Planning a Bali trip and not sure where to start? I’ve got you covered.
Bali is without a doubt one of the world’s best travel destinations. It’s got sun-soaked beaches, lush rice terraces, incredible food, and all the adventures for every kind of traveller, which is why figuring out the best things to do in Bali can feel a little overwhelming. And if you’re here, that means you’re already considering a trip and wondering where to start. Well, you’ve come to the right place.
I’ve tried and tested it all to bring you the best things to do in Bali – let’s start!
Essential Bali Experiences for 2026
1. Immerse in Balinese traditions at Penglipuran Village
Travel back in time to Bali’s cleanest, most cultural village.
Bali’s cultural heart beats strong in its traditional villages, where ancient customs and a slower pace of life reign supreme. Penglipuran Village is your postcard-perfect cultural stop, famous for its pristine bamboo-lined streets and traditional Balinese homes. A stroll through the village feels like stepping back in time, with locals more than happy to share their way of life.
And if that’s not enough, Penglipuran was awarded the “Cleanest Village in Bali” title at the Kalpataru Lestari Appreciation Awards by the Indonesian Ministry of Environment on World Environment Day 2025.
Entrance fee: IDR 50,000 per adult, and IDR 30,000 per child.
Good to know: The best time to visit Penglipuran is during the holy days of Galungan and Kuningan. This is when the streets will be lined with meticulously crafted Balinese penjor. You can even rent a full traditional Balinese clothing (for around IDR 100,000), for an ethnic photoshoot.
Opening hours: Daily, 8am – 6.30pm
2. Hire a yacht and sail to Nusa Penida
Luxury boat tours with snorkelling, coral planting and ocean views.
One thing you simply can’t miss when in Bali is a trip to Nusa Penida. And one of the best ways to see it all (easily and comfortably) is with a one-day boat tour with Bluuu. This is Bali’s trusted (and most luxurious) boat operator on the island, and it really shows.
I recently joined their Premium Shared Tour to Nusa Penida, and I’d happily do it again tomorrow. The day was perfectly paced, from snorkelling with Manta Rays in the morning, to lunch with ocean views, and a prosecco toast at sunset to finish. The English-speaking crew are truly one of the most genuine and caring hospitality teams we’ve experienced.
But what makes Bluuu really special, is their heart for the ocean. They’ve built their own coral garden off the north coast of Nusa Penida, and I got to see it for myself. I even planted a few coral fragments, which turned a great day out into something truly meaningful.
Local tip: You’ll depart from Serangan Harbour, which is approximately a 40-minute drive from Bali’s international airport.
Good to know: Boat safety is Bluuu’s priority, and you’ll notice their professional care every step of the way.

3. Try local food at an Indonesian warung
Feast on authentic nasi goreng, satay and sambal at affordable prices.
A warung is a small locally-owned restaurant that typically serves traditional Indonesian and Balinese dishes. For just $2 you can feast on a mountain of delicious, authentic grub including nasi goreng, babi guling, beef rendang, tempe manis and so.much.more. To get you started, tuck into 7 of our fave must-try local dishes in Bali (we’ve even included the best warungs where you can find them!)
The Best Things To Do In Canggu
Canggu has become the number one destination on every Bali itinerary, especially if you’re here to party. This is Bali’s buzzing social hub full of great cafés, boutique shops and beach clubs that stay busy from sunset to well past midnight. It’s also where you’ll find the trendiest places (with the long queues to match!), and it’s very easy to spend an entire day here without even trying. But if you want to make the most of it, here are the things you can’t miss in Canggu:
1. Catch the sunset at Canggu’s coolest beach clubs
If there’s one thing Canggu nails, it’s the art of a long, lazy beach club day. Think daybeds, salty hair, and cocktails that somehow taste better with the sea breeze. Whether you’re here for a dip, a tan or an entire afternoon of people-watching, Canggu’s best beach clubs know exactly how to keep the vibes high! Here are my top three:
- La Brisa – Boho beach club vibes with castaway island decor and designs.
