On Bali's striking south-western coast, Canggu is a surf, yoga and foodie hotspot, perfect for a fun-filled beach break. Just an hour from the airport, this is a land of golden sands and superb swells. Canggu’s enduring popularity means that there’s accommodation here to suit all tastes and budgets, including rustic hideaways, private retreats and luxury resorts. You’ll find 1970s-style minimalist chic as well as impressive vintage art collections at our pick of the best places to stay in Canggu.
Visitors flock to Canggu’s beaches — and with good reason. Batu Bolong, Berawa, Canggu, Echo and Nelayan beaches are amongst our favourites. Borrow a board to surf the waves, take lessons with skilled instructors or simply kick back on the sand. Those less keen to surf can kayak, paddle board, sail or swim instead. For independent boutiques, cafés, co-working spaces and buzzy restaurants, head to Canggu Avenue. Nearby yoga and dance studios or restful spas are ideal for unwinding and reconnecting — Bali’s other famous draw.
Venture inland for hiking and cycling opportunities, or to visit the Subak Museum, the lesser-known Manusa Yadnya and Bali’s beautiful royal palaces. Sunset cocktails and fresh seafood suppers await at the best places to stay in Canggu.
