“Nightlife and major restaurants are concentrated in the central township of Senggigi” |
Nightlife and major restaurants are concentrated in the central township of Senggigi.
Not a typical tourist resort town with crowded nightspots for socialising or sidewalks endlessly covered with souvenir stands, but all thinkable needs are satisfied here, from pharmacy to minimart to a good selection of places to dine out, plus the occasional pub with live music.
Most dive operators entertain their offices here as well, which makes it easy to compare dive packages on offer.
Mangsit, just north of Senggigi has a well established hotel strip as well, in fact, most of the smaller scale boutique-style hotels are to be found here.
This goes together well with the tranquil sweeping beach scene with traditional outrigger boats resting on the sand. As a backdrop to the beaches are gently rolling hills with lush tropical vegetation.
The nightspots of Senggigi are just minutes away by inexpensive metered taxis.
Mangsit Beach offeres quite good snorkelling as well right in front of the hotels.
