THINGS TO DO THIS EASTER 2022 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 Karma Beach in Uluwatu, Azul Beach Club in Legian, or Batu Bolong Beach in Canggu.
2. Spend the long weekend at Desa Potato Head
For an entire weekend filled with festivities, check into Desa Potato Head for an action-packed Easter itinerary. To kick things off, join the Morning Energy Activation & Meditation on the rooftop, or try the Sistrum Sound Healing at The Sanctuary. Make things with your own hands at Sweet Potato Lab, and take your lil bunnies to Sweet Potato Kids for traditional Easter activities like egg painting and toy making. All of this before a nine-course family-style tasting menu at Tanaman…
3. Splish and splash at Waterbom!
Easter is the perfect time to make a splash at Waterbom, because from April onwards, everyone’s favourite water park is back open every day of the week! Long weekend splashing in the sun, here we come!
4. Party in the pool at Mrs Sippy
Reopening just in time for Easter, it’s a double Easter whammy at Mrs Sippy. Expect a sun-soaked pool party, pumping tunes and poolside Mimosas. Mark your calendars, tell your mates, book your flights and get ready for this very long weekend indeed!
5. Find goodies at Bisma Eight
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…
6. Hunt for eggs
You can bet your Easter eggs that at almost every hotel in Bali that’s celebrating Easter 2022, you’ll find a chocolate-filled Easter egg hunt. And if you don’t feel like heading out after your big Easter breakfast? 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 household, and everyone can get involved. Can’t be bothered to bake? Check out these bakeries below for all of your Easter goodies…
