Seminyak, with its humble beginnings, has evolved into one of Bali’s most sophisticated beach destinations. It is home to some of the most chic resorts and villas on the island, alongside bustling shopping spots, luxury spas and not forgetting, its booming café culture.
Come October, locals and tourists alike will be able to catch the legendary sunsets and marvel at the Balinese ceremonies while participating in the town’s first ever charity fun run.
Organised by Anantara Seminyak Bali Resort, Seminyak’s inaugural charity fun run – 2016 Sunset Run, will be happening on Saturday, 29 October 2016.
Smell the Sea, Feel the Breeze, Hear the Ocean
The 2016 Sunset Run comprises of a short 3km run along Seminyak Beach where runners will be put through an idyllic experience. Just imagine feeling the ocean breeze against your face and witnessing tranquil waves splashing on the sea shore while running. Complemented with the sights of palm trees against the picturesque backdrop of the sunset, this one-of-its-kind charity run will offer runners an extraordinary experience.
One of the Cheapest Runs Around
It just costs IDR150,000 (US$11.50) to join in the exceptional experience, whereby each participant will also receive entitlements inclusive of an exclusive event t-shirt, finisher medal, a bottle of mineral water and a IDR100,000 shopping voucher for use at ‘Our Daily Dose’ stores for purchase of sport apparels. Moreover, your participation might even win you attractive raffle prizes including luxury stays at Per AQUUM Maldives and Anantara resorts in South Asia Pacific, worth more than US$8,000.
A special early bird price, IDR125,000 (US$9.60) per participant, is also extended to all runners who register by Friday, 30 September 2016.
Furthermore, all proceeds raised will be donated to two non-profit organisations in Bali – the Suryani Institute for Mental Illness, which is dedicated to improving the mental health system in Bali, and the Yayasan Senyum Bali, which helps people with craniofacial disabilities. Joining the Sunset Run 2016 will allow you to build good karma and generate happiness!
‘Island Sunset Run’ Suite Package
Anantara Seminyak Bali Resort is extending a special ‘Island Sunset Run’ suite package for participants who require accommodation from 28 – 30 October 2016.

General Manager of Anantara Seminyak Bali Resort, Mr Terence T. Lee said,
“The team at Anantara Seminyak Bali Resort looks forward to welcoming resort guests, tourists and locals who wish to join the 2016 Sunset Run. As the first ever charity fun run in Seminyak, we hope that the event will be a major success in raising awareness for people in need, as part of our ongoing commitment to improve the quality of our surrounding community’s life.”
The Run is Catered for Singaporeans
Well, the statement does not come from the organiser but Singaporeans have got a substantial reason to believe so – 29 October is a public holiday!
Deepavali falls on Saturday, 29 October this year and Singaporeans will enjoy a long weekend with Monday, 31 October being a school holiday.
With so many cheap flights between Singapore and Bali, there is no better reason for non-Hindus to turn yourself down on a short getaway, furthermore for a meaningful cause at the 2016 Sunset Run!
