If it's natural beauty you're after, Tabanan has no shortage of breathtaking vistas of terraced rice paddies, black sand beaches, and looming mountains. There is a real sense of authentic Bali here, as the rampant development of Bali's southern coasts further to the east has not yet marred the countryside of Tabanan. Whether you're in for some surfing, hiking up thickly forested trails, cruising around in a 4-wheel drive or simply relaxing in a luxury villa, Tabanan offers a scenic escape.
