Things To Do in Bali

There are plenty of things to do in Bali. You could say it was made for adventure and exploration, with its cascading waterfalls, towering mountain peaks, plunging gorges, deep jungles, astonishing reefs, and mysterious shipwrecks.

Intrepid adventurers will love the abundance of thrilling outdoor activities to be experienced throughout the island, from mountain trekking and volcano climbing to white-water rafting, mountain biking, and even elephant riding. Explore the conservation park sprawling over the western tip of the island or the Bali Botanical Gardens in Bedugul. The ultimate trekking experience is a sunrise hike to the summit of sacred Mount Agung, highest peak on Bali. Waterfall viewing is a must, and the Gitgit and Blahmantung Falls are two of the best.

On the coast, the surfing is spectacular, with breaks for newbies and experts alike; kite-surfing is also very popular. Bali is renowned for its amazing scuba diving sites, with reef, wreck, and drift diving available, and plenty of PADI courses for novices. Dive Amed will bring you out to the wonderland of the Jemeluk coral reef, while experts will love the challenging Nusa Penida tour. The more timid may prefer view the underwater wonderland of the South Seas through the portholes on Bali Safari’s little submarines.
