Bali Brochure 2017

Fun for
all ages
Due to its protective reef and
breakwaters, Sanur Beach, on the
island’s east coast, is a favoured
hangout for families. The entire
5 kilometres stretch is quiet and
relaxed, with several restaurants,
cafés and shady palm trees.
When it comes to waterparks, the
kids couldn't even dream of one as
cool as the sprawling Waterbom
Waterpark. The best in Asia, it covers
all sorts of heights and frights, with
slides that are a whopping 250 metres
long and others that reach speeds of
70 kilometres per hour.
Bali Hai Reef Cruises offer a little
bit of something for every family
member. Departing Benoa Harbour,
the full day luxury cruise sails to
Lembongan Island where it moors
alongside a purpose-built pontoon.
With unlimited banana boat rides, a
35 metre water slide, refreshments
and village excursions, there’s
something for everyone.
More bang for
your rupiah
When in Bali, you’d be a fool not to
indulge in a massage. Or several.
In places such as Legian, Seminyak
and Kuta, there’s a massage
boutique every 50 metres. Simply
walk in and enjoy a full body onehour
massage for as little as $12.
Food and drinks are also a bargain,
with bottled water costing little
more than $1, and local warungs
with menu items starting from $5.
Sanur Beach is one of the best
places in Bali to partake in yoga
because cheap rates are a walletfriendly
$15 per lesson. And if
it’s outdoor pursuits you crave,
surfing lessons can be sought for
$8 and you’ll get a full two hours.
Or if you’d prefer an underwater
experience, rent a mask and snorkel
in the Coral Triangle Region for less
than $15.
Come home
restored
Bali offers an infinite amount of
feel-good wellness options. From
spas to cheap massages, reflexology
and yoga, it’s all about finding your
inner calm.
Bali is popular for its coffee (Kopi
Luwak) which they incorporate
into many spa treatments due to
its anti-inflammatory properties.
Chakras are meant to stimulate
your ‘third eye’ and open a portal
into your soul, but if that’s all a bit
intense, try one of Bali’s numerous
rooftop spas, with bars and resident
DJs to complement a full menu of
treatments.
Enjoy Qigong (a form of meditation
that incorporates both Yoga and
Tai Chi), or if you’re a hands-on
individual, try a silver workshop
in Ubud, where you’ll learn
traditional Balinese silver-smithing
to create your own bespoke piece of
jewellery.
