Full Description
One of Pererenan's quiet advantages is how quickly the landscape shifts, a few minutes inland from the beach, the road gives way to open rice paddies with walking paths running between them. The route is free and open to the public, with no ticket or guide needed.
Early morning and late afternoon are the best times, both for cooler temperatures and for the light across the fields. The paddies change colour through the growing cycle, from bright green to golden before harvest, and birds and other wildlife are common along the paths.
