What to Do – Kuta and Seminyak

For aromatherapy (massage with essential oils)., scrub treatments , and energising reflexology (healing foot massage), try Escape on Jl. Seminyak, opposite café Moka. They also sell massage oils and spa products. A newer outlet, Jari Menari (“dancing fingers”), also on Jl. Seminyak, offers professional massages performed by a amazingly well – trained team of masseurs. Their offerings include a unique four – hand relaxation session performed by two practitioners working in harmony. Shopping for Fun and Souvenirs Kuta, Legian, and Seminyak are a paradise for shoppers. Cheap souvenirs can be found in the stre­et markets, where most of the profits go to local vendors.

Clothes are on offer all around, with a strong bias toward surf gear and hippie wear. Great silver jewellery is another specialty of Bali . You can find it in posh shops or in little displays opened under your eyes at any minute by any of the countless street vendors selling rings, sunglasses and fake watches. Handicrafts, home decor, and furniture are especially good in the shops of Seminyak and Kerobokan. If you stay long enough, you can even get items made precisely to your design and measurements.

You can even get your order of a table and chairs shipped to your home. Be aware that most of the wood furniture is made of teak which comes from the over-harveste­d, illegally logged teak forests of Java and Vietnam . As much as possible, purchase items made of fibre, coconut, and bamboo, which are beautiful and made of readily available materials that don't deplete natural forests. Avoid purchasing items made of tortoise or seashells.

For organic products, check out the Sunrise Organic Market in Kerobokan. You can get fresh fruits and vegetables, but also great gift ideas – from organic coffee to herbal teas, sea salts, and even body care products, including neem – oil products from pet shampoo to healthy massa ge oils. Ask for the schedule of Yoga classes.
