In Reply to: SANUR BEACH WARNING? posted by SamUK on Friday, 28. February 2003 at 17:48 Bali Time:
to SamUK I will be there this week staying in both kuta [dewi sri] and the griya santrian sanur i have been to bali twice befor, although not an expert i have a fair idea what to expect. the big problem i find with kuta / seminyak beach areas is the comstant hawkers,people offering massages,etc after a day or two you tend to steer well clear of the beach,prefering to stay by the hotel pool.another thing to consider are the sometimes strong currents.i decided to give sanur a try this time as i have heard it is very relaxing and relativly free of hawkers ,etc. i chose the griya santrian as it is right on the beach and sitting in alarge pool by the bar drinking a bintang enjoying the sea breeze sounds like a good idea to me.i,ll be back on the 15th of march so i,ll let you know how evrything went
