Bali Water Sports Tour – Parasailing, Jet Ski, Banana Boat, and more

While Bali is known to be a tranquil island for relaxation and unwinding, the Island of the Gods also offers the ideal environment to seek out adventure and try new things.

The Bali Water Sports Tour is a great opportunity to spend the day on the beach trying several thrill-seeking water sports activities like parasailing, jet skiing, riding the banana boat, and many more with a reputable Bali water sports operator. The rest of Bukit Peninsula is also yours to discover with your own private car and driver.

Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie or simply an ocean and beach lover, the Bali Water Sports Tour is a fantastic way to have some fun in the sun with your family and friends while in Bali.

Bali Water Sports Activities

A wide range of Bali water sports will be available on the operator’s location, such as Parasailing, Jet Ski, Water Ski, Flying Fish, and Bali Ocean Walked. I’ve listed the 6 most popular ones below that are most commonly booked.

I’ve also provided the option in the booking form to purchase separate quantities of tickets for each water sport. This way, some members of your group can choose to opt-out of certain water sports if it doesn’t suit their taste.


Parasailing

Parasailing is one of the more sought-out activities when it comes to Bali water sports. It’s a fun way to get an adrenaline rush over Bali’s blue waters. You’ll be harnessed to a parachute on the rear end of the boat. As the boat takes off, you’ll be lifted into the air by the parachute high above the water. You can enjoy parasailing for around 5 – 7 minutes in the air.

Jet Ski

Another popular activity in the Bali Water Sports Tour is riding the jet ski. If you’ve never ridden a jet ski before, here’s your chance to safely enjoy your first ride with a professional instructor, while exploring the coastline of Benoa for around 15 minutes.


Banana Boat

The Banana Boat or Banana Raft can be a fun activity for your family and friends to enjoy together as a group. The inflatable banana-shaped raft will be pulled by a speed boat. You’ll need a minimum of 2 people, and the banana boat can fit up to 6 people,

Flying Fish

Similar to the Banana Boat, in the sense that it’s another inflatable being pulled by a speed boat. However, the Flying Fish offers a bit more adrenaline because it gets airborne as the boat takes off. You’ll be be lying on the inflatable as you feel the sensation of momentary flight in between bouncing on the waves and swaying in the wind.

Water Ski

Water Skiing is another exhilarating activity that can be included as part of your Bali Water Sports tour. It gives you an adrenaline rush as well as a full body workout. You’ll be spending about 15 minutes with your instructor on the water. Keep in mind, water skiing might involve a bit of fitness.


Bali Ocean Walker

Another popular Bali Water Sports activity and a personal favorite of mine, is the Bali Ocean Walker. Sometimes known as the Sea Walker or Helmet Diving, it’s the opportunity to get up close and personal with the coral reef and underwater life while going for a walk on the ocean floor for about 30 minutes.

No diving experience or swimming skills necessary. You’ll be equipped with a large helmet which provides fresh air from the surface. You can breathe as if you’re still on land, and you won’t need to get your hair wet. If you wear glasses like myself, you can continue wearing them in the helmet!


Other Bali Water Sports Activities

Other Bali Water Sports activities will be available to purchase on the operator’s location in Benoa. Although, these are the less popular activities compared to those mentioned above. These include:

  • Disco Boat
  • Donut Boat
  • Speed Boat
  • Fly Boarding
  • Wake Boarding
  • Knee Boarding

If none of the water sports mentioned here interest you but you’d still like to have some fun in the water, I have the White Water Rafting Ubud Tour, or you can combine it with some ATV riding with the ATV Quad Bike and White Water Rafting Adventure Tour.


Bali Water Sports for Kids

If you’re traveling in Bali with your children, the Bali Water Sports Tour can be a memorable day for both adults and kids. A majority of the water sports activities available are suitable for children. Some will also have necessary equipment for the little ones.

It is recommended for children to be at least 10 years old to safely enjoy most of the water sports activities.


What to do after the Bali Water Sports?

The fun doesn’t need to stop after you’ve finished enjoying the Bali Water Sports activities. Your private car and driver is all yours for up to 10 hours. You can choose to continue exploring south Bali, go shopping, find a nice beach to relax, or go for dinner with your family or friends.

Suluban Beach - Uluwatu Day Tour

Due to its close proximity to Benoa and Nusa Dua, many guests often choose to explore Uluwatu after their Bali Water Sports. This includes visiting Uluwatu Temple for the famous sunset Kecak Dance, visiting the iconic GWK (Garuda Wisnu Kencana) monument, or relaxing at Suluban Beach.

Alternatively, if you’d like to spend the day exploring Uluwatu without the Bali Water Sports activities, consider the Uluwatu Day Tour.


Bali Water Sports checklist

You’ll be spending a significant amount of time in the sun and in the water, so you should be prepared to enjoy your day without any discomfort. I’ve put together a small checklist of things to remember below.

  • Sunblock
  • Change of clothes
  • Beachwear / swimming clothes
  • Towels (optional, can rent on location)
  • Water (optional, can buy on location)

What is and isn’t included

The seating configuration is 1 in the front passenger seat, 3 in the rear, and 2 more in the rear-most fold-down seats.
