Canggu is a beautiful little town that's fast growing in popularity. The place is just 30 minutes from the popular resort of Seminyak and easy to access from Anantara Seminyak Bali Resort. The place is laid back with few streets and plenty of little restaurants and cafes to spend some time at. Explore the popular Deus Temple of Enthusiasm and spend loads of time on the beach; there you can swim, surf and chill. The place is ideal for a day trip from your Seminyak beach resort for those rather stylishly laid back evenings of good coffee and relaxed vibes.
