August along the beaches of Sanur & Padang Galak. Hiring one of the traditional jukungs (which are still used for fishing) for a sail at high tide. A visit to the Bali Seawalker is a great family activity - under a pontoon in a specially designed helmet, walk on the sandy sea bed to view beautiful reefs with colourful fish. A paved footpath spanning some 8km from north to south connects the Sanur coast & is a great place for a morning jog or cycle & breakfast along the way! A visit to Le Mayeur Museum, located right on the main Sanur beach of Sindhum - a memorial housing the artworks & personal history of Belgium artist Adrien-Jean Le Mayeur de Merpres.

TIME DIFFERENCES

TRAVEL INSURANCE

Getting around in Bali is easy. Local taxis are readily available & quite inexpensiv by Australian standards. Be sure to use a metered taxi though. Smartphone apps like GrabTaxi can be very useful & cost effective & the fare is shown at time of booking. As an approx. guide, a taxi can cost approx. A$10 - $15 between Sanur & Denpasar & approx. A$20 - $25 between the beach areas & Ubud. Bicycles, motorbikes & cars can be hired in Bali, however due to the high incidence of accidents, we strongly advise against riding a motorcycle or driving a car. A valid Australian & International Driver’s Licence is the legal requirement for car & motorbike hire & is strongly enforced by local police.

Travel insurance to cover loss of property, cancellation fees, hospital treatment, medical evacuation, etc. is essential for anyone travelling outside of Australia. Overseas medical costs are expensive and not covered by Australian medical insurance. Your travel agent can assist in purchasing appropriate travel insurance for your destination. The Australian Government has provided information regarding the need for adequate insurance including some case studies, refer to www.smartraveller.gov.au/insurance

YOUR HEALTH & SAFETY FIRST Vaccinations: It is the responsibility of the traveller to check with health professionals for information on recommended vaccinations or other precautions required for the country that you are visiting. Be aware that when travelling you are subject to local laws and customs which may differ from Australian laws. The Australian Government has provided important information about your specific destination at www.smartraveller.gov.au

DRINKING WATER It is not recommended to drink tap water. Bottled

The following are the time differences to Bali: Syd/Mel/Bne/Hba -2 hrs Adl/Drw -1.30 hrs Per Same Indonesia is a further hour behind during Australian Daylight Saving in participating states.

GETTING AROUND

ELECTRICITY Most hotels have 220 volt power outlet. The plugs used are different from Australia so in most cases you will require an international plug adapter.

TIPPING Taxes & service charges on rooms are included in the price of your holiday. Eating & drinking establishments will often add a 10-20% service charge, so tipping is not required. If no service charge has been added, a tip of 5-10% would be appreciated.

MAJOR FESTIVAL HOLIDAYS NYEPI DAY - This is a day of complete stillness to mark the Balinese New Year. The Airport & all shops are closed for this day & tourists are required to remain in the confines of their hotel where special activities are organised. Spectacular ceremonies the day prior, make this one of the most interesting times to visit Bali. The date changes each year & in 2017, falls on Tuesday 28th March & in 2018 on the 17th March.
