🗺️ 3-Day Itinerary · Repeat visitors and slow travellers
East Bali is the quiet side of the island: rice terraces below Mount Agung, royal water palaces and coral you can snorkel straight from the beach. This route spends a night in the Sidemen valley and a night on the Amed coast, then finishes with an early start at Lempuyang and the drive back along the coast.
Day 1 · Sidemen
🚗 Airport to Klungkung: about 1–1.5 hours by car; then 20–30 minutes north to Sidemen
Tip: Kertha Gosa is open daily from 8 AM to 5 PM, so stop there on the drive from the airport and reach Sidemen by mid-afternoon.
Day 2 · Amed
🚗 Sidemen to Tirta Gangga: about 1 hour by car; then about 30–40 minutes to Jemeluk in Amed
Tip: The Tirta Gangga ticket (IDR 90,000 for foreign adults) includes the swimming pool, so pack swimwear and a towel.
Day 3 · Amed
🚗 Jemeluk (Amed) to Lempuyang: about 30–40 minutes by car, longer from the eastern end of the coast; Virgin Beach to the airport: about 2–2.5 hours in the afternoon, so plan an evening flight
Tip: Reach Lempuyang before 7 AM to avoid the longest queues; the temple closes to tourists for about five days at each pujawali, its temple festival.