- COMO Beach Club – Luxurious Canggu escape with a refined dining experience, professional service and sophisticated island living.
- The Lawn – Canggu favourite for gourmet bites, cocktails, and a relaxed oceanfront sunset viewing.
2. Do a full Canggu café crawl (yes, it’s a sport here)
Canggu practically invented the “one more coffee” lifestyle. Start with a cold brew, move on to fluffy pancakes, then somehow end up ordering a second breakfast at another café 20 minutes later. You can get everything here, from the usual nasi campur, colourful smoothie bowls, to desserts so good they’re absolutely worth the long queues (which you will find a lot in Canggu). And amongst all of Canggu’s best cafés, these are my go-tos:
- The Avocado Factory – Bali’s first avocado café serving avo-packed brunch plates, bowls and desserts.
- Milk & Madu – Family-friendly Bali icon with legendary brunches, wood-fired pizzas and buzzing vibes.
- Nüde – Laid-back café with friendly vibes, hearty bowls, pancakes and vegan options.
3. Shop your way through Canggu’s cutest boutiques
Boutique shopping in Canggu is a whole personality trait. You’ll wander in “just to look” and walk out with linen sets, handmade jewellery and a new bag you swear you’ll use every day (guilty!). The boutiques here are full of cute, indie labels and island-style pieces you’ll want to pack home immediately. If you want to splurge a little, these are the best fashion stores in Canggu:
- Cin Cin – Luxury resortwear label serving bold European summer fashion with ethical production and maximalist flair.
- Cove Island Essentials – A chic island lifestyle store offering resort fashion, homewares, jewellery and artisanal decor.
- Kenny Parker – Unisex fashion label offering premium everyday essentials with a streetwear edge.
4. Feel the buzz of Canggu’s nightlife
Canggu after dark is a whole different mood. Bars fill up, music gets louder and suddenly you’re bar-hopping with a crowd that isn’t ready to call it a night. Whether you want live music, a casual drink or a full-on dance floor, Canggu has a spot for every kind of night owl. And if you’re wondering where to start, here are some of Canggu’s best bars to check out:
- Motel Mexicola – With its signature 1960s Acapulco retro style, this Mexican-inspired party pad dazzles with vibrant neon lights, colourful murals, and mouthwatering Mexican food.
- Deus Ex Machina – Hipster hotspot mixing live bands, motorcycles, art and craft cocktails.
- Old Man’s – Legendary beach bar famed for sundowners, Dirty Wednesdays and lively DJ sessions.

The Best Things To Do In Seminyak
Seminyak is Bali’s polished, stylish side aka the neighbourhood where beach cocktails, designer boutiques and photogenic cafés all sit close together. It’s known for its gorgeous sunsets, fashionable crowd and some of the island’s best restaurants. And even when I’m staying in a quieter part of Bali, I always find myself back in Seminyak. Here are some of my favourite things to do in the area:
1. Find a little calm by visiting Petitenget Temple
Petitenget Temple is the place I visit whenever I want a little break from Seminyak’s buzz. It is a sacred sea temple known for its tranquil ambiance amidst the bustling streets. Petitenget Temple is believed to be the guardian of Seminyak Beach, and an integral part of Bali’s series of sea temples that protect the island.
Entrance fee: IDR 50,000
Good to know: The place is small and can be quite busy during the day, so plan to go here early.
Address: Jalan Petitenget, Kerobokan Kelod, Kuta Utara
Opening hours: Open 24 hours, but tourists are generally only admitted from around 7am–6pm.
2. Reset and recharge at Seminyak’s best spas
If Seminyak had a love language, it would be spa days. This is where you go for long traditional massages, a glow-up facial or a full pamper session. Slip into a treatment room, switch off your brain and let the therapists work their magic with relaxing oils and steady, skilled hands. When it comes to a spa day in Seminyak, these are the places I always come back to:
- Bodyworks Spa Bali – A modern-day spa with timeless charm and buttery smooth service. (You have to try their Caviar Facial treatment)
- Spa Alila – This spa redefines luxury with its bespoke treatments using fresh, local ingredients, all set in a peaceful space.
