Head to Kuta Beach for day and night adventures

Kuta Beach is one of the most visited attractions in Bali, largely due to its daytime and night time activities. During the day, you can soak up the sun and relax with drinks, massages, hair braiding, and even get a temporary tattoo. Or you can make a splash in the crystal-clear waters by swimming, surfing, and snorkelling. Once the sun sets, it’s time to grab a drink (or several) at the numerous restaurants and bars on the entertainment strip before heading to popular clubbing venues where you can party till dawn.

 The Vihara Dharmayana Kuta temple is a Buddhist temple with Chinese–style architecture that dates back nearly 200 years. This majestical temple with bright red walls and murals has long been a place of worship and is Kuta’s hidden gem. Located about a kilometre east of Kuta Beach, the temple was even visited by Tibet’s 14th Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso, on his international tour in 1982, which shows its enduring popularity.

If you’re looking to find the ideal way to spend the afternoon, then a “Tipsy Tea” at Kuta Social Club is a must. “Tipsy Tea” puts a twist on the traditional “High Tea” and is served on the rooftop, with breathtaking views of Kuta Beach. Instead of tea, you’ll be served exotic cocktails and a selection of sweet and savoury bites such as Hazelnut Praline Choux Craqueline or Coronation Chicken Sandwich, to name just a few of the delightful bites you’ll tuck into by the infinity pool. 

 See protected sea turtles living along Bali shoreline at Bali Sea Turtle Society

A trip to the Bali Sea Turtle Society is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The environmental group at the beachfront location protects vulnerable turtle eggs in nesting season, from approximately March to September each year. Sea turtle hatching season is from April to October, and baby turtle releases occur. There are seven sea turtle species- the Green Turtle, Hawksbill, Olive Ridley, Leatherback, Loggerhead, and Flatback. Not only is it a great cause to get behind, but it’s also a priceless experience.

All equipment is provided, and after your lesson, you can chill out at their beachfront warung.

Hit the markets
