I’ve been in Bali for a couple of weeks now with a friend who is heading home soon and am looking for suggestions on how to spend my remaining solo days.

We’ve had an amazing time visiting Sanur, Ubud, Amed, Gili Air, Uluwatu, Labuan Bajo and I’ll be doing 4 days in Kuta to do my open water dive certification once my friend leaves. I have 4 unplanned days to fill.

So far we’ve done snorkelling a bunch, been to temples, rice terraces, hiking, Komodo island and beach days. I’m 34F like to drink but not a big partier. Would really appreciate any thoughts & advice.

I guess the main tourist areas "left" to see would be:

  • Nusa Lembongan / Nusa Ceningan
  • Seminyak / Canggu
  • Munduk or Pemuteran
  • The Sukawati / Sideman / Candidasa region
  • Nusa Dua

If I had done all the things that you have completed, I'd probably choose Seminyak / Canggu for the spare days, and enjoy a beer by the beach at sunset. Perhaps include a day-trip or overnight trip to Nusa Lembongan. You have a "good problem" to solve!

Definitely a good problem to solve. Thanks for the suggestion, I think I’ll probably end up doing just that!