- Glow Spa by Bali Mandira – One of the only spas in Seminyak with private, alfresco treatment rooms.
3. Shop the island look in Seminyak’s chic boutiques
Not second to Canggu, Seminyak is also a fashion lover’s playground. Linen sets, crocheted bags, woven sandals… everything you need to nail the island look. Wander along Jalan Kayu Aya or Petitenget and you’ll find some of the prettiest boutiques in Seminyak, filled with pieces that are far too easy to fall in love with. Here are my favourites:
- Uma & Leopold – Their pieces proudly showcase the brand’s unique handwork signature detail of kerawang, embroidery, hand beading, and leather weaving.
- Bali Boat Shed – Home to a fab range of maxi and cute little dresses, playsuits, tops, kaftans, swimwear, accessories and more.
- Bamboo Blonde – Here you’ll find a fresh mix of holiday staples, from party dresses to casual wear and everything fabulous in between

The Best Things To Do In Uluwatu
If you’re in Bali for the best luxury stay and beach life, Uluwatu is basically calling your name. It’s the island’s clifftop dream – think dramatic coastlines, rolling surf and sunsets that make you stop whatever you’re doing. It’s also my absolute favourite place to catch the golden hour (I’ll tell you where below, keep reading!). Breezy, scenic and a little more laid-back than its northern neighbours, Uluwatu is perfect for slow days with ocean views that seem to go on forever. Let’s dive right in!
1. Surf Uluwatu’s most famous breaks
Uluwatu is a surfer’s paradise, home to some of the most iconic waves in Bali. The surf here is consistent, powerful and often hits six to ten feet on a good day. Whether you’re watching from a cliffside café or paddling out yourself, the energy is unbeatable. Skilled surfers carve through barrels while the rest of us cheer from above with a cold drink in hand (equally satisfying, honestly).
2. Check out Garuda Wisnu Kencana (GWK) Cultural Park
Want to immerse in Bali’s rich culture, all in one destination? GWK Cultural Park is home to a diverse range of cultural activities; traditional Balinese dance, music performances, and the towering 121-metre statue of the Hindu God Vishnu. The park itself is a massive 60 hectares of space, perfect for a leisurely stroll. And before you know it, it’s time to catch the one and only Kecak Garuda Wisnu dance show.
Entrance fee: General admissions start from IDR 150,000.
Good to know: The Kecak show starts at 6pm and seating is open on a first-come basis, so it’s worth arriving early to grab a good spot.
Address: Jl Raya Uluwatu, Ungasan
Opening hours: Daily, 9am – 9pm
3. Watch a Kecak dance at Uluwatu Temple
A trip to Bali wouldn’t be complete without a trip to Pura Luhur Uluwatu, aka Uluwatu Temple. But one of the main highlights of visiting Uluwatu Temple is watching the Kecak dance, performed at sunset every evening. This traditional Balinese dance features a group of men chanting “cak, cak, cak” in unison around a fire, telling the story of the Ramayana. The dance takes place with the stunning sunset as the backdrop, starting at 6pm daily – it’s a must-see!
Entrance fee: Entry to Uluwatu Temple costs IDR 50,000 for adults and IDR 30,000 for kids, while the Kecak Dance ticket is sold separately at a price of IDR 15o,000 for adults and IDR 75,000 for children.
Good to know: It’s recommended to arrive early to secure your tickets, because they can sell out fast in peak seasons.
