Surfing Bali

Contrary to common surf folklore not all surfers are bums. And the more affluent surfers are going to Bali to catch the perfect wave. At the Nusa Lembongan Resort ($235, night), located on Nusa Lemobongan island, one can find himself in one of the twelve private villas situated in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Located 12 miles off the coast of Bali, catching a 30 minute boat ride to the island is your only way of getting there. However, surfing twelve foot swells is not the only thing to do here as coral fishing, snorkeling, island dining and canoeing are the way of the land. Several discounted packages are currently available.
