Not as famous at Kuta Beach, nearby Seminyak has a lot to offer on its own as a resort town and beach. Here are several reasons why you should consider Seminyak over its more overcrowded predecessor for your next Bali holiday.
Scuba Diving
You can scuba dive responsibly whether you are qualified or not you can try it out with Seminyak’s best diving school Adventure Scuba Diving Bali which is a 15-minute drive from the Studios @ Alila Seminyak.
The Nayman Gallery
Nyaman Gallery is famous among the Bali art scene. It has a massive showcase that highlights Balinese and Indonesian artists while providing a platform for up-and-coming artists. There’s a large collection of ceramics, paintings, sculptures, ornate carvings, handblown glass and oil paintings.
Horse Riding
There’s a two-hour horse ride along the picturesque beaches from Seminyak to Canggu. There are a variety of ponies to choose from.
Surfing
Thanks to the lack of huge crowds but a brilliant set of waves you can enjoy a great surfing session at Seminyak beach or any of the other stretches that feature luxury hotels. Seminyak is a bit inconsistent when compared to Kuta beach, but it is every bit as beautiful.
Visit Pura Petitenget
One of the six most important sea temples in Bali, Pura Petitenget is a must-visit site for its gabled roofs and intriguing architecture. The word ‘pura petitenget’ means magic box and the temple was named after a monk that owned a magic box visited the temple regularly in the 16th century.
