveling to.
