Bali Holiday Guide for Beginner

4. Where to Eat in Bali

Half the joy of travel is discovering your favourite spots so that you can indulge in them and share your own experiences with friends and family. It's also entirely worthwhile to ask locals and fellow travellers where they like to dine and why. That said, for a couple of starter ideas, the following places are tried, tested and loved.

• Cafe Organic is gorgeously tropical in a kitschy, joyful way.
• Pineapples sit at every table. It's a bright, open space with white walls and indoor palm trees (great for your Instagram).
• Healthy and nutritious, the meals are all available in-house and for takeaway, and there is plenty of smoothies, juices, coffee and kombucha to choose from.

In Ubud, Kafe has long been a favourite of visitors. With dependable Wi-Fi, a great menu of mostly vegetarian and vegan meals (as well as keto and macrobiotic options) and a wide range of juices, this stalwart venue is still one of the best in Bali.

For plant-based, gluten-free pizza, try the sundried tomato and also the wild mushroom and spinach pizza at Alchemy (and finish off with a refreshing scoop of raw ice cream).
Check out Samasama Coffee House Canggu for a post-surf lunch or brunch. Sit indoors or soak up the sunshine and beach breeze outdoors with your latte or matcha.

5. What to Pack for Bali

Check online for a guide to the weather in the particular region of Bali you're travelling to. While the general guide to seasons is largely accurate, online weather guides provide the most up to date guidance as to what you should pack.

A set of staples, with tank tops, shorts and also a long-sleeved top and loose long pants or skirt so as to be able to enter temples or sacred places while maintaining adequate cover, will get you through your first holiday to Bali.

Sunscreen, sunglasses, swimwear and a hat are all advised, also. If you're visiting during the wet season, don't forget your rain jacket. As for shoes, sandals or thongs are a must, but it might also be a good idea to pack a pair of hiking boots if you have a trek or two on your itinerary. Note, as well, that some nightclubs don't allow guests to wear flip flops or sandals, so if you want to do some partying, be sure to pack an appropriate pair of shoes.

Many hostels have universal outlets, but should you need to, you can buy an adaptor for the power points from any of the local supermarkets and it's much cheaper than at the airport. Now that you're armed with some Bali Holiday Guide For Beginners tips and be on your way to falling in love with this Indonesian island.
