In 2017, Bali was one of TripAdvisor’s best islands as one of the best islands in the world. Tourists and travel enthusiasts often call it as The Island of the Gods. It covers the island of Bali itself as well as its island neighbors. These smaller islands are Nusa Penida, Nusa Lembongan,and Nusa Ceningan. But if we talk about the island of Bali alone, Bali has a small area. Its area is about 5780 square kilometers. If you measure its length from east to west, it is around 153km. From north to south, it measures approximately 112km. If you find it a bit harder to imagine its size, imagine this. The island of Bali is almost the size of two Rhode Island states. Or here’s another example. Consider the state of New York. Divide that by 24. One part should be the size of Bali. That’s how big (or small) the island is. Bali is small, yes. But the island always makes up for the culture, its food, and its people.
