Bali is a must-visit, at least once in your life. The island is unique in all the world, with its own culture, traditions, religion and Balinese people. It also goes without saying that Bali is one of the most beautiful holiday destinations with breathtaking nature that is so varied and unique to each district and area. It’s also family-friendly and great for travelers of all ages including solo travelers, sun-seekers, thrill-seekers and group excursions.

Many people don’t know this, but Bali is a large island – it could take weeks, if not months to truly discover what the island has to offer. You could take your time to explore the island, including the south, the center, north, east and west, not to mention the sister islands, Nusa Lembongan, Ceningan and Penida. Here are some exciting things to do while you’re here in Bali:

Beautiful Beaches

Bali’s beaches offer unique attractions that are all so different. If you want a “castaway” experience, head to Green Bowl Beach and Padang-Padang in Pecatu, an area much loved by surfers for its challenging waves. For something trendy, head to Seminyak Beach or Echo Beach in Canggu. Petitenget Beach is great for quiet sunsets and calming walks without any distracting beach shacks and loud music. Nusa Dua Beach and Sanur Beach are perfect for families thanks to their calm and shallow waters. For a good seafood meal with a view, head to Jimbaran Beach.

Incredible Parties & Nightlife

You’ll never run out of a trendy beach club or a cocktail bar while you’re in Bali. There are beach clubs, day clubs, night clubs, bars, speakeasies and lifestyle centers like the brand-new Atlas in Canggu. The food in these venues is outstanding, with incredible cocktails, ice-cold beer and a plethora of drinks to choose from. Of course, the music in these venues is world-class, so get ready to groove to killer tunes by world-renowned international DJs and artists.

Ancient Temples

On your holiday, take the opportunity to visit some of the more popular Balinese temples. Pura Lempuyang, Pura Tanah Lot, Pura Saraswati, Pura Luhur Besakih and Pura Ulun Danu Beratan are just some of the more popular temples that are also amazing Instagram spots with breathtaking backdrops that will blow up your feed. Don’t forget to add Pura Luhur Uluwatu to your list, for magical cliff-top views and an out-of-this-world kecak performance at sunset!

Bali is also great for shopping, dining, spa sessions and for snorkeling and diving. Those who love trekking and hiking can go mountain climbing or cycle through villages and rice fields. Thrill-seekers can go ATV racing, white-water rafting and zip-lining.

To do all of this and more, why not make the island your home away from home? You could rent a beautiful tropical villa monthly and make that your base while you explore. The first thing you need to do is pick a location.

Places in South Bali that are popular with tourists include Seminyak, Kuta, Legian, Canggu, Sanur, Jimbaran and Uluwatu. You could also get out into the countryside and head to Ubud, Lovina, Amed or Candidasa if you so wish.
