Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia Cruises

Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia Cruise Port

If you are planning a trip to Bali, you should spend some time in Denpasar, the capital. It is here where you will most likely get your first taste of this extremely beautiful and peaceful region. Bali is an island in Indonesia where Hindu beliefs are the majority, and crafts, dancing and all forms of art are revered. The island is also surrounded by blue water filled with several coral species and tropical fish, perfect for divers. Weather-wise, Bali is close to the equator and has a consistently tropical climate, where the temperature rarely goes below 70 degrees. Here are some of the best things to do and see on your visit to Denpasar, Bali:

• Get your bearings when you spend some time at the Bali Museum, which explains the history of this island, along with the modern day culture. There are lots of artifacts, including some of the crafts produced by the Balinese over the years.
   
• Head out to the Serangan Island Turtle Conservation Centre to learn about efforts being taken to protect the turtles living off the coast.
   
• Get your camera ready when you visit Tanah Lot, a temple carved from rock along the shore. In total, there are seven shore-side temples, each spread out, but still in sight of one another.
   
• Get a massage at Kube Dharma Bakti. The masseurs are graduates from government sponsored schools for the blind.
