Canggu Bali is the most hit tourist area in Bali today. Previously, this area was a rural area with green rice fields and black sand beaches on the south bank as a place for fishing boats to rest. Now, this area has developed into a tourist spot with the establishment of a world-class beach club and hotels, and private villas. The Canggu area is identical to its exotic beaches, blessed with spectacular sunset views. The beaches along Canggu have good waves for both beginners and professionals to surf. Thus, this area continues to grow with increasing international tourist arrivals.
Bali tourism slumped during the Covid-19 pandemic when many hotels, restaurants, bars, and tourist attractions were closed. Tourists stopped visiting this paradise island because the Indonesian government closed international borders. However, foreign tourists who do not return to their home countries remain in Bali. The Canggu area is the only area in Bali where they live. Meanwhile, other regions in Bali, such as Nusa Dua, Kuta, Seminyak, Sanur, Ubud, and others, are quiet from tourism activities. Hotels, restaurants, and bars outside Canggu are closing and repatriating their employees.
