Hotels in Karangasem, Indonesia

Karangasem is a regency in eastern Bali, Indonesia, with a tropical climate that stays warm year-round (around 77-86°F / 25-30°C). It's famous for the Tirta Gangga water palace, built by the last king of Karangasem in 1948, and the traditional Bali Aga village of Tenganan, which still follows pre-Hindu customs. During the dry season from April to October, you can hike Mount Agung (Bali's tallest volcano) for sunrise views over the Lombok Strait, while the wet season from November to March brings lush green rice terraces at Budakeling and empty black-sand beaches at Amed for affordable snorkeling with sea turtles.
