- Surf the main reef break at the island's primary lineup, where consistent right-handers peel off in clean, organized walls. The wave quality and lack of crowds make it the centerpiece of any visit.
- Explore secondary breaks scattered around the island's coastline by renting a motorbike or hiring a local guide. Each break has its own character and fewer surfers than the main peak.
- Snorkel or freedive in the shallow reefs near the beach, where coral and tropical fish are accessible without a boat. Visibility is best during the dry season.
- Eat fresh fish grilled over charcoal at beachside warungs, where the catch of the day costs a few dollars and tastes like the ocean itself.
- Watch the sunset from the beach while the light turns the water gold and the day's swell fades into evening calm.
