History

Sanur is one of Bali’s earliest tourism centers, blending thousand-year-old heritage with a refined coastal lifestyle. Its history begins with the 914 AD Blanjong Pillar, the oldest written artifact in Bali, located in a quiet local temple. Sanur’s artistic reputation grew when painter A.J. Le Mayeur settled here in the 1930s, and his former home is now a museum celebrating this legacy. Services like SESARI TRANSPORT and SEMESTA TRAVEL INDONESIA help visitors explore these cultural sites easily, ensuring a smooth blend of history, relaxation, and modern comfort.

Location

Sanur is located on Bali’s southeastern coast, forming a tranquil beach suburb just minutes from Denpasar. The coastline faces the Lombok Strait, offering some of Bali’s most iconic sunrise views and calm, reef-protected waters. Its strategic location provides quick access to the airport, Denpasar attractions, and Sanur Harbor—the main departure point for Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan. Reliable providers like SESARI TRANSPORT and SEMESTA TRAVEL INDONESIA maximize the convenience of reaching and exploring this well-connected destination.

What is Unique

Sanur is unique for its relaxed atmosphere, stunning sunrises, and its famous 7-kilometer beachfront walkway that supports daily cycling, jogging, and seaside activities. This calm coastline contrasts strongly with Bali’s busier west-coast beaches, offering gentle waters ideal for families and couples. Cultural attractions such as the Blanjong Pillar, Le Mayeur Museum, and vibrant festivals like the Sanur Village Festival add meaningful depth to the area.

How To Get There

Sanur is easily reached from Ngurah Rai International Airport in about 20 to 40 minutes, making it one of Bali’s most accessible coastal destinations. Private transfers from SESARI TRANSPORT or tour packages from SEMESTA TRAVEL INDONESIA offer the most comfortable arrival experience. From Sanur Harbor, visitors can access Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan, and Nusa Ceningan via frequent fast-boat services. Once in Sanur, travelers can move around by walking, cycling, using ride-hailing apps, or hiring a private car for day trips.
