Nusa Dua competes with some other areas in Bali for being the most distinguished holiday resort in Bali. The wonderful international hotels make it a preferred destination for the more upper class tourist. This area has been very well developed and provides you with modern roads, and beautiful gardens that are very well maintained. There is no road through Nusa Dua and as a consequence it's a really quiet place to visit without the stupendously crowded beaches that you're going to find in the more budget oriented resorts and spots.
Activities include many water sports that you can opt to partake in, most of these are organized by the hotel you are living in and keep the volume of visitors down by making them a customized service. The diving in Nusa Dua is superb as the lagoon is protected and there are no huge waves. The water is a lot hotter here and therefore the sea life is abundant and easily worth taking a look at. Diving lessons are available, or you can just do some snorkeling and get the same overwhelming experience if you're a bit wary about scuba diving. You can ask at the hotel you are staying in about the Bali tours available that will give you a personal service.
If the tide is low there are 2 small islands that you can walk to or hire a boat. These aren't populated and you may be lucky enough to have an island all to oneself for a day. Just be careful if you are walking there that you don't get marooned by the incoming tide, the hotel will be ready to advise you on the tides.
For the more leisure conscious tourist, there is lots of shopping areas to browse through; Nusa Dua is known for its beautiful shops and shopping facilities. Bali shopping areas are definitely worth visiting as you will pick up some increadible bargains. The nightlife here is also much different from the more common resorts and has a tendency to have more class and sophistication with superb restaurants , bars and clubs.
Being that this is one of the hottest and up market resorts in Bali, it is imperative that you book your hotel or villa in advance. Going to Bali with the intention of staying here and finding that the hotels are totally booked will be very disappointing to say the least. Nusa Dua hotels mostly all offer air-con, but just ask to make certain, there's little worse than the humidity at night if you are not accustomed to it.
If taking a short break to explore the island it is a good idea to bear a few things in mind. The more agricultural areas are not as accommodating when it comes to toilets, you will stumble on some real horrors. Always carry a toilet roll with you as few rural toilets will supply any or hand soap, so take some of that with you as well .
There are thousands of temples that are dotted all over the island and a visit to Bali without a visit to one would not be a complete trip to Bali. You would be missing a view into the culture and design of an excellent culture. Firstly you will be needed to wear a sarong when entering the temples and though they do offer them for rent at every temple ; it is much easier to take your own therefore avoiding having to queue up particularly if there is a large tour group.
