Bali, known for its beaches and cultural attractions, also offers unique opportunities for agro-tourism. What could be better than eating fresh berries straight from the bush? Visiting strawberry fields, vineyards, and fruit orchards allows tourists to explore the island's agricultural traditions and enjoy fresh produce. Most of them are located in the central and northern parts of the island. A trip there can be conveniently combined with a visit to Bali Barat National Park if you choose to spend several days exploring the most remote and sparsely populated part of the island.
Agro-tourism in Bali offers not only the chance to enjoy fresh produce but also to immerse yourself in the local culture, learn more about the island's agricultural traditions, and enjoy scenic landscapes. Before visiting, be sure to check if there are ripe fruits available or if it is off-season.
