I would prefer somewhere not too touristy, yet close enough to Ubud and or the airport so as to make transportation easier and quicker. Thank you in advance for your help!
I really liked Pemuteran - snorkeling right off shore in town, and great snorkeling trips to the national park there. That said, it's a 4 hour drive from Ubud, and you definitely have to hire a driver.
