    Start at Wabares for a cool drink. It is just a short walk from the anchor and opens early enough to secure a spot before the crowd arrives.

    Bali Swing

    Head to Bali Swing. Use the extra time to find a good photo platform. The giant swings are suspended high above the jungle valleys, offering the perfect vantage point as the sun begins to dip.
