The word “Lovina” in tourist dictionary is not just refers to Lovina beach area but also a whole line of six small villages and palm-fringed beaches. From east to west it includes: Pemaron, Tukadmungga, Anturan, Kalibukbuk, Kaliasem, and Temukus. The strip starts at about six km west of Singaraja to about five km past of Kaliasem. Kalibukbuk has the highest concentration of restaurants and accommodations while the fishing villages of Anturan and Temukus are less densely packed and thus quieter. The name “Lovina” a relatively new name coined in the 1950s by a Buleleng prince and author with a good eye for future tourism-based development.

Lovina is a stretch of coast that is fringed by quite narrow black sand beaches which are accessed by a multitude of small lanes which run perpendicular to the east-west coast road. The beaches are generally safe for swimming and the waters of Bali’s north coast, in direct contrast to the crashing surf of the south, are relatively calm.

Diving, snorkeling and dolphin watching are the main activities. Beautiful sunset can be enjoyed simply while walking on the beach. Visitor can also find good trekking paths, temples, and hot sulphur pools in the hills but perhaps above all else, this is an area in which to relax and take in a very slow, traditional pace of life. It can get a little crowded in July and August but outside that peak season, this is a quiet part of the island.
