Gay Vacation Packages To Bali

By Howie Holben


Those seeking gay vacations will love Bali as a destination that offers historical, cultural and spiritual sites, welcoming residents and plenty to see and do.

Whether opting for solo gay vacations or gay tours, LGBT travelers will find that Bali has much to offer, including wonderful beaches, delicious cuisine, beautiful temples, volcanoes, terraced rice fields, exceptional shopping and even LGBT scenes in some of its major cities. From countryside villages offering handmade crafts, to fashionable boutiques and elegant hotels, Bali is a diverse, intriguing island country that is simply waiting to be explored.

Kuta, Seminyak and Legian each has an array of clubs, spas, restaurants and bars from which to choose, providing a variety of nighttime entertainment opportunities for LGBT travelers looking for a night out on the town. Drag shows are very popular in Bali and there are several clubs that offer shows throughout the week. The most popular of these is Hulu Caf, which is well-known for being Bali's original drag club and hosts performers six nights each week, often with internationally-known drag performers.

There are also garden restaurants and beachfront cafs that offer lovely natural settings, drinks, food and massage services, such as Bonita's and Callego Caf & Spa in Seminyak. For a slightly more upscale experience, La Lucciola Restaurant is located directly on Petitenget Beach, next to the Pura Petitenget Temple, and offers exceptional ocean views, delectable Italian cuisine and excellent service, which is provided by an all-male staff.

While there are no exclusively LGBT beaches, Petitenegret is frequented by travelers on vacation and is very popular with the community, particularly the area around Callego Caf & Spa. Cruising occurs in the nearby wooded area, and Callego is a very popular hangout. Other popular beaches include Ganesha in Seminyak and Blue Ocean Beach in Kata.

If you are considering gay travel to Bali, either as a spiritual journey or an exotic vacation that allows you to explore this beautiful country while experiencing the LGBT community in a foreign land, you may want to consider participating in Bali gay tours.

When traveling as part of organized gay tours, you will have the opportunity to meet new people, take in significant cultural and historical sites and focus on enjoying your vacation, while avoiding having to manage the more mundane logistics of planning your trip. Allowing travel professionals who are well-versed in arranging a gay vacation to handle the trip planning for you allows you to simply relax and enjoy your journey, while making lifelong memories and new friends.
