photographie-irie > Bali Dive Boat on the Beach, Sanur, Bali, Indonesia     
    
Visitors to Bali spend much of their time at beach sports, with great diving, snorkeling, swimming, surfing, boating and just hanging at the beach. The funny thing about this is that locals steeped in animist-hindu tradition tend to avoid the sea for fear of water demons. This beached dive boat may not appear currently active, but might be tomorrow. Just roll it on the logs into the surf and you're ready to do a Bali Dive.

Sanur is a quiet alternative to the classic tourist mecca on the opposite coast, Kuta. While Kuta is glitzy, crowded with tourists and touts, and has good surfing, Sanur is more laid back with a smoother surf. Festive banners join palm trees to line the beach.

Kids in Bali are generally pretty interactive and loved posing for the camera, often goofing for it if they had the chance. They also showed little inhibition expressing friendship and positive feelings. It was common to see two girls or two boys holding hands or walking arm in arm, without any implications beyond friendship.

The mellow beaches of Sanur offer smaller crowds and excitement than Kuta, an offshore reef that keeps waters calm and aesthetically pleasing development that for the most past is low key and relaxing

Boats are everywhere along the beaches in Bali despite local apprehensions about the sea and it's demons. Fishing is one reason, since  the ocean's bounty is popular for meals both locally and with tourists.  Big income from taking visitors snorkeling, diving and sightseeing also convinces many to challenge traditional sea fearing attitudes.

The little town of Amed in the eastern coast of Bali is one of the most relaxed and mellow places I have been. An ultimate chill destination.

You meet lots of locals on the beach trying to sell activities, trinkets and handicrafts to tourists. Get past the sell and they can be pretty relaxed and interesting, as there's always an opportunity to sell you something in five minutes time. Bowl hats are multi- purpose objects, both hat and bowl.
