Eat at Martini's Warung. It is a great little local treat set in the corner of the main square where buses drop off. With budget prices, it offers authentic local food, often cooked by Martini herself. Tourists come to chat here, so it is a lively place to start your evening.

Walk up to Bias Tugal Beach. From the police station, walk 100 m up the hill. Directly after Bamboo Paradise turn left (there is a sign that says Bias Tegul) and climb the steep hill along a construction road for about 5 minutes and then descend. This is a beautiful white sandy beach and the best beach in Padang Bai. It is wider than Blue Lagoon Beach and good for swimming, though the currents can be strong. From the path to the beach, you should be able to see the largest mountain on Bali, Mount Agung, a powerful sight.
13:45
End with a sweet treat at Suka Gelato. Grab an ice cream to enjoy while you relax after your climb.