Address: Jl. Raya Uluwatu, Pecatu
Show time: From 6pm daily
4. Sunset at Karang Boma Cliff Viewpoint
If you want a sunset that feels almost unreal, Karang Boma is the spot. The cliff drops straight into the ocean below, and the view stretches endlessly across the coastline. Come just before golden hour, pick your spot on the grassy edge and soak in one of the most dramatic sunsets in Uluwatu. Local tip: Getting to this hidden gem on the cliff’s edge involves a short hike, so be sure to wear sturdy footwear and exercise caution near the edge, as there are no protective barriers.

The Best Things To Do In Ubud
Ubud is my go-to place whenever I need to escape the busy south. It’s just a short drive away, but the moment I reach the rice fields and smell the incense in the air, everything instantly feels slower and calmer. With jungle views, art markets, temples and hidden waterfalls, Ubud is where Bali’s peaceful, soulful side really shines. And if you’re planning a day or two here, these are the things you shouldn’t miss:
1. Scale Tegallalang rice terrace in Ubud
Bali has many working rice fields, and the Tegallalang Rice Terraces in Ubud are the most famous on the island thanks to their beautiful valleys of rice paddies that stretch for miles. In every direction it’s a sea of stair-like rice fields, dotted by hard-working farmers tending to their treasured crops. It can get busy here, so if you want to avoid the tourist crowds, head to Jatiluwih instead in the Tabanan Regency.
2. Get a selfie with a monkey at the Ubud Monkey Forest
Bali is home to several species of monkey, so it’s not uncommon to come face-to-face with them, especially in Ubud. If you want to get up close and personal with some very cheeky little macaques, visit the Sacred Monkey Forest in Ubud, just hold on to your belongings and be sure to snap a selfie (if you think you’re brave enough!).
Entrance fee: General admissions start from IDR 100,000.
Good to know: The monkeys are attracted to small objects such as toys, jewellery, beads, or anything that resembles peanuts, so avoid displaying them in the open.
Address: Jalan Monkey Forest, Padangtegal Ubud
Opening hours: Daily, 9am–6pm
3. Shop local goods at Ubud Art Market
Bali is great for shopping, whether it’s furniture, fashion, homewares, bikinis, shoes, food, bags, or even island-born skincare products – the list goes on! But, for affordable souvenirs and hand-made artisanal goods, you can find them all under one roof at Ubud Art Market. Want more? Check out Bali’s best traditional markets, where you can find more artsy keepsakes, old-school vintage clothes, and farm-fresh fruit and vegetables, too.
4. Learn Bali’s chain-weaving heritage at John Hardy
Sustainable jewellery workshops with artisans in bamboo boutiques.
If you’re into fine, handcrafted jewellery and unique architecture, you’ll want to visit the John Hardy Kapal Bamboo Boutique & Workshop at Mambal. Nestled amidst Bali’s lush greenery with a stunning structure made entirely of sustainable materials, here you can browse this iconic brand’s handmade, sustainable and artisanal pieces, including archival heritage collections that showcase Bali’s jewellery-making traditions.
Not only a dazzling boutique, you can witness more than 700 craftsmen and craftswomen designing, carving, shaping and hand-weaving John Hardy’s signature pieces. You can even join a jewellery masterclass and try chain-weaving for yourself, before taking home your very own John Hardy piece that you’ll treasure forever. Psst – they’ve recently made the masterclass available at John Hardy Seminyak Boutique & Gallery, too!
Price: Jewellery Masterclass in Mambal starts from IDR 4,000,000 per person.
Good to know: A booking two days in advance is required.
Where: Jl. Raya Mambal Br. Baturning No.1
5. Go back to nature at Bambu Indah
Bambu Indah is a sight to be seen. It’s a sustainable and eco-friendly Bali resort made entirely of natural materials – even the elevator is made of bamboo! The goods news is, if you’re not staying here, you can visit with a daypass and immerse in the jungly surrounds.
Ride the bamboo elevator down through the centre of the gorge and emerge to a horizon of greenery and natural pools. There are sundecks and cosy nooks, plus a riverside warung and plenty of wildlife. You can even buffalo in the river, meet the local Balinese black pigs, and finish off with lunch suspended over the rapids.
