The 24 Best Things to Do in Bali

"Tukad Cepung, located in East Bali, is one of the island’s most photogenic falls, a small site leaving a major impression on travelers willing to scale the numerous steps and crossings to see it. While there are prettier, larger, and less touristy waterfalls up in northern Bali, Tukad Cepung is one of the closest to Ubud and the popular beach towns. Everyone’s come for the plunging attraction they’ve likely seen on social media: a trickling, wide-bodied curtain of water inside a dark circular canyon wall. The waterfall is at its most magical in the morning and midday hours, as sun rays illuminate the scene creating prisms of light. Tukad Cepung’s main draw is the natural light show which occurs in the earlier portion of the day. Arrive mid- to late morning for less crowded encounters, as snap-happy tourists start to flood the area by noon." - Travis Levius
