If you’re planning a trip to Bali, you’ve probably seen plenty of options for water activities, spa days, and seafood feasts. One tour that combines all three offers a balanced taste of Bali’s adventure and relaxation scenes in just one day. While I didn’t personally go on this exact trip, after digging into reviews, itineraries, and what’s included, this experience seems to be a nifty way to pack in some highlights without spending a fortune.
What we really like about this tour is its well-structured flow: water sports in the afternoon, a soothing Balinese massage, and ending with fresh seafood — all conveniently scheduled around midday. The fact that it includes hotel pickup from multiple regions makes it super accessible, and the group discounts and private option offer flexibility. Plus, water sports insurance, tax, and services are covered, so no surprise costs.
However, a potential consideration is that the duration is around 5 to 7 hours, which means you’ll want to be ready for a relatively packed schedule. Also, some reviews mention organizational hiccups, so it’s worth staying flexible. This tour suits travelers looking for a balanced day of adventure and relaxation without the hassle of planning each step independently. If you love a mix of marine thrills, pampering, and a beachfront feast, this could be just right.

Here are more experiences we've reviewed in Seminyak
Water Sports in Tanjung Benoa
The adventure kicks off around 12:00 PM with pickup from your hotel, and you’ll be whisked to Bali Water Sports, located in Tanjung Benoa. Here, the real fun begins. The water activities—Jet Ski, Parasailing, and Banana Boat—are all designed to give you that adrenaline rush and unforgettable marine experience.
What’s notable, based on traveler feedback, is the well-organized nature of the water sports, with included life jackets and guidance from instructors. For those worried about safety, the Jet Ski activity is guided by an instructor at no extra cost, ensuring peace of mind. Expect a lively, fun-filled two hours, with opportunities to snap some photos and enjoy the water from different perspectives.
A review mentioned that “everything was unorganized and lame” was a negative comment, but that might be an outlier. Most seem to find the activities well-managed, with the instructors ensuring safety and fun. Given the adventure-packed nature, prepare to get wet and wild, but also relaxed knowing you’re covered with insurance and proper gear.
Balinese Spa Experience at Bali Orchid Spa
After your splashy adventures, you’ll be driven to Bali Orchid Spa for a 2-hour holistic massage and relaxation session. The setting resembles Bali’s signature style: balinese decor, open tropical gardens, and waterfalls. Reviewers praise the balmy, soothing environment which enhances the therapeutic experience.
The treatments include traditional massage techniques that release tension, improve blood circulation, and promote detoxification. Reflexology or foot massages are also available, perfect for relieving stress and revitalizing tired feet after a day in the water. One reviewer noted that the massage “releases tension, frees muscle tissues of toxins, and improves circulation”—a clear sign that this isn’t just a quick pamper but a rejuvenation session.
Jimbaran Seafood Dinner
The finale is a beachfront seafood feast in Jimbaran. Expect freshly grilled seafood, prepared in traditional Balinese style, over coconut husk fires for an authentic aroma and flavor. The set menu includes a variety of locally caught seafood and even non-seafood options like grilled chicken, catering to different tastes.
The dining experience is incredibly laid-back: tables right on the sand, with the sound of the waves and the crackle of grills creating a true Bali beach vibe. Reviewers rave about the delicious taste and fresh quality of the seafood, describing it as a highlight of the day. One shared that “the seafood was absolutely delicious, leaving our taste buds satisfied”.
This part of the tour lasts about an hour, giving plenty of time to enjoy the food, chat, and soak in the sunset views. It’s a perfect way to unwind after a day full of activity.
Logistics and Practical Info
This tour offers hotel pickup and drop-off from key regions like Seminyak, Kuta, Ubud, Nusa Dua, Jimbaran, and others, making it accessible for most travelers. The air-conditioned vehicle ensures comfort, especially after the water activities and spa.
The cost of $130 per person is quite reasonable considering the inclusions, especially since water sports, spa, and dinner are all covered. The price reflects good value for an afternoon of activities mixed with relaxation, particularly for travelers who prefer a pre-planned experience rather than piecing everything together.
A few practical notes: wear smart casual attire suitable for water sports and the spa, and don’t forget sunscreen and your camera. The tour is suitable for ages 9 to 60, making it accessible for families, couples, and groups of friends.
