Agree with Moreno. Well worth a visit but would not stay there longer than a day or so. Some good hotel restaurants at eastern side of the bus station(?). Can sit and watch fishing boats and ferries. Main beach is probably very polluted with all the sea boats (including cruise liners) that abound but there is a smaller beach west of town, over the headland that is worth a visit.
I believe less than 2 hours from Sanur now that the roads have been upgraded, but can't confirm that.
Again good for a day trip or one night stopover.
