Introducing Bali

Known as ‘the island of the gods’, Bali conquers you with its exotic beauty and beaches. It’s more than a tropical getaway for a well-deserved holiday – the island boasts a truly rich array of things to do. Between surf beaches, traditional villages, temples, street food and natural landscapes, there are activities for all tastes. Not to mention its lively nightlife, trekking on volcanoes and experiences of complete relaxation, including yoga and meditation. Whether you’re looking for adventure or a rejuvenating trip, Bali’s got it.

Top 6 Things to Do in Bali

1. Take a tour of the most beautiful temples in Bali

One of Bali’s main attractions is its temples, which are scattered throughout the island. Peaceful and tranquil, they’re often set in amazing landscapes. Built on a 70-metre clifftop overlooking the Indian Ocean, the Uluwatu temple from the 11th century. It’s one of Bali’s most famous temples for a reason. But make sure to keep your belongings close to you – the troop of monkeys that lives here is quite mischievous. Other sacred places worth visiting are the Tanah Lot Temple, which means ‘between land and sea’, and the Ulun Danu Temple on Lake Bratan.

2. Visit Bali’s paddy fields

Terraced, flat, with geometric designs and sparkling colours, Bali’s paddy fields are both varied and of great cultural and social importance. Visit the easily accessible rice terraces of Tegalalang and hike through green and enchanting landscapes. Learn how local rice products are made and visit villages where time seems to stand still. Other paddies worth visiting are those at Jatiluwih, in the heart of Bali – a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2012 – and at Belimbing, further away from the most-visited routes. For the best experience, visit the paddies early morning in the morning or late afternoon to enjoy cooler temperatures. The use of closed shoes is also recommended when hiking.

3. Live an adventure with an excursion to Mount Batur

A trek to Mount Batur is one of the most exciting excursions in Bali. It’s ideal for adventure seekers. This active volcano rises to 1,717 metres and is nestled between two concentric calderas. The route doesn’t present any difficulties and is well signposted, even if the climb can be tiring. But, once you get to the top, it’s a sight to behold. You’ll be able to enjoy a truly special panorama over the surrounding region. The perfect time to hike is before dawn. Leave at 4am, perhaps joining a guided tour, and arrive at the top just when the sun begins to peep into the sky.

4. Discover Denpasar, the capital of Bali

Visiting the chaotic capital of the island means completely immersing yourself in local culture. A good place to kick off your visit is the Bali Provincial Museum, where you can learn about the island’s history. Next, see the temples of Sakenan and Jagatnatha. Denpasar is also a great spot for exploring Bali’s culinary tradition and stocking up on tasty street food. Don't miss a trip to the Badung Market or the Pasar Kereneng Night Market. Finally, Denpasar is only 30km from Ubud, a much quieter town, but considered the cultural and spiritual centre of the region. Here, you can visit the famous Monkey Forest and numerous art museums.

5. Relax on Bali’s most beautiful beaches

After so much exploration, a bit of relaxation is called for. The island boasts some of Asia’s most beautiful beaches. It’s Nirvana for those who love water sports or who want to chill in unspoiled landscapes. The south coast is perfect for surfing, with beaches that have become places of worship. There’s Balangan beach, with its waves and sunsets, and Seminyak beach, which is famed for its nightlife. For snorkelling, the shallow waters of Mushroom Bay, on the island of Nusa Lembongan, are ideal. While Amed beach, in the northeast, offers black sand in the shadows of Agung volcano. Finally, the Blue Lagoon of Padangbai, on the east coast, has sugar-white sand and a secret cove with rich in marine fauna.

6. Join a yoga or meditation class

Bali exudes an atmosphere of great spirituality. Most of the population is Hindu and the presence of so many temples on the island gives it an even more mystical air. That’s why it’s a much-loved destination for those who love yoga and meditation. Even if you've never practised, join a yoga class, and enjoy a moment of regeneration for the body and soul. The perfect destination for retreats and workshops is Ubud, which offers a great variety of Ayurvedic therapies, massages and spiritual experiences.
