Lovina Beach
Pantai Lovina
A black-sand beach on North Bali, famous for early-morning trips on traditional boats to see wild dolphins. The pace is quiet and relaxed.
Lovina lies on Bali's north coast and is made up of several fishing villages, with calm waves and volcanic black-sand beaches. The signature activity is heading out around 6 a.m. on a traditional jukung outrigger boat to look for wild dolphins, which costs about IDR 150,000-200,000 per person. Many dolphin boats operate here, so choose a boatman who keeps a respectful distance from the dolphins. Nearby are the Banjar hot springs, the Brahmavihara Arama Buddhist monastery and northern waterfalls. It is about 2.5 hours by car from Ubud, and most people stay one night.
