out of your hotel or accomodation on Nyepi day. No lights on in the evening and you must be quiet so that the evil spirits will pass over the island in the belief that no-one inhabits the island.
Security from each banjar patrols their area so that no tourists go wandering...you may end up arrested if you do.
No flights go in or out of bali on Nyepi, but on Nyepi eve if you are lucky you can watch the parades put on. They are a spectacular sight.
cheers
