Bali is said to be one of the world’s best-golfing destinations. The island offers golfers from all over the world a challenging and beautiful setting with a combo of testing greens and well-maintained fairways that are perfectly situated in some of Bali’s most stunning locations.

Surrounded by the island’s most iconic mountains and lakes, Handara Golf & Resort, Bali is populated by lush greenery that creates a dramatic backdrop for an inspiring round of play golf. Situated in the cool highlands of Bedugul, the golf resort is Bali’s first and oldest golf course. The 18-hole, par 72 championship golf course was masterfully designed by five-time British Open Champion Peter Thomson, along with Ronald Fream and Michael Wolveridge.

Below we have made a list of the reasons why you should travel to Bali for a memorable golf holiday:
