You will also have a network of trails that can be found high up in the trees along with swings, nets and flying zips that allows you to leap through the air while you take in the views of the forest.
Lovingly known as the Dirty Duck, this eatery is the favourite in Bali. Located near a vast rice field, the special dish here is obviously duck. If you are visiting this restaurant make sure you try the popular dish which is made of duck boiled in the soup that is made with aromatic herbs and then later drowned in local spices, and then, this duck is fried until it is crispy to the touch.
Aside from the usual clear-water diving with excellent visibility in this part of the world muck diving is an activity that will offer you a unique experience. Around Bali, there are about 7 such diving sites that can be accessed with short boat trips. While diving in these locations, do keep your eyes open for sharks, coral gardens and turtles.
Apart from water sports and natural excursions, Bali is also famous for its yoga retreats. One of such popular places is this Yoga barn and visiting this relaxing and enlightening location during the holiday can certainly lift your spirits.

This is one of the newer and more adventurous water sports that you can try in beach destinations. Strap a pair of jet packs on your feet and fly up in the air above the water for an exhilarating experience. This water jet pack will shoot you up into the sky for a height of about 10 meters and one such session usually lasts about 15 to 20 minutes. One of the greatest advantages of choosing to do this activity is that you can take a look at Bali and its beauty from a different perspective.