Price for the daypass: IDR 600,000 per person, including F&B credit
Good to know: Day pass visitors can enjoy Bambu Indah between 11am – 4pm daily, If you want to stay longer, we say, check-in and stay the night – it’s one of Bali’s best boutique hotels.
Address: Jl Baung, Sayan, Ubud

The Best Things To Do In Sanur
Sanur is where I go when I want an easy beach day without the crowds. The beaches are calm, the boardwalk is perfect for a morning stroll, and everything here just feels a little softer compared to the busier parts of Bali. There are plenty of cute local stalls to browse, and since living here, I’ve watched a few of Canggu’s favourite restaurants open new branches in Sanur too. But if you’re wondering what to do around the area, here are my top picks:
1. Catch sunrise on Sanur Beach
Sanur is one of the best places in Bali to wake up with the sun. The coastline faces east, giving you front-row seats to soft pink skies and golden light stretching across the water. The beach runs from Mertasari in the south to Padang Galak in the north, linked by a paved promenade that’s perfect for walking, cycling or even a little shopping run (my favourite kind of run!). It’s truly the best way to start your day.
2. Try Sanur’s best restaurants
Sanur’s food scene has been quietly levelling up. From local warungs and beachfront grills, to new openings from some of Bali’s most-loved restaurants, there’s always something good to eat. Whether you’re in the mood for fresh seafood, a long brunch or a casual dinner by the beach, Sanur is full of delicious little surprises. These are my absolute top three that I’ve visited multiple times:
- Byrd House Bali – Breezy pool club and restaurant with vibrant Mediterranean vibes in the north end of Sanur.
- Genius Cafe – The best vegetarian and vegan-friendly café in Sanur.
- Naga Eight Restaurant – An upscale Cantonese restaurant that combines Chinese and Balinese heritage in their menu.
Sanur may not be as glamorous as Canggu or Seminyak, but it’s got its own special charm. If you’re planning a visit, check out our full Sanur itinerary guide (written by a local who’s lived here for more than 20 years!)
The Best Things To Do In Kuta & Legian
If you’re thinking of Bali, you’ve probably heard of Kuta and Legian… and they’re still classics for a reason. I really love a simple beach day in this area, and though it’s changed a lot over the years, it still carries that nostalgic, easy-going holiday energy we all know. It’s also one of the most budget-friendly parts of Bali (so yay, budget travellers!). If you’re planning to explore Kuta and Legian, here are the best things to check out:
1. Shop (and snack) your way through Kuta’s best malls
Kuta and Legian are home to two of Bali’s most iconic malls, Beachwalk Shopping Center and Discovery Mall Bali, both perfect for when you want AC, coffee, fashion and food all in one place.
Beachwalk is the breezy, modern, open-air one where you can hop between, boutiques, shops, movie theatres and it’s even got sunset terraces just to hang around. Discovery Mall, on the other hand, has a newly refreshed look and sits right by the beach. Here’s a fun bonus: they host free cultural and dance performances on the beachside deck. Just check their Instagram for the schedule, grab a drink and enjoy the show with the ocean right behind you.
Good to know: All the performances at Discovery Mall are free to watch, but if you want the best view, you can pay a small fee to reserve front-row seats!
Address: Jl. Pantai Kuta (Beachwalk Shopping Centre) & Jl. Kartika Plaza, Kuta (Discovery Mall Bali)
Opening Hours: Both open daily, 10am – 10pm
2. Learn to surf at Bali’s most beginner-friendly beaches
If you’ve always wanted to try surfing, Kuta and Legian are hands-down the best places to start. Kuta Beach and Legian Beach are extremely beginner-friendly, the waves here are gentle but consistent, the sand is soft, and there are surf schools lined all along the shore ready to get you standing in no time. Coming from another beginner, this area makes surfing feel fun, approachable and zero-pressure!
Good to know: Walk-in surfing lessons are easy to arrange if you don’t mind a little negotiating. However, if bargaining isn’t your thing, it’s better to book ahead so you can lock in a fair price without the hassle.
