Candidasa, Candi Dasa

Candidasa lies on the beachfront in Manggis, about 65 kilometers from Denpasar. A nearby temple houses important archaeological remains, including figurines and statues, thus accounting for the area's popularity among tourists. Since the 1980s, investors have been buying up land on the white sand beachfront here and erecting scores of bungalows, cafes and restaurants. Candidasa is a great place to get away from it all, a truly peaceful paradise, blessed with idyllic beach coves and dotted with charming homestays. One of the best places to stay at Candi Dasa is the Rama Candi Dasa Resort.
