LOVINA MAP

Lovina Facts

In the western part of Singaraja, long stretch of black sand beach encompasses Anturan, Tukad Mungga, Kalibukbuk, Kaliasem and Temukus villages collectively called Lovina.

Lovina is for those who like still waters (no surf) and are not fussy about the colour of the beach. Visitors may even encounter some local dolphins. Many cheap losmens are available right on the beach.

Lining up of busy losmen and hotels with the depleted shady sea makes Lovina one of the most stirring beaches in Bali.

Tranquility, incredible under water world and dolphins are the magnetism of Lovina. From Lovina, visiting Pulau Menjangan, which is a part of West Bali National Park will be interesting for diving lover.

Singaraja

Singaraja is the largest city after Denpasar. The population includes many ethnic and religious groups.

Singaraja has a historical library, The Gedong Kirtya that collects more than 3,000 Balinese manuscripts. The Dutch established it in the late 1920s. It has the finest collection of lontar, which is a traditional books emblazoned on palm leaf strips and potted between two pieces of wood or bamboo.

Gitgit

Further 10 km south of Singaraja will lead visitors to Gitgit Waterfall, Bali's highest waterfall where the inviting cool waters of the river below are worth a dip into.

From Gitgit, tourists looking for a quiet beach resort can head 10 km west from Singaraja to Lovina, a long stretch of beach with hotels and bungalows. The black sand beach is safe and a perfect place for swimming and snorkeling.
