Bali Google Maps

Get access to 200+ of our private Google Maps pins!

On the surface, Bali looks like paradise. In reality, it’s one of the easiest places to get wrong.

Crowds are everywhere, traffic eats entire days, and most “must-see” spots are already ruined by mass tourism. It’s painfully easy to waste your trip following outdated blogs and influencer suggestions that lead to disappointment.

We spent two months travelling every corner of the island, and saw firsthand how quickly Bali loses its magic when you don’t know where to go.

This Bali Google Maps exists so you don’t leave feeling like you missed the best parts. We show you the Bali most visitors never find, before it disappears completely.

We Almost Hated Bali…

The crowds were overwhelming, even in the off-season. Constant traffic, scooter fumes, horns, people pushing past just to get down the street. Everything felt busy, loud, and built for tourists. The cafés everyone raves about were expensive, overcrowded, and nothing like the “old Bali” we’d been promised.

We kept thinking:
Is this really it?
Has Bali been ruined?
Did we get this completely wrong?

This is where most first-time visitors spend their time, and if our trip had only been 7–10 days, this would’ve been our entire experience. We would’ve followed the advice, sat in traffic, battled the crowds, and flown home convinced Bali just wasn’t for us.

But once we left the hotspots, everything changed.

The roads emptied. Life slowed down. We walked through silent rice terraces, snorkelled in empty bays, and found waterfalls with no one else around. Bali finally felt peaceful, local, and real.

That’s when it hit us: Most people don’t miss the best of Bali because it doesn’t exist. They miss it because they go where everyone else goes.

This is why we made our Bali Google Maps

Bali isn’t ruined, but it is easy to experience the wrong version of it.

Some popular places are worth seeing. The problem is getting stuck there, following the same advice, and never knowing what else exists just a little further out.

After two months exploring the entire island, we realised how much of Bali most first-time visitors never see, and how different the experience feels when you know where to go, what to skip, and how to avoid the crowds.

So we turned everything we discovered into one private Google Maps. This is the exact map we wish we’d had on day one.

We don’t want to tell you how to travel Bali.
We want to give you the confidence to travel it your way, without the regret.


What’s Inside The Bali Google Maps

This isn’t a list of places pulled from other travel blogs or Instagram.

Every pin on this map comes from two months of travelling Bali slowly, getting lost, leaving the obvious places, and finding the ones that actually made us fall in love with the island.

Inside the map, you’ll find 200+ pins, each with our personal comments, tips, and recommendations. This includes:

  • Places that feel calm, local, and untouched, even in busy areas
  • Beaches, waterfalls, snorkelling and surf spots that aren’t overrun
  • Cafés and restaurants worth going out of your way for (not just trending ones)
  • Quiet rice terraces, viewpoints, and walks most people walk straight past
  • Locations across the north, east, west, south, and hidden corners of central Bali
  • Popular spots too, so you know what’s worth seeing, and what isn’t

Everything is organised in Google Maps so you can open it on your phone, see what’s nearby, and make better decisions in the moment, without overplanning or endless scrolling.


Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, especially for first-time visitors. We made this map because we were first-time visitors, and we almost experienced the wrong version of Bali. This map helps you avoid getting stuck in the busiest areas and shows you what else exists beyond the obvious stops.

Yes. We’ve covered a lot of the popular tourist hotspots as well as plenty of hidden gems nearby.

No, and that’s intentional. We chose not to include places that are already heavily saturated with content, crowds, and recommendations elsewhere online.

That said, the map does include plenty of popular areas around Bali, along with quieter alternatives nearby, so you can decide for yourself how much time you want to spend in busier places.

If anything, this is when the map is most useful. With limited time, it’s easy to lose entire days to traffic and overcrowded spots. This map helps you make better choices, faster, so you don’t leave feeling like you missed the best of Bali.

You can, but that’s exactly how most people end up following the same advice, going to the same places, and having the same crowded experience. This map isn’t algorithm-driven or trend-based. Every location is there because we’ve been, loved it, or genuinely think it’s worth your time.

Yes. It opens directly in Google Maps on your phone or laptop. We also include a PDF download with simple instructions on how to get the most out of your map.

Yes. This map is based on our most recent time in Bali and reflects what the island actually feels like now, not how it looked five years ago (it’s changed A LOT in that time). We’ll also continue to update it as we return and discover more.

Not at all. This is for anyone who wants options. You can mix popular places with quieter ones, slow down when you want to, and explore beyond the hotspots without feeling lost or overwhelmed.

You’ll get instant access via email. Open the link, save the map to your Google account, and it’s yours to use whenever you’re in Bali.

Because this is a digital product with instant access, all sales are final and we’re unable to offer refunds.

That said, we’ve been very intentional about explaining exactly who this map is (and isn’t) for throughout this page. If you’re a first-time visitor who wants to experience Bali beyond the overcrowded hotspots, this map will give you far more value than a refund ever could.
