As far as thing for the kids go I have found the Canggu club have ballet and now gymnastics and I've heard that the Canggu Community School is very good so think we will send our girls there. We have been in Canggu off and on for the past 5 yrs now.
I was wanting to start up a coffee group for mum's in the area were we can all meet up once a week,
I think it would be really nice to have a good network of mum's and for the kids to make friends, It is always nice to know other mum's with little ones around the same age and chat about things with us all being away from our friends and family back home it is nice to has some support over here. I'm in New Zealand at the moment but back in September.

Hi Kel,

thanks for that info.
I first was in bali in 1999.

We are looking to buy some land in the area.
Like the area and hope to be within sight of the ocean.

I guess being away from it all has it's advantages, peace and quiet. But yes, need some supermarkets etc nearby.

How do you find the roads and travel in and around Canguu?

The main road in Canggu is fine but we don't go on the road's between the hrs of 4 - 6pm if we can help it. The roads are way to busy and it's hard enough keeping kids entertained in the car without being stuck in a traffic jam for hrs and having them in the back seat screaming.

Hello -

My wife and I currently live in China and are considering to move to Canggu in early 2011. We have a 2 year old and a 2 month old. I was wondering if you could give me some insight on what it is like to live in Canggu and in Bali in general? I will be traveling throughout Asia during our stay with my wife home with the kids. Is Cenggu a good place for a family with small children?

Many thanks for any insight you could provide!

How are you finding living in Canguu?
Have you been there long?

We will be there in Sept.

We love living in Canggu it is very quite yet not to far away from Seminyak. The beaches are not the best for the kids but we take them swimming on days when the swell is not too big. We have been living in Canggu for about 5 years now.
