Bali is a small, Indonesian island and attracts many people from all over the world, year in, year out. It’s Indonesia’s most popular tourist attraction, and it’s no real surprise. It’s a beautiful island that is full of splendid scenery, friendly people, and a lot of sun, sea and sand. So, if you are considering putting Bali onto your bucket list, I strongly advise you to go for it! Here are five reasons why.
The environment
When you ask people to describe their ultimate holiday, they will close their eyes and tell you about a place with beautiful golden sands, crystal clear waters, and a lot of sun. Well, that pretty much describes Bali. So, if those are the sort of attractions that you crave on a trip away, then get booking right away. It isn’t all about sipping cocktails on the beach, though. Bali is one of the best places in Indonesia for surfing, and there are plenty more watersports to enjoy, too. All in all, it’s the perfect environment for any style of holiday you want.
The welcome
A lot of Bali’s income comes from the tourist industry, but don’t let that fool you - the people aren’t just out to make a quick buck; they are actually that friendly. Religion plays a significant role in the lives of the Balinese, and you can see its influence everywhere, from the many festivals that take place to the incredible temples you will see. However, religions biggest influence is perhaps most apparent in the welcome you will receive. The people are gracious, friendly and respectful, and the vast majority will want you to have an amazing stay.
The cost
Hotel prices are some of the most affordable in the world, so as long as you can afford the flights over, it works out as a very cheap breakaway. You can either save your money and enjoy a stay in a budget backpackers for next to nothing or spend a little bit more and enjoy some exquisite luxury.

I’m not sure for how long prices will remain low in Bali, but for now, you can get more than your money’s worth - so be quick!
The shopping
Although most people come to Bali for adventure sports or beach relaxation, there’s a lot going on inland, too. Bali is great for shopping, and there’s plenty on offer for anyone looking to pick up some unique pieces. Whether you are looking for bright, traditional clothing to take home with you, or just little craft pieces for gifts for the family back home, there’s plenty here for all.
The memories
Finally, you will never forget your visit to Bali. And, if life is about having experiences and making memories, then you will have some of the best to draw from for many years to come. Let me know if you intend to go and who knows: maybe I will make it over, too!
How about the food? I am now thinking of bringing my littlest one to experience Bali with me. =>
