Sanur
is one of Bali's biggest traditional villages but it's also one
of the most established tourist areas. Sanur was Bali's first
beach resort but still retains its Balinese character and old
style village ambiance. On the southeastern side of Bali, Sanur
beach is easily reachable from Denpasar, about a 5 to 10 minute
drive. Sanur is an excellent site to watch the sun rises, as we
jog along the white sandy beach. Being one of the first resorts
developed in Bali, Sanur maintains its traditions. Only a stone
thrown away from the beach, ancient temples stand as solemn as
they have been in centuries past.
Palm-lined beach, facing the Indian Ocean towards the east, Sanur
is an excellent place to see the sun rise in the morning. "Bali
is the morning of the world", it is the right sentence for
Bali if we has visited Sanur. Offshore reefs protect the beach
against the waves, and make it popular for windsurfing, boating,
and other water sports. It is one of the first areas where one
can find good hotels, restaurants, shops, and other tourist facilities.
It's also the place for some of Bali chic fashion shops, hot
hotels and well-known restaurants. It is a good location to explore
the rest of Bali. Fine hotels, restaurants and modern entertainment
venues complement traditional village activities like drama and
dance, so it's a good place to enjoy the delights of a tropical
island and gain a real appreciation of Balinese culture and local
life. Gradual and early development has meant that Sanur has grown
alongside the village, with hotels located right next door to
local meeting halls and Brahmanic temples. Many hotels have expansive
gardens that face the ocean in a picturesque unbroken seaside
promenade.
