At eastern extremity of majestic Amuk Bay, the beachside resort of Candidasa offers some of the finest dining and best nightlife in the east of Bali, as well as superb snorkelling and diving in its crystalline waters. It’s also one of the most superbly situated of the island’s resorts, enfolded by a hinterland of dramatic hills, idyllic villages and terraced rice fields, with the majestic, sacred form of Gunung Agung dominating the horizon.
