I’m preparing a trip to Indonesia – hoping to go in a couple of months – so that’s awesome. We’ll definitely snorkel and dive! Thanks for the tips!
woow fantastic beautiful motion capturing
Great suggestions! Bali is still in my bucket list but to be honest, I was more focused on visiting the temples. Glad that there are plenty of beach activities we could possibly to do in between all of the temple visits. Love the Bamboo Bar–definitely have to visit!
The beach is my favorite place to be! I always enjoy reading on the beach and when I want to be a little more active, I enjoy snorkeling and seeing all the colorful fish. Wish I was on a tropical beach today!
I can’t wait for summer. We get a beach pass every year, so we will be at the beach all summer long 🙂
Wow so many beach activities that could keep you entertained for weeks! I haven’t tried the Rolling Donut or Banana but I would definitely be up for it. Kite Surfing looks awesome but I heard it can be tough to learn.
Never understood how some people just go to the beach and lay there. We love to get up and do different fun activities. All of these look awesome.
I’ve always wanted to go to Bali. It’s so lovely there! One day I’ll go and relax on the beach.
This is most definitely a place I want to go to. Bali is very high on my list of international places to explore. I am such a beach person and they have beautiful beaches there. It looks like there’s a lot to do there also.
I have never been surfing but it is one of the activities I would love to do in the near future. Visiting Bali would be a dream. I think the whole family would love the trip.
I absolutely love the beach. Me and my family go there every summer and those pictures are great.
I’m going to SNUBA for the first time on my upcoming vacation to Cozumel. I am so excited. I love parasailing, scuba diving and so many of the activities you mentioned but SNUBA is new to me.
I have always wanted to go parasailing. It looks like a real blast!
I used to be more adventurous in the waters, but the older I get the more terrified I become 🙁 Which really sucks cuz it looks so fun! I will have to stick to the fun bars like the Bamboo bar. It looks so airy and relaxing. Huge plus that it’s eco-friendly !
Living in Northern Colorado, I really could use the sun and sand right now. This looks like an absolute blast. I can’t wait for summer!
What some absolutely fantastic ideas, I would have loved to have tried them all once upon a time, these days I’d probably stick to the beach and if I was feeling really good a little snorkling.
All of it sounds amazing! I am sitting in Wisconsin in the middle of winter and this all seems magical! We love to be adventuress when going on vacation, so much of this sounds like a ton of fun.
These are all awesome activities to try in Bali. I love the views of the beach but I’m not really a huge fan of the water. I tried parasailing once and thought it’s a great experience.
Wow!! Wonderful clicks.. I love the all views of beach. Really I want to feel these awesome views asap.
Bali always sounds for me as the definition of paradise! Hope to be able to try some of your recommended activities soon!
I am so over winter and so I am loving these beach pics! I would love to travel to Bali one day!!
Looks like an amazing trip! Thank you for sharing this; you have given me the foundation for planing my trip.
I Would love to hear more details about where you stayed and the tour guides you used.
Bali looks incredible! I would do ALL of these! I am intrigued by the kite surfing. How fun would that be???
I haven’t experience snorkeling so I would love to experience that. The donut rid would be fun too.
Bali is in our travel bucket list. We haven’t traveled to any Asian country yet, but if we would get the chance, I’d love to have Bali on the top of the list.
When I visited Bali last year we did some of these beach activities and it was truly fun, I am missing it already and can not wait to go back.
I love the looks of Bamboo Bar- swings, cocktails and a beach view? Sign me up!
The bamboo bar looks like the perfect place to relax after seeing all the pretty fishes and corals when snorkelling! The activities look like so much fun!
The donuts are so much fun, we loved them. One of our favourite things to do in Bali is relax on the beach and snorkel, the water us so clear and warm it’s a dream.
I still regret skipping Bali during our last trip to Indobesia. And now you gave me even more reasons to want to get there. I would love to try some snorkeling and some kite surfing as well 🙂
OMG surfing in Bali is so fun!!! I was only in Bali for five days not enough time :/ That bamboo bar looks so fun I will have to check it out next time I’m in Bali!
