Bali has become a playground for running, Hyrox, padel, surfing, BJJ, cycling and a growing range of other active pursuits. It also happens to be hot and humid for much of the year, making hydration a particularly relevant part of life on the island. Of course, Bali has no shortage of natural hydration. Fresh coconuts are everywhere, and coconut water provides fluids and naturally occurring electrolytes, particularly potassium. But for someone coming off a hard sparring session, Hyrox class, a long run or hours on the padel court, coconut water isn’t necessarily the whole hydration strategy. It tends to be relatively low in sodium, while sodium is the main electrolyte lost through sweat.
That doesn’t mean everyone training in Bali needs an electrolyte drink. For shorter or easier sessions, water and a normal diet are often enough. But when exercise is prolonged, intense or particularly sweaty, replacing both fluid and the electrolytes lost through sweat becomes more relevant.
And that’s where a new generation of hydration brands comes in. Rather than simply importing another international sports drink, several entrepreneurs are building electrolyte brands right here in Bali, shaped by the island’s climate, fitness culture and increasingly performance-focused community. There may well be others, but these are five electrolyte brands we know were born in Bali: LPN, Tenplus, HYGO, HYDRTE, and re-salt. Each has taken a slightly different approach to the same basic problem how to keep Bali’s increasingly active population hydrated.
LPN – Performance nutrition, made in Bali
LPN is short for Limitless Performance Nutrition, a broader sports-nutrition brand covering everything from protein and recovery to focus and hydration. Its 100% Electrolytes formula is zero sugar and combines 1,000mg of sodium, 200mg of potassium and 60mg of magnesium, alongside 500mg of taurine and 100mg of L-carnitine per serving. One 15g stick is mixed with 500ml of water. The current flavour is Mango Passion Fruit, with a seven-stick box listed at Rp125,000 on LPN’s official site, although we found it available at a lower retail price.
LPN has a particularly strong local presence, with official stores and partners across Canggu, Uluwatu, Denpasar, Kuta, Sanur, Ubud, Seminyak and other parts of Bali. The brand describes its products as made in Bali, Indonesia. It also has a performance team spanning sports including boxing, powerlifting and padel, fitting neatly into Bali’s increasingly diverse fitness scene.
Tenplus – The electrolyte brand with an Indonesian twist
Tenplus takes a slightly different approach to the electrolyte category. Rather than positioning itself simply as a sports hydration product, the brand combines electrolytes with phytonutrients, vitamins and Indonesian botanical ingredients. Its formula includes ingredients such as ginseng, turmeric, moringa, green tea, red ginger and noni, connecting a modern performance product with Indonesia’s long tradition of herbal wellness.
Each serving provides 480mg of sodium, 175mg of potassium and 40mg of magnesium, mixed into around 500–600ml of water. That combination is what makes Tenplus particularly interesting. The brand isn’t just selling hydration; it is trying to create a product that sits somewhere between sports nutrition and Indonesian wellness.
Tenplus says its botanical ingredients are sourced through a network of more than 200 Indonesian farmers, adding another local element to the story. The flavour range is also broader than you might expect, with Tropical Citrus, Pineapple, Mango, Sea Salt Lemonade, Orange and Mixed Berry. Pricing currently sits around Rp195,000 per pack, with individual sachets available at around Rp22,500, depending on the retailer.
HYGO – Built for Bali’s active lifestyle
If Tenplus brings Indonesian botanicals into the category, HYGO feels much more directly connected to Bali’s modern fitness community. The brand’s own story starts with the lifestyle that has become increasingly familiar on the island: padel before breakfast, Hyrox training, time at the beach, work and plenty of heat.
HYGO was created around the idea that people living this kind of active lifestyle needed something more deliberate than simply reaching for water but without the overly complicated formulas often found in sports nutrition.
Its current formula provides 1,000mg of sodium, 200mg of potassium and 60mg of magnesium per serving, with the brand emphasising a clean formulation without unnecessary additives or fillers. The flavour lineup includes Lemon Lime, Raspberry Lemon, Tropical, Orange, Pineapple and Grapefruit. A 10-pack is currently around Rp195,000, putting it at roughly Rp19,500 per serving.
But perhaps the most interesting part of HYGO’s positioning is its connection to the sports community. The brand has been visible around Bali’s growing ecosystem of sports, fitness and community events, including padel and other active-lifestyle gatherings.
HYDRTE – A more premium approach to hydration
This brand takes yet another approach. HYDRTE describes itself as “Bali’s premium electrolytes”, positioning the product firmly toward the premium end of the hydration market.
Its formula combines six electrolytes with eight vitamins and minerals, including sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, chloride and phosphorus, alongside vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C, B6, B12, zinc and selenium.
It is also positioned as zero sugar, caffeine-free and free from artificial flavours and additives. Compared with Tenplus and HYGO, the flavour range is relatively focused: Blood Orange, Strawberry Kiwi and Citrus. The pricing reflects its premium positioning. A 30-sachet multi-flavour pack is currently listed at around Rp850,000, or approximately Rp28,300 per serving. Smaller 12-sachet and sample packs are also available.
HYDRTE’s proposition is less about adding a local botanical story or building itself around a particular sports community. Instead, it focuses on the formulation itself and the idea of a more complete, premium hydration product.
re.salt – Developed in Bali, made for tropical heat
re.salt was developed in Bali after its founder experienced first-hand the challenges of staying hydrated while surfing, playing padel and working in the island’s heat.
The formula delivers 1,150mg of sodium, 200mg of potassium, 200mg of magnesium and 300mg of calcium per serving, with 0g added sugar. The brand focuses on clean, high-electrolyte hydration without the sweetness of traditional sports drinks.
Its current flavours include Pink, Orange and Pineapple Pop, with pricing starting at around Rp25,000 per sachet. The brand has also built a presence across Bali’s fitness and wellness scene, with its products available through gyms, surf camps, cafés, wellness spaces and padel clubs.
Bali’s Own Hydration Options
For an island that already has an abundance of coconuts, it might seem strange that there is room for a growing electrolyte category. But Bali’s fitness culture has evolved significantly. The island now has runners training for races, Hyrox athletes chasing faster times, padel tournaments, cycling groups, surfers, martial artists and fitness communities training year-round in a tropical climate.
And alongside the familiar international names available in Bali, there is now another option: brands created on the island itself.
LPN, Tenplus, HYGO, HYDRTE and re-salt aren’t identical products, nor are they necessarily trying to compete in exactly the same space. One brings Indonesian botanicals into the conversation, another has built itself around Bali’s active community, while another takes a more premium, formulation-focused approach. That’s what makes the category interesting. Bali isn’t just a place where people come to train, surf, run and play anymore. It’s also becoming a place where products are being created specifically for the way people live and train here.
