ACTIVITIES

The Menjangan offers a wide range of activities. On the water you can launch a kayak off our jetty and explore the inlets and private beaches of Bajul Bay, and take a thrilling boat ride to Menjangan Island to dive or snorkel some of the best coral reefs in the region. On land the forests await, offering excellent birdwatching, nature walks, mountain biking and horseriding.

Or take a leisurely cooking class or a pampering spa treatment.

Several world-class dive sites lie off Menjangan Island, a short boat ride away. Explore coral gardens, reef walls and abundant marine life on this spectacular reef: everything from sea fans, pygmy seahorses and vivid gorgonians to schools of snapper and reef sharks. It is strongly recommended that you book diving activities in advance in order to avoid disappointment.

Kayak through the mangroves and out across the shimmering waters of Bajul Bay and visit nearby “Banyuwedang” Hot Springs. Go for it on your own and take as long as you want to seek out the bay's secret sandy beaches. Or hire our guide and learn about the bay's flora and fauna. We have single and double kayaks with lifejackets.

Experience the beauty of the park on horseback. Our stable of faithful Australian horses know these woods probably better than we do! Take in the views of the forest and beach, guided by our trained staff who tailor each trek to suit your riding ability. Early morning or late afternoon are best, so both you and the horses avoid the heat of the sun.

Explore the forest on foot or by mountain bike. Our trained guides will share secrets about the flora and fauna, such as which are the most tuneful birds and which leaf to use for antiseptic. Remember to tread softly to get close to a monitor lizard sunning himself on a rock, or the Menjangan, a unique species of deer for whom the resort is named.

With more than 120 species of bird in the West Bali National Park, many of which are on the endangered species list, a guided tour is a rewarding experience. Look out for the Bali Starling and help us to protect these rare and endemic birds as they fight their way back from extinction.

Dine by candlelight under the stars with your loved one at various indoor and outdoor locations around the resort, or allow us to organise a private BBQ for you and your family or friends. However you choose to dine you'll enjoy our delicious and innovative cuisine, the perfect mix of local and Western dishes.
