BALI ISLAND was voted the best tourist destination island in Asia by Conde Nest Traveler readers. Based on survey results, the Island of the Gods beats other amazing islands in Thailand and Vietnam. This island combines surfing, spirituality and splendor in a pampering that is rarely found anywhere else.
This award is one of the most respected in the travel industry, so it is a source of pride for Bali. World travelers now know where to go for an exotic adventure in Asia. There are many reasons why tourists choose this island as the best island. Reporting from Travel of Path, here are the reasons why tourists fall in love with Bali.
1. Canggu is this year’s favorite hotspot
Canggu Beach is a popular destination in Bali this year. The area is filled with beach clubs and a vibrant nightlife, making it a top choice for the younger generation of globetrotters.
However, tourists go to this beach not just to party. The beaches are stunning, great for just spending a cool day in the sun or enjoying the waves. This area attracts tourists from all over the world, so many digital nomads choose to work in trendy cafes or just make new friends.
2. There are new rules but it’s still fun
Bali has been the talk of the town all year round with the implementation of new regulations for tourists. The government is preventing the entry of “naughty” tourists by setting new rules that may be a barrier for some tourists.
However, most tourists are well-behaved and don’t need to be “naughty” to have a good time in Bali. With unrivaled beaches, surf breaks and unspoiled nature, it’s easy to understand why tourists still flock here. Even with new regulations, reports of heavy traffic, and dense crowds, tourists still enjoy going to Bali.
3. The best resorts
Bali has some of the best resorts not only in Indonesia but also in all of Asia, especially along the coast. In fact, Bali also ranks high in Conde Nast’s ‘best resorts in the world’ category. Bali’s beautiful coastline stretches for miles and is perhaps best enjoyed at some of the best resorts in the world.
4. There are always new destinations
Sometimes tourists tend to visit the most common places, but in Bali, there are always new places if you want to discover them. It’s great to get a feel for what other people like in the most popular destinations, but finding more authentic destinations with fewer tourists can be just as fun.
Nusa Penida for example. This separate island off the coast of Bali has become a very popular day trip spot. More than 2 million tourists have taken the short trip this year. While not all Bali tourists include this island on their list, it is becoming more and more popular as time goes by and, most likely, will continue to do so.
Other travelers even love Bali’s lesser-visited islands, which offer similar stunning views with a more relaxed atmosphere like Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Ceningan. [sources/photo special]
