The name Lovina isn’t actually traditional Balinese—it was created in the 1950s by a local regent who wanted to encourage tourism in the area. The name combines the words “Love” and “Ina”, which is said to mean “Mother” in Balinese, symbolizing love for the motherland. Today, Lovina is still a more peaceful and lesser-known destination compared to the south, offering visitors a glimpse into Bali’s quieter coastal life, where dolphins swim freely at sunrise and rice fields meet the sea.
