Bali might be renowned for relaxation but, in recent years, it’s also become a palm-tree-fringed, sunset-backed hotspot for fitness fanatics looking to get their sweat on in style. 

It doesn’t matter whether you're after a luxury gym with cold towels and ocean views, a hardcore CrossFit session, or a community-focused fitness hub, Bali’s gyms are as diverse as the island itself. 

One thing you’ll likely notice is that most of Bali’s best gyms are in and around Canggu. Sure, you’ll find gyms all over the island but, for the ocean backdrops and fancy protein shakes, you’ll want to stick to the tourist-heavy areas. Read on for all of our favourites!
