About Canggu
Canggu is a beautiful place set amongst the rice fields. Echo Beach is famous to surfers worldwide, and Canggu has become the place of choice for many expats and local surfers to live and so there is a sense of community here. Canggu provides the perfect balance for those in search of the cultural beauty of Balinese life yet close to a selection of restaurants and conveniences. With so much traffic congestion and hustle madness, many people are choosing their Bali experience based at Canggu, the right mix of beaches, countryside, sunsets and culture.
There are many dining choices in and around Canggu and all very inexpensive. Don’t miss out on the BBQ at Echo Beach, an interesting happening and atmospheric place! They set up outside practically on top of the water for the evening BBQ under lights and live music on Sundays. The Beach House being popular with seafood barbecues every night, also Monkey Frescro or pop into Dian Cafe. They have tables right on the beach and enjoy one of the best burgers in Bali. Om is fantastic and try Deus ex Machina which is one of those lifestyle kind of places, beautiful building with a gallery, photographic studio, shop and café. Enjoy fabulous meals in their restaurant and remember the casual live music on Sunday evenings. The food is just great and you must try the delicious mint and lime frozen cocktail. Across from Deus is a fabulous spot for eating breakfast, brunch and just hanging out, Betelnut Café, healthy and cheap. Just try it!
Canggu beach and Echo beach offer something for all levels of surfer. There is a range of soft, mellow waves perfect for beginners to rippable peaks perfect for high performance surfing and the travelling professional. Combined with the many cafes around the main break at Echo Beach this makes the perfect day for any surfer.
Since Canggu faces further South than Kuta Beach, it will often be a bit bigger. However, it is also more affected by the trade winds and it will often be cross-shore.
