The gitgit waterfall is by far the best known waterfall in Bali. The water falls straight down from a 40 meter height. The waterfall is active throughout the entire year, but is at its most impressive when it is the raining season.

The fine mist will make you wet and will refresh you

Another popular activity is dolphin watching at Lovina Beach, which is what the beach is famous for. No guarantees can be made that the dolphins will show up, but there is a good chance they will. In the early morning the dolphins swim up to the coast to hunt for small fish. The best way to get a glimpse of these magnificent animals is to take a boat trip before sunrise. There are several fishing boats and traditional Jukungs converted for this purpose. Another welcome bonus is that you will get to enjoy a beautiful sunrise. There can be a lot of boats out on the water so people don’t always like the dolphin watching. There is also a second option and that is that you choose to go Tuna Fishi
