  Kopi Luwak

  Kopi luwak is considered by coffee lovers across the world to be the stuff of legends. Derived from the defecation of palm civet cats, these coffee beans create a beverage that is both strong and unique in flavour. This flavour is tasted at its best when the coffee is consumed without sugar or milk. It is said to be the most expensive coffee in the world, due to its unconventional origins and high demand.

  Pura Tanah Lot

  Famed for its stunning views of sunset, Pura Tanah Lot is a seaside temple that rests upon an offshore rock formation. It is said to date back to the 16th century, and is regarded as an important part of both Hinduism and Balinese mythology by locals. It can only be reached during periods of low tide, and it is recommended that its surrounding waters be avoided when the tide is high, as they are said to be filled with venomous sea snakes.

  Bubur Injin

  Literally translated as ‘black rice pudding’, bubur injin is one of Bali’s most favoured delicacies. It showcases a marriage between glutinous black rice and coconut milk, united by palm sugar. Although its sweet and slightly savoury nature—due to the inclusion of salt when cooking it—suggests that it is best eaten as a dessert after meals, Balinese people often enjoy it for breakfast as well.

  Waterbom Bali

  Spanning 3.8 hectares of land, Waterbom Bali promises a time of great fun for the whole family. The theme park is known for its wide range of attractions, many of which revolve around getting yourself wet, as its name implies.

  Tirta Gangga

  Tirta Gangga stands today as a reminder of the glory that blanketed Bali during the time of the Karangasem Kingdom. This water palace is especially renowned for its vast pools and lavish greenery, as well as for its intricate sculptures and carvings. Be respectful when visiting Tirta Gangga, though, as the waters of this palace are considered to be holy by locals and are frequently used in temple ceremonies.
