Leyeh Leyeh Desa Hot Spring

Leyeh Leyeh Desa Hot Spring is a natural geothermal facility in the Singaraja area of northern Bali, the former Dutch colonial capital of the island and the center of the distinctive North Bali culture that differs subtly from the better-known Ubud and South Bali traditions, with its own temple styles, dance forms, and the famous Bali Arts Center that preserves the island's rich tradition of Topeng masked dance, Gambuh court drama, and the exquisite Peliatan style of Legong dance. The Lovina Beach area near Singaraja is celebrated for its daily sunrise dolphin-watching boat trips where pods of spinner and bottlenose dolphins regularly perform in the calm dark waters of the Bali Strait just offshore, and the black sand beaches of the north coast, sheltered from the heavy surf of southern Bali, provide calmer swimming and snorkeling conditions over coral reef systems of considerable marine biodiversity. The sodium-bicarbonate thermal spring waters of Leyeh Leyeh Desa flow from the volcanic geology of the Singaraja highlands in a natural outdoor setting of tropical vegetation and mountain backdrop, offering relaxed and genuinely natural hot spring bathing in the authentic Balinese countryside far from the tourist infrastructure of southern Bali.
