Captivating Waterfalls in Bali That Are A Must For Your Honeymoon Bali Itinerary

1. Banyumala Twin Waterfall

Flowing down rocky slopes and watering gigantic ferns and moss layers on its way, this hidden gem in the northern parts of the island, this is definitely one of the most fascinating waterfalls in Bali. Banyumala Twin Waterfalls are a perennial water body with a crystal clear plunge pool forming under the 30 m high cascade. Visitors have to hike an easy trail to reach this destination hidden deep in the woods. The best time of the year to visit these falls is between December and February just after the monsoon season. Although the existence of this waterfall is well known, very few tourists actually make it to here – so you might actually be able to find good cinematic shots on this trip!

Entry Fee: 30,000 IDR

Time Taken To Visit: 2 to 3 hours 

2. Gitgit Waterfall

By far the most popular name on list of White Waterfalls in Bali, these have the reputation of being one of the best waterfalls in Bali for Couple, family and Solo Travellers. Surrounded by a beautiful, lush green landscape, Gitgit waterfalls have been made unique thanks to the massive, speedy stream at the bottom and the great boulders that have surrounded the area for millions of years. A beautiful bridge has been constructed over this stream to make it easy for tourists to view this breathtaking, gushing water monster. The waterfall is located close to the village of Munduk, where travelers can stop for a little to enjoy the local view and cuisine. The wonders of such a massive waterfall sneaking past a tiny gap between the trees is in itself worth this adventure!

3. Tegenungan Waterfall 

Feeling like you have visited too many waterfalls already and need something unique to catch your attention? Come away to the rugged, panoramic landscape of Tegenungan.

Actually this cascade is nothing but the Petanu river tumbling down the hills and flowing towards the ocean! The surrounding cliffs make it possible to view this waterfall from several different heights and even the top. Travelers will find vendors selling local fruits and savory dishes close to the waterfall at affordable prices. If you visit these falls at the right time, you might even get a chance to swim in the fresh, cold water. Would you visit this waterfall? Let us know in the comments below.

4. Sekumpul Waterfall

Perhaps no falls in Bali or for that matter in Indonesia itself can compare with the unique beauty of this location. Sekumpul waterfall looks like a place straight out of a Disney movie. The overflowing foliage of this region gently covers the forceful cascade that tumbles down (photographers will delight at being able to click pictures of several streams of water tumbling down the rocky walls together!) Another photogenic spot is the mighty river that forms under this delightful shower and rashes down a flight of natural stairs made out of boulders. And then, the river disappears inside the deep jungles. The fresh air and misty atmosphere combined with the constant chirping of wild birds make this location therapeutic in its own way.

Opening and Closing Timings: 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

5. Tukad Cepung Waterfall

Mother nature is the finest gateway through which humans can reach spiritual bliss. Tukad Cepung is one name often taken among the best waterfalls in Bali – and it indeed looks like a destination out of this mortal world. Vertical, canyon-like cliffs surround a rocky enclosure into which the uniform cascade falls like curtains and creates a beautiful natural reservoir. The mouth of this cave is covered by a canopy of trees from the top – and streams of sunlight are filtered through the leaves to fall on the rippling pool and surrounding boulders, producing an enchanting and magical ambience. The light covering of green moss on the walls and the thrilling trail that brings you out of this place are also notable experiences that make this white cascading waterfall worthwhile.

Entry Fee: 15000 IDR

Opening and Closing Timings: 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Time Taken To Visit: 1 to 2 hours

6. Nungnung Waterfall

Now cover a charming waterfall, several homely rice fields and a mysterious range of hills all in one outing. Located in the Badung Regency of Bali, Air Terjun Nungnung is a splendid shower both because of its aesthetic quality and its powerful flow. The location itself is vast and open, making it possible for visitors to sit on the surrounding bed of pebbles for hours, click pictures or wander around in the sunlight. There are a couple of food bridges drawn across the bottom stream that make way for some amazing photographs. The Nungnung waterfall is located in a quiet place in the middle of the Jungle and visitors have to climb down hundreds of stairs to reach this place.

