One place I’ve always wanted to explore is Indonesia, and being one of the most popular islands there, Bali is high on the list, and with the snow and rain of recent it’s lead me to daydream more about exploring there.
Generally, you think of Bali and think volcanic mountains, beautiful beaches, and stunning coral reefs. Known for its meditation and yoga retreats, it seems like a beautiful calming destination. To top this off you think of staying in a beautiful Bali vacation villa.

3. Explore the coral reefs
When in a beautiful place with stunning views and gorgeous waters, it’s only natural to want to explore the corals. You may not necessarily wish to get wet though so exploring out on a glass-bottomed boat would be much more enjoyable. Exploring the detail of the fish, the stunning corals, and the other amazing marine life out in their natural habitats has got to be an amazing time.
4. Bali Safari and Marine Park

6. Beaches
Finally, a visit to the beach, you cannot go on holiday and not enjoy the waves gliding across your feet. There are some beautiful family friendly beaches in Bali including Batu Bolong Beach, Nusa Dua Beach and Sanur Beach. Batu Bolong is more the beach for surfers and lazy sandy days. Nusa Dua is ideal for families who enjoy walks, although shoes are essential due to the coral and seaweed. Sanur beach is a family friendly clean and safe beach where the waters are shallow and the children can enjoy a splash.
The more I look into a beautiful trip to Bali, the more I wish to go. There is so much to see and explore in Bali, this is just a short snippet of my family friendly places I’d love to explore with the children. It would be such an amazing adventure, one I know we would all thoroughly enjoy as a family.
Have you ever been to Bali, either alone or as a family? Where would you recommend for must-see locations?
