Things to do in Bali
Pump up the adrenalin
You might think of beaches when you think of Bali, but it’s also a top destination for adventure tours. Lasting around a week, these small group tours take you away from tourist-clogged resorts to inland villages, mountains, hot springs, and peaceful beaches, with plenty of hiking, biking and snorkelling on the agenda. And some are designed for families, too.Cycling is another excellent way to get to know the country, getting you onto quiet country roads and through out-of-the-way traditional villages. You could either opt for a tour that includes cycling as one of several adventurous activities, or go for a dedicated cycling tour, exploring the island on two wheels. Cycling tours generally start in Ubud and continue through Bali’s central highlands past towering hills and glistening rice terraces. You’ll likely take in some coastline, too, perusing the laid-back fishing villages, volcanic sandy beaches and the calm waters of the less visited northern coastal regions, as well as the more popular beaches and temples of the south coast. You’ll need to be fit, though, as there are some steep climbs and distances reach up to 60km a day. Luckily our dedicated cycling trips are all undertaken in a small group, so you’ll have up to 12 like-minded travellers with whom to share the adventures, as well as the aches and pains.
Discover Bali’s spiritual side
Ubud’s position as a spiritual, cultural and artistic centre is played up to the hilt by travel guides and tourist boards, but luckily for visitors there’s more than a grain of truth to those depictions. Set amongst the lush greenery of forest and rice terraces, Ubud has been attracting pilgrims for centuries; and where they once arrived to imbibe holy water and bathe in hot springs, these days they come to create art and music, visit holistic healing centres, take yoga classes and sit alongside digital nomads in the town’s many (organic) cafes.While tourists may dominate, there’s still much authenticity to be found here, if you stay away from the tourist traps and take time to wander the backstreets, where shrines and temples are found and life continues as it has done for centuries. Away from Ubud, it’s worth checking out Pura Ulun Danu Bratan, a gorgeous Hindu-Buddhist temple set some 1,200m above sea level on an island in Lake Beratan.
Hit the beach
Bali's south coast has been attracting surfers and beach bums for decades, and the southwest coast of the Bukit Peninsula, has some of the island's top beaches and best waves. Although several of Bali's best beaches have succumbed to mass tourism there are still plenty of quiet, safe, sandy spots both to the north and the south of Kuta, including Sanur and Candidasa, so you do have the chance to chill out in peace even if you stick to the south of the island.On the north coast, around Lovina and Pemuteran, things are a lot quieter with gentle waves, perfect for snorkelling (Lovina is also famous for the dolphins that patrol its coast). Menjangan Island, within Bali Barat National Park, boasts some exceptional coral, just offshore. East coast Bali, around Amed, also has some sublime sands, making it ideal for exploring off the beaten beach track before heading out to the tiny Gili Islands where more powdery sand and coral-filled waters await.
