A quiet northern port on the island of Bali.

4.9/5 ⭐Google 600+ Reviews | A+ Better Business Bureau

Overview
Celukan Bawang is a local and commercial port located on the northern coast of Bali, Indonesia. While not as famous or bustling as the southern tourist hubs, Celukan Bawang serves as a crucial gateway to the more serene and authentic northern part of the island. It offers a glimpse into traditional Balinese life, far from the mass tourism, characterized by its working harbor, proximity to lush rice paddies, and access to unique cultural and natural attractions.
Celukan Bawang is an increasingly popular cruise port of call for itineraries exploring Southeast Asia, Indonesia, and sometimes repositioning cruises. Cruise ships typically dock directly at the port, which is primarily industrial. Passengers are usually met by local transport or tour operators for excursions into the surrounding region. A visit to Celukan Bawang offers cruise passengers a chance to discover a quieter, more traditional side of Bali, explore its scenic landscapes, and experience genuine local hospitality away from the island's more developed areas.
Embark on a scenic drive through the verdant North Bali countryside, characterized by its picturesque rice paddies and traditional villages. Witness local farmers at work and appreciate the lush, terraced landscapes that are iconic to Bali.
Tip: Hire a local guide or taxi for the day to navigate the rural roads and gain insights into local agricultural practices.
Journey to one of North Bali's stunning natural wonders: Gitgit Waterfall, a popular and easily accessible cascade, or the more adventurous Sekumpul Waterfall, considered by many to be Bali's most beautiful. Enjoy the refreshing spray and lush surroundings.
Tip: Wear comfortable walking shoes with good grip, as paths can be uneven and wet. Bring swimwear if you wish to take a dip in the natural pools.
Travel inland to visit Ulun Danu Beratan Temple, a picturesque Hindu water temple located on the shores of Lake Beratan. This iconic temple, often depicted on Indonesian banknotes, is known for its serene setting amidst mountains and its floating shrines dedicated to the lake goddess.
Tip: Arrive early in the morning for the best light and fewer crowds, and capture stunning reflections of the temple on the lake's surface.
Head to the highland region around Munduk, known for its cooler climate and fertile soil, perfect for coffee plantations. Take a tour to learn about the coffee-making process, from bean to cup, and enjoy a tasting of local Balinese coffee.
Tip: Many plantations also offer tastings of other local produce like spices and tropical fruits. Consider trying the famous (and expensive) Luwak coffee if offered.
Visit Singaraja, Bali's former colonial capital, located just east of Celukan Bawang. Explore its historic streets, browse the traditional markets, and observe the blend of Dutch colonial and Chinese architecture, offering a glimpse into the island's past as a trading port.
Tip: The local market in Singaraja is bustling and authentic, providing a good opportunity for cultural immersion and souvenir shopping.
Enjoy some downtime at one of North Bali's quieter beaches, such as Lovina Beach, famous for its black volcanic sand and calm waters. It's a great spot for swimming or simply relaxing away from the busier southern beaches.
Tip: Lovina is well-known for dolphin watching tours, typically departing very early in the morning, which might be challenging to fit into a standard cruise day.