With so many islands Indonesia is an ideal beach destination. Indeed these beach activities make holidays more memorable. I am yet to try doing some these, just need some more courage to attempt them. 🙂
I’ve been to Bali. I didn’t even hit the beach then, much less all the other activities. I was attending a conference. Besides, I can’t swim…deathly afraid. So I will just take the ambiance.
This is a great list of beach activities for Bali. We loved the sunsets and long sand beach on Jimbaran Bay. Watching the surfers at Canggu was so much fun. I was sick when we visited Bali and was so disappointed we couldn’t scuba dive or snorkel. Means we need to go back!
Snorkeling would, without a doubt, top our list. Paddling and hiking are also adventures we seek to do anywhere we travel where there is beach and water … banana boat? NOT so much. 😉 Great post.
I’ve been to Indonesia twice, and both times, to my regret had to return without visiting Bali. Bali has been on my bucket list for the longest time now and you have just given me a bunch of ideas on what to do when I finally make my way there.
These are some really amazing beach activities that you’ve listed for Bali. However, there’s one more that I would like to suggest you add to this list – it is one which is not very popular but looks amazing and I really wanted to experience it while I was in Bali but never got the chance to. It is the Underwater Scooter. The tour to submerged Buddhist Temple in Bali with an underwater scooter looks like an amazing activity to try it. And you don’t even need to train for it!
I would love to go to that Bamboo Bar. I have been to Bali before but never did the beach scene. It looks great.
I am torn between the banana boat ride and quietly sipping a cocktail from a beachfront patio. I would probably do both. Though I imagine I would need a shower after the banana boat ride:)
I almost went to Bali this year but had to cancel. The adventure enthusiast that I am I think it is tailor made for me. I didn’t know you can try so many adventure sports here. The bamboo bar looks amazing. Who would not love to ‘hang out’ on those swings?
I don’t think I’ve ever thought about what to do on Bali beaches other than to sit on the beach, snorkel or do a couple of watersports, but there seem to be a lot more options for watersports than I ever imagined. High energy, high adrenalin, I think! And of course, having a great bar to retreat to is always very welcome!
So many things to do on the beach, you didn’t mention read a book though, I love kicking pack and turning pages. Snorkelling is a close second though…
Those are some great recommendations! I wanted to try surfing when I visited Bali. However, I wasn’t sure if it’s a good idea as I don’t know swimming.
My favorite Bali beach activity to get a massage laying right there and letting the therapist come to you. It’s not expensive either.
This list of beach activities in Bali is pretty amazing. I’ve already tried parasailing, and I would love to try the rolling donut. I’ve also tried the flying fish, which I totally recommend adding it to your list.
Quite an extensive list of activities in Bali. I’d love to try kite surfing with a nice reward of a massage on the beach. Bali is on my bucket list and I hope to visit soon and have some beach fun!
Bali is on our list since long and now you have given us good reasons to visit it at earliest. There are so many beach activities there, Awesome. I would love trying all of these especially kite surfing, biking, and snorkeling.
We’ve done parasailing once, but that was in Tunisia. Would love to do it again in Bali, where we haven’t been yet! And jet skiing is also something we’ve always wanted to do! Thanks for sharing these activities! 🙂
Thanks for the perfect ways to enjoy summer in Bali! So perfect since summer is approaching! I really love all of the photos! They looked so inviting and so thrilling!
My impression of a Bali vacation is lying on the beach lazily and sitting around in the resort. Thanks for the many suggestions on water activities which one can embark on in this Indonesian island! I’ll start reconsidering it as a potential travel destination now 🙂
We did it all but the last two when we were in Bali last year. Banana boat ride and snorkeling were my favorites and I did them so many times. I guess, it’s about time to head to Bali again!
So I’ve never heard of the Rolling Donut but I am in! It sounds like so much fun. All of it does, but that one really stands out! And right after I’m heading to the bar made of bamboo. How cool is that?
With endless list of water sports provided, I would like to go for Rolling Donut and Kite Surfing that I’ve never experienced before. And in the beautiful surroundings of Bali this gonna be have fun.
Bali is always so much fun. Parasailing is something I first did here and absolutely loved it. I am hoping to do Scuba here the next time for I really want to see those underwater creatures. Kite surfing too seems like a good deal. Cheers to Bali
Nice List of activities in Bali. With the arrival of spring your list is intriguing.