7. Blahmantung Waterfall

These falls are famous for both their location and their height. The water tumbles down a curving pathway and forms a huge, gushing pool of water at its feet. The walls of the waterfall are covered with trees, creepers, ferns, mushrooms etc. It is one of the tallest waterfalls in Bali, falling from a height of 50 m and maybe even more. Travelers need to park their vehicles at a rural spot and then make a climb across the hills on the way up to this cascade. The walk is about 2.5 km one way, starting from the quaint Pujungan Village. The flowing river at the bottom is equally beautiful and deserves a few moments with your camera. This is one of those waterfalls in Bali that almost always remains a little secluded and you can sit here for hours to paint, talk and write.

Time Taken To Visit: 1 day

Entry Fee: 520,000 IDR for adults and 370, 000 for children. The pass let’s you stay for one day. 2 day passes are also available.

8. Tibumana Waterfall

This waterfall is not known for its height, but rather the unique, crisp edges of the cliff it falls from and the deep pool it forms below. The entrance gate to Tibumana waterfall is shaped like the traditional Bali and Princess from which it is a 10-minute walk to the base of the falls. You can easily swim around and enjoy the sparkling, turquoise what is of this hip-deep pool. When the monsoon season is near, the majestic waterfall showers its best and the surrounding foliage rises up to cover the sun – making this enclosure look all the more majestic. According to many, Tibumana is the best secret water body in the whole of Bali. All you need to do is climb a beautiful bamboo bridge and walk across a well-kept tropical garden to get in and out of this area.

9. Aling-Aling Waterfall 

Bali is a one of a kind tropical destination that beautifully combines the wonders of its volcanic hills with that of its golden shores. Aling Aling, just like Bali itself, is a location that looks amazing in every season. The flow of the water is powerful and strong throughout the year, and while during spring beautiful flowers adorn the valley, during autumn many leaves turn brown. The waterfall drains into a deep gorge-like formation and the resulting stream runs swiftly through the narrow pathways along the boulders, even entering a cave on the way. Each of these forms an almost separate pond to swim in! Aling Aling Waterfall is surrounded by a rugged plateau where you can stand and take astonishingly gorgeous pictures.

Entry Fee: 10000 IDR

Opening and Closing Timings: 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

Time Taken To Visit: 2 to 3 hours 

10. Kanto Lampo Waterfall

The waterfall is misty and the pool is clean, with the overall atmosphere encouraging thrilling, adrenaline-inducing emotions. The black rock formations continue down the path of the river like a canyon. Located near the Beng Village, it can easily be approached from Seminyak or the Kuta town. From the entrance gate, one has to walk into the Jungle for 10 minutes straight before they come upon this beautiful clearing. Considered one of the best white cascade waterfalls in Bali, Kanto Lampo is located near the sacred hot spring of the same name. Water from this waterfall is used for irrigating nearby fields and supplying domestic water to surrounding hamlets.

Entry Fee: 20000 IDR

Opening and Closing Timings: 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.

Time Taken To Visit: 2 to 3 hours 

11. Rang Reng Cave

In our opinion, no other waterfall worldwide can compare with this destination. Rang Reng Cave is quite underrated and very few people visit this gigantic stream of water that gently flows down the hill across rocks, trees and rugged grasslands. The water can easily pull up to the chest, making this one of the most satisfying waterfalls to swim in Bali. When the flow is less, soft sandy platforms appear on the surface which makes the cave look very similar to a tropical beach. If you keep following the stream, you will come upon an overflowing pool framed on all sides by the lush green jungle. You can also enjoy a Bali swing hanging between the mossy cliffs, with a deep blue ravine collecting water right under you.

Entry Fee: no entry cost
