Canggu

It serves as the perfect backdrop for bringing all these different groups of people together. 

Canggu one of those places that, at first glance, seems too good to be true, especially if visiting a hip and trendy beach town is your idea of the perfect surf getaway. From Berawa and Batu Balong to Echo Beach and Old Man’s, you’ve definitely got options for ripping and shredding.
