There are plenty of dive operators near the resort offering dive trips and courses including Baruna, on the main road in Kalibukbuk and Malibu Dive in Bina Ria Street. Watersports are still in their infancy in Lovina, but Karisma have a lovely beach location in Kaliasem offering parasailing, wakeboarding, kneeboarding and water-skiing. You can watch all the action from the highly recommended Café Spice.
Our beach bar Lovina Blue Sky with bamboo gazebo lies between our pool and the beach.
The most popular Trip in Lovina is the sunrise cruise to see the dolphins in Dolphin Bay – only $ 8,00/person
Another popular outing from Lovina is to Bali's only Buddhist monastery, the Brahma Vihara Ashrama , 10 km southwest of Lovina. This can be combined with a visit to the hot springs at Banjar which you can walk to from the temple (daily 8am-6pm). You can use a combination of local transport and walking to enjoy this trip. Ask the friendly staff for details.
All inter-island buses from Java to Singaraja pass through Lovina, as do Gilimanuk-Singaraja and Amlapura-Gilimanuk services. From Denpasar and the east of Bali, you'll arrive via Singaraja. As the accommodation is so spread out, you need to know where you want to be dropped off.
Tourist shuttle buses also serve the resort and we can arrange car and motorbike hire.
