Things To Do
BARC4Balidogs INDONESIA
This dog sanctuary is especially close to us, as in lieu of wedding favours we will be making a donation to this incredibly honourable charity on behalf of our guests. If you are staying in Ubud, I highly recommend you visit this Bali dog rescue shelter. You will be able to play, cuddle and give love to the 40+ dogs that have been mistreated + neglected, on the streets of Bali. Many are still recovering from serious injuries, and therefore require love from people to re-build their trust. They always are in desperate need of towels, dog food, collars and new or used toys, so if you have the space to bring these with you to Bali, please take these to donate. If you do not plan to visit, Adam and I will take these for you.
Uluwatu Beach
Uluwatu is approximately 1 hour south of Seminyak. There is a very cool surfer-hippie vibe here and Bingin Beach is really laid back. The beaches are pristine, offering a decent swell for the surfers and the warungs (small family-run cafés/restaurants) offer delicious food-with-views, including smoothie bowls and nasi gorengs,
Tanah Lot
What is it? A temple combining the cultural, natural and historical elements of Bali in one spot. Why go? The Hindu temple has long been a pilgrimage site thanks to the temple being steeped within a stunning rock facade by the sea.
Kelly's Warung
What is it? A stripped back local’s spot on Bingin Beach. Why go? To try one of Indonesia’s most loved dishes, nasi goreng. Fried rice comes packed with veggies and an egg on top, making it a perfect post-swim or surf meal, and they’ll also do you a mean fresh juice or smoothie. Add in views of the Indian Ocean and sunshine and you’ve got a near perfect, relaxed (and cheap) Balinese lunch.
Bali Swing
What is it? Best described as an adults playground, this jaw-dropping jungle surrounding is not only home to vegetation galore, but 12 oversized swings that flutter you over incredible panoramic views. Why go? Not only does it make for a great Instagram shot, but there's an unavoidable air of nostalgia about Bali swing. With swings ranging from 12 metres to a whopping 78 metres, it's a slice of high-altitude fun (but don't worry, you’re all buckled in).
Yoga Searcher Bali
What is it? Stretch out and realign yourself at this beautiful open-air yoga studio located in Uluwatu. Why go? Adam and I stayed here for 2 days to do a yoga retreat. They host drop-in classes and mats are provided, so all you have to do is show up. You’ll be guided through a one and a half-hour class, where your left feeling revitalised and chilled. After class order an icy cold coconut from their Vegan Bar and Cafe!
Surfing at Dreamland Beach
What is it? Bali has long been a surfer’s haven and for good reason – there are awesome waves year round. Why go? This break located near Uluwatu is a great place to surf for both experienced surfers and when the swell is smaller is suitable for beginners, as it breaks over sand instead of rocks or coral.
Ulu Cliffhouse
What is it? Beach Club with Creative cocktails & local seafood served in sprawling contemporary digs with striking sea views. Why Go? With direct access to the beach, Ulu Cliffhouse showcases a 25-meter infinity pool, world-class food and drinks served from an open-air restaurant and cliff side ocean deck hanging provocatively over the waves. Not a restaurant, a hotel, a bar and more than just the traditional beach club. Ulu Cliffhouse is your ultimate day out in Bali.
Bikini Restaurant Bali
What is it? Progressive shared-plate menu & cocktails, re-imagining fine dining. Why Go? Bikini is a quirky, modern, luxe bar and restaurant that’s great for date nights and chilled catch-ups. But don’t let its name mislead you: showing up in swimwear is not allowed.
Ginger Moon
Hidden in plain sight, Ginger Moon is an exceptional restaurant in the heart of Bali's dining district. Everyday prices and incredible flavours. If you are staying in Seminyak and are looking for a restaurant, this one is a no brainer!
La Lucciola
Based in Seminyak, and evening beach views to die for, This happening beachside restaurant is lovingly referred to as 'La Looch' and looks out onto one of the prettiest stretches of Seminyak beach. The new Italian chef offers classic Mediterranean fare with a touch of Asian spice. The only way to get to the restaurant is through the parking lot of the famous Petitenget Temple next door.