Lesson fees: IDR 150.000-300.000 for group sessions & IDR 250.000-500.000 for private lessons
3. Splish and splash at Waterbom water park
Asia’s best waterpark with thrilling slides and lazy rivers.
If you want a change of scenery from the beach or jungle, head to Waterbom for a day of heart pumping sploshing and splashing! Voted Asia’s best waterpark over and over, a day here is top notch for families, kids, and adults too! It has all sorts of rides, from kid-friendly splash pools to tandem race slides, and even the dizzyingly high Climax that drops you through a vertical trap door – not for the faint hearted! I’d spend the day here diving face-first down the Twin Racers, rocketing our way down the Boomerang, spiralling through the Pipeline, all before slowing the pace to wind our way through the park’s tropical gardens on the Lazy River.
Entrance fee: Day passes start from IDR 595,000 per adult, and IDR 495,000 per child.
Good to know: Sustainability is at its heart, so Waterbom applies close-loop water system, and waste recycling and upcycling strategies.
Address: Jl Kartika Plaza, Kuta
Opening hours: Daily, 9am – 6pm
Even More Things To Do In Bali
1. Spot wild deer on Menjangan Island
Snorkel coral reefs and see wild deer in Bali Barat National Park.
Get away from the hustle and bustle of South Bali and head up north to the West Bali National Park. Here you’ll be able to take a trip to the nearby Menjangan Island (AKA Deer Island) which has excellent snorkelling, and is home to black monkeys and even gorgeous wild deer.
2. Walk amongst the Marigold fields of Desa Temukus
Golden flower fields grown for Hindu offerings in East Bali.
One of Bali’s most colourful horizons can be found within the Marigold fields of Desa Temukus, a remote village in East Bali. The fields grow Marigolds in abundance before being used in Hindu offerings to the Gods. The best time to visit a Marigold field is prior to a harvest, AKA a couple of weeks before a big Balinese ceremony. Ask the locals if you’re not sure, as the dates change year-by-year.
3. Discover Bali’s off-the-beaten-path neighbourhoods
Escape to Sidemen, Pemuteran and Bali’s hidden cultural gems.
South Bali is where you’ll find the island’s most vibrant neighbourhoods, but if you’re after traditional villages and beautiful natural backdrops, then you’ll want to venture elsewhere to Bali’s off-the-beaten path regions. I love Pemuteran in north-west Bali with its calm bays and majestic mountain tops. Or head east to the highlands of Sidemen for lush valley, jungle and volcano views.
5. Get down and dirty with friendly elephants
Feed, bathe and play with elephants at Bali Zoo.
If your idea of an awesome vacay is getting up close with animals, you’ll want to make a stop at Bali Zoo – the first zoological park on the island. It’s home to more than 500 rare animals, including endangered species such as the Komodo Dragon, Sumatran Tiger, Orangutan and Bali Starling. You’ll also meet free-roaming deer (you can hand-feed them!), families of lemurs, and even muddy elephants who’ll invite you in for a bath with the hands-on “Elephant Mud Fun” experience! Walk with them down to the nearby River Wos, where you’ll splash, bathe and scrub your elephant friend. You’ll also get to play, feed and take photos with them (covered in mud!), all before showering off in time for lunch.
Entrance fee: General admissions start from IDR 395,000 per adult, and IDR 200,000 per child.
Good to know: If you’re coming for a signature experience, take note of when the session starts and ends.
Address: Jl Raya Singapadu, Gianyar
Opening hours: Daily, 9am – 5pm
If there’s one thing I’ve learned from exploring Bali inside out, it’s that no two days ever feel the same. You can go from sunrise in Sanur to beach clubs in Canggu, temple hopping in the east, and a clifftop sunset in Uluwatu, all in a single trip. So, whatever brings you to the island, I hope this guide helps you experience the Bali I’ve grown to love.
