Candidasa and its people follow a conventional life style of weaving baskets, fishing, farming, rice cultivation, producing textiles or salt. As a rule of thumb always attempt to secure a centrally located hotel such as Alila Manggis that offers easy access to other attractions in the town as well.
Traditional Cruise Experience
Another must-experience activity for adventurists and roamers alike a traditional boat safari along the waters off the coast of Candidasa can be one of the most rewarding and eye opening activities available to visitors.
