    Ubud Monkey Forest can be a highlight for groups travelling to central Bali. It's both a nature reserve and a Hindu temple complex that’s situated within the village of Padangtegal in Ubud. There are over 600 grey long-tailed macaques that frolic in the park that’ll keep you and your group occupied for a few good hours – there’s plenty of opportunities for selfies with the monkeys.

    The monkeys are most active during the day and you can watch their antics from up close. The hilly forest sanctuary also has over 115 species of trees. There are many trails with great access to many parts of the park, including a lush ravine and an amphitheatre where cultural performances are regularly held.

    Seminyak is a popular beach resort that can be great for groups looking for some fun in the sun (and dramatic sunsets). Known for its luxury hotels and high-end shopping and restaurants, there’s plenty to see and do with a sophisticated flair. You can stroll along boutique-lined streets and hunt for beautiful handmade items, then enjoy a lively nightlife scene.

    The beach is much quieter during the day, which is ideal for groups looking for some relaxation and unwinding. The beach also offers great surfing. Surf season runs from April to November and groups can take advantage of courses offered for all levels of learning. Surfing conditions in Seminyak are best in the morning, before the winds pick up.

    Tanah Lot temple can be a great spot to visit in Bali as a group. The temple on a unique offshore rock formation is one of Bali’s most iconic, offering scenic views backed by the open ocean. To reach the temple, you must walk through a number of Balinese souvenir shops on a path leading down to the sea.

    The temple itself is only accessible during low tide and although non-Hindu visitors aren’t allowed inside the temple, there are great photo opportunities from the shore. There are also restaurants and cafés available, serving drinks and dinners with a dramatic view. The best time to visit is obviously in time for the sunsets.

    You can discover the ‘real Bali’ up in the rural mountain villages of central Bali such as Payangan, north of Ubud. One of the best ways to do so is to get down and dirty with exhilarating rides on quadbikes, also known as ATVs or ‘all-terrain vehicles’. You can rev through forest trails and designated village routes with ease. Alternatively, you can rush through the trails in specially designed buggies that seat 2 at a time – you can take turns in handling the steering wheel for your desired level of thrills.

    Central Bali offers cool temperatures and lush hillsides that make for the ultimate stress relief, especially for adrenaline junkies. The more, the merrier.
