The black-sand beach of Lovina stretches gracefully for 10 kilometers across six charming villages on Bali’s tranquil northern coast. Just a short drive from Singaraja, the island’s former capital, Lovina offers a laid-back alternative to the bustling Kuta-Tuban scene. Here, calm waters invite safe swimming and beachside relaxation. For those craving a bit more adventure, nearby Bratan Lake and mountain villages with clove and coffee plantations provide scenic escapes. Further west lies Pemuteran—a humble stop on the road to Java, yet home to one of Bali’s finest treasures: Menjangan Island. Just offshore, this marine sanctuary boasts crystal-clear waters, vibrant coral reefs, and unforgettable diving and snorkeling experiences, making it a must for underwater enthusiasts exploring the north.
