A round of mini golf (otherwise known as putt putt) on Nusa Lembongan is always a hit with the kids and a fun way to enjoy a couple of hours. Our friends at The Coconut Hut have a great 18 hole mini golf course that takes inspiration from the local Nusa Islands and the Indonesian culture. Who thought mini golf could be both fun and educational? Fees are not expensive for a round of mini golf. There is also a bar and restaurant at The Coconut Hut, so why not have a bite to eat and a couple of drinks whilst the kids entertain themselves!

There is a waterpark on Nusa Lembongan called Sundays water park. Okay, sure it isn't Disney Land, but the kids will enjoy a few goes on the water slides. The water park is located on a very picturesque part of Nusa Lembongan close to the yellow bridge that connects Lembongan island with Nusa Ceningan. The water park has views across the channel to Nusa Ceningan. There are also a bunch of good local eateries lined along the waterfront beaches nearby to check out whilst you are on that side of Nusa Lembongan island.

Learning to surf is another great activity for the older kids whilst on Nusa Lembongan. The local surf guides are experienced at teaching beginners and there are excellent learning conditions at the surf breaks along Jungut Batu beach. The guides will take your crew to the most appropriate surf break for the skill level and conditions. See the surf lessons section for more information or ask our reception team and they'll be happy to point you in the right direction about surfing whilst on Nusa Lembongan.
