The idyllic village of Bali is situated on the rugged northern coast of Crete, in Greece, and is a great option for those looking to relax for a week or two in the sun. Like many Greek island resorts, Bali started out as a sleepy fishing village, and while its history can still be seen and felt, today Bali holidays are recognised as a modern resort with fantastic beaches and coves (backed by the beautiful Mount Kouloukonas), authentic towns and a quaint harbour – plus a selection of traditional tavernas and bars across the resort.
Whether you head to the hills, hit the coast or enjoy a day out in the nearby cities and towns, Bali holidays are great for young families and friends who like to explore. There's an abundance of things to do in Bali, Crete, which is nestled between the two capital towns of Heraklion and Rethymnon, including the must-see Samaria Gorge – the longest in Europe – and the famous Dikteon Caves, an ideal day trip for adventure seekers. The beaches in the area are gorgeous, and if you want to learn how to dive, the clear waters at Hippocampos Bali Dive Centre are where to head.
Holidays to Bali are accessible from any part of the island, with regular buses running from neighbouring resorts – making it a great base for a day trip. The best time to visit this part of Crete is in late spring, early summer when the weather is pleasant for both beach activities and sightseeing opportunities – the hottest months are July and August. We have fantastic deals on self-catering, half board and full board resorts in this beautiful corner of Greece, so you can sink your toes into the sand and relax knowing you can save a packet on your spring, summer and late getaways!
There are five sand and shingle bays to
choose from in Bali. Karavostasi Beach is a great place to hire a sun bed and
spend a day under a blue and white umbrella. The beachside tavern staff will
bring your drink over so you don’t have to lift a finger! All the beaches have
calm waters that are perfect for paddling, making them a great choice for
fun-loving families.
If you're after an authentic afternoon away
from the hustle and bustle, Old Port Bali's traditional charm is great for
lounging and lunching. The beach in this fishing village is backed by quaint
cafés, bars and tavernas serving fresh fish and local delicacies. Take a dip in
the clear blue sea and keep your eyes peeled for turtle. Board a boat from the
port and explore further afield.
Bali’s popularity as a family resort means
that those looking to party all night are better off elsewhere. But if you do
want to relax over a chilled glass of wine and some traditional Greek food,
Bali’s excellent choice of tavernas will certainly whet your appetite! Don't
miss Gaia, a speciality shop that sells olive oil and other treats.
Whether you’re a complete beginner or an
experienced underwater explorer, a diving trip with Bali’s Hippocampos Dive
Center is a great way to spend a day of your holiday. This isn’t the tropics,
so don’t expect to see many coral reefs but you will find plenty of fish, and
if you’re lucky, you might uncover some pretty seahorses too.

Planning a holiday is always an exciting time, but knowing where to start can often cause confusion.
