THINGS TO DO THIS EASTER 2023 IN BALI
1. Take your bunnies to the beach!
Nothing says Easter in Bali quite like a day on the beach. Settle in beneath a sun-lounger, order fresh coconuts and feast all day on fresh seafood. Our top tip? Head to a beach where Easter festivities are taking place, like Sundays Beach Club! This year, there’ll be a special Easter menu (cocktails included!) plus a live band, face painting for kids, sand carving, marshmallows at sundown and Easter Egg Sundaes too!
2. Splish and splash at Waterbom
Easter is the perfect time to make a splash at Waterbom, because with 3.8 hectares of action-packed rides, there’s something for everyone here – from the mellow Lazy River to Asia’s steepest slide, The Climax. Long weekend splashing in the sun, here we come!
3. Find goodies in Ubud
This Easter weekend, Bisma Eight will once again be putting on their annual ‘Easter Weekend Egg Hunt’, where lucky guests can find a hidden egg in their room with fabulous surprises inside. Think free stays, special dinners and more! The team at Copper Kitchen will also be serving a sumptuous rooftop Easter Feast to celebrate the weekend…
4. Have an egg-citing Japanese Easter
#SundayFunday doesn’t have to end at brunch! Hop your way to Sanur’s IZZY Izakaya Street, a whole street of Japanese nibbles and egg-citing activities for the kiddos. The fun starts at 5pm with an egg hunt for a chance to win a surprise gift from IZZY. Then, the little ones can channel their creativity with egg painting and decorating, before ending the day with Easter set menus for the kids, specially curated by the Chef no less! Think takoyaki, chicken ramen or chicken teriyaki bowl, soft serve ice cream and a refreshing iced tea to wash it all down with.
5. Spend the weekend in Bingin… poolside!
At Banana Lounge in Bingin, the Easter celebrations are taking place throughout the entire long weekend. On Good Friday, it’s all about seafood, with seafood platters, oysters and buckets of prawns served up beside poolside. Then on Easter Sunday, bring the kids for a family barbecue, egg hunts, badminton on the lawn and games at the children’s station. You’ll want to stick around until late, because the weekend will be finished off with a Sunday night roast with all the trimmings, featuring roast lamb, roast beef and roast pork with crackling – all the Easter must-haves!
6. Hunt for eggs
You can bet your Easter eggs that at almost every hotel in Bali that’s celebrating Easter 2023, you’ll find a chocolate-filled Easter egg hunt. And if you don’t feel like heading out after your big Easter brunch? Hide chocolates around your hotel or villa instead and leave clues on where to find them. And psst – this one’s not just for kids!
7. Get crafty
This one’s a must-do Easter activity. Whether you join an Easter workshop or you stock up on essential arts and craft supplies, get busy this Easter! The kids can paint Easter bunnies, decorate eggs, fold origami chicks and even make cute cards for friends and family. And as for Mum and Dad? Well, you may as well get stuck in too…
8. Make your own Easter cards
A fun activity for kids and a great way to avoid buying a card online, why not make your own Easter cards this year and send them to friends and family? You can paint, decorate and even glue glitter – whatever tickles your Easter bunny.
9. Get baking
Easter is the perfect excuse to scoff cakes, chocolates and cookies all day, so we say get baking and make some fresh-outta-the-oven cookies! It’s a win-win for the whole family, and everyone can get involved. Can’t be bothered to bake? Keep scrolling to check out the bakeries in Bali selling must-have Easter goodies…
