A Peaceful Escape from the Bustling South
The fresh air of Amed is capable of renewing the soul of the tourist coming from the south of Bali's corner. Being a much bespoke location, Amed is a coastal village located in the north-eastern corner of Bali, suitable for the quieter visitors that like its beautiful coastline, idyllic beach, and non-crowdedness. That is because Amed is famous for its black sand beaches, traditional fishing boats, and the most beautiful sunrises. Moreover, the journey to this idyllic spot is beyond the usual driving through pleasant landscapes but a treasure of adventure in itself.
Diving into Amed’s Underwater World
One of the world's best divinities, it has been said Amed becomes the Mecca of the scuba diving professionals as well as beginners. The variety and quantity of marine flora and fauna let this area be a 'playground' for snorkelers. People of all levels of skills find it easy to hire equipment and make their way to the sea from the docks right behind their houses, where schools located in the region are available for them. There are dive professionals who can guide you along and will help make your trip educational and enjoyable.
Exploring the Cultural Landscape
Amed has other interesting things to offer as well. A long time ago, people of Amed found that they had no other way of living than to exploit the salt in their barren and hostile land, just like their forefathers. One of the most interesting things is the old method of salt production that is observed over there. Creating local products, the art of salt farming is 1000 years old; however, technology plays a significant role in today's salt farming.
Where Nature Meets Wellness
Amed is also a perfect place to disengage and restore bond with nature. Yoga retreats, massages on the beach, and wellness centres make relaxation possible with impressive ocean views. Most of the accommodations, which are in harmony with nature, are either on the hills or just by the beach, granting the guests 360-degree scenic views as well as the sound of the sea. Early morning walks cutting through the hills offer the best way to start a relaxed day for those who are into outdoor exploration.
Planning Your Stay in Amed
At the same time, Amed doesn't feel like a place that is out of reach, while it in fact has all the necessities for a nice stay—seafood restaurants, cafes with tropical views, and handmade goods markets. The warm months from April to October are the perfect time to see the place, as the weather is fine for diving and exploring. The little village in Bali is a getaway for couples in love, divers, or culture seekers who are after an authentic experience away from the masses.
