DAY 9 Ubud/Nusa Lembongan

Say bye-bye to Bali because today we head to another island, Nusa Lembongan! Jump in the car with the breeze in your hair to the Yellow suspension bridge, an icon of the island. Walk across and admire the oh-so-stunning views. Then we continue on to the seaweed farm (yes, people actually farm seaweed!) Next, we visit Dream Beach, but not without a stop at Devil’s Tear, an incredible lookout point, first. At Dream Beach, dig your toes in the soft white sand, take a dip, or rot in the sun! This evening, at the hotel, don’t miss some time to chill by the pool or walk to Mushroom Bay! Nusa Lembongan is way less touristy than Bali- so much less so that it doesn’t have a harbour. Our feet will get wet as we disembark onto the island so wear appropriate clothing. Don’t worry- our team will keep your bags dry!
