Resorts and beaches of Bali on the map

The best holiday resorts in Bali

Not so long ago, Kuta was a favorite haunt of hippies; now it is the most famous and lively resort in Bali. It is conveniently located (close to the airport), with developed infrastructure and good sandy beaches. There is a water park in Kuta, and 20 km from the resort there is famous temple Tanah Lot, rising majestically above the ocean.

A holiday on the beach in Kuta is perfect for young people who lead an active lifestyle and come to Bali for surfing. The spots are suitable for beginners - medium-sized waves, no dangerous reefs or rocks. During the day, the beaches are very crowded; vacationers are constantly pestered by merchants, pushing their goods and services; at night, life is in full swing in bars and clubs.

Legian is located 2 km from Kuta. It’s a little quieter there, this is a good place for young and cheerful people who prefer to relax on the beach during the day and go to noisy Kuta at night. Beyond Legian is the resort of Seminyak. These three resorts literally adjoin each other, forming a single resort area. And if Kuta and Legian offer housing at affordable prices, then Seminyak is aimed at the gilded youth. There are expensive hotels and restaurants there, and the vacation is supposed to be lazy and serene, as befits VIP tourists.

Jimbaran

A small village where the local population earns money mainly from fishing. One part of Jimbaran beach is occupied by fishing gear and boats. The other is coastal restaurants where you can try fresh seafood (they are considered the best in Bali), and expensive 5* hotels. At the resort good places for diving and snorkeling, but only wealthy people can afford a holiday here - prices are high. You can swim calmly in the southern part of the beach, protected by a cape.

Nusa Dua

Once there were mangroves here, now this is one of the best places to relax on the island of Bali. Nusa Dua has all the conditions for have a relaxing holiday: luxury hotels, golf courses, tennis courts and cycling paths.

Nusa Dua is the only Bali resort where the beaches are closed to locals, but its isolation does not allow you to get acquainted with the unique culture of the island. There are no attractions in Nusa Dua - in fact, it is a street along which hotels, cafes and excursion stands are located. If you arrived on a package deal and only want a beach holiday, then the resort will suit you. If you want to get acquainted with the culture of the island, it is better to choose another Bali resort, for example, Ubud.

Prices for accommodation and food in Nusa Dua are significantly higher than in other places on the island.

Tanjung Benoa

This developing quiet resort, which arose on the site of a fishing village, is located next to Nusa Dua. It differs from its fashionable neighbor by the presence of 3-4* hotels and loyal prices for vacations. Here beautiful beaches and international population. Different world religions coexist in Tanjung Benoa, as evidenced by the temples and mosques located next to each other.

During the day, vacationers go water skiing, surfing, snorkeling and parachuting, and in the evening they dine at one of the restaurants. Loyal price policy attracts newlyweds and married couples craving privacy.

Sanur

This is the oldest resort on the island, and its developed infrastructure makes it one of the best places to relax in Bali: there are hotels of different price categories, cafes and shops, and many well-kept tropical gardens. Holidays are cheaper than in the decent resort of Nusa Dua, but more expensive than in noisy Kuta. Most often families with children relax here, since the coast is flat and active people - calm water is conducive to snorkeling and diving. And the downside is that when the tide goes out, the water goes very far.

Sanur has ancient temples, a museum for the artist Adrien de Merpres and a large entertainment center with water slides and attractions. From Sanur it is convenient to get to the volcanoes and hot springs of Bali, and not far from the resort there is an island with giant turtles.

Ubud is cultural capital islands and the best place for those eager to get acquainted with the customs and traditions of Bali. The city is located among tropical forests in the mountainous part of Bali. There are no beaches, nightclubs or bars here, but there are many temples, souvenir shops and restaurants. Accommodation prices are affordable for any tourist.

The city has many museums, craft workshops and art galleries, where they periodically host international exhibitions. You can regularly see Balinese dance performances and music concerts.

You can buy souvenirs in the shops self made. This town is set back from the coast but is great for walking and cycling. The surrounding landscapes are picturesque - rice terraces, green hills, tropical forests and rivers. There is the famous Monkey Forest.

The best beaches in Bali for swimming

The special features of Bali are permanent waves. Most places have them, making swimming difficult. The exception is regarding calm beaches Nusa Dua and Sanur, but they also have their drawback - ebbs and flows, due to which vacationers have to adhere to a schedule. When the ocean recedes, algae and other debris remain on the sand, and the water level becomes knee-deep. When choosing a place where you will relax in Bali, pay attention to the beach and read reviews from tourists.

• In Sanur The beaches are wide and long, with shallow water off the coast. To swim, an adult needs to walk several tens of meters away, but children have a great time swimming.
• Beach Tanjung Benoa spacious and clean with fine white sand but the same tide problem as Nusa Dua.
• Fabulous sand beach in Bali you can find in Jimbaran. It is located in a small bay, shallow near the shore, the water is quite clean and calm, which makes it safe for children to swim.
• Good beach for swimming in Bali Padang-Padang. The water here is crystal clear, there are almost no strong waves near the shore. Surfers always go further away to surf, so there is no need to worry about sudden impacts from the board.
• Quite an unusual beach Pandava- perfectly clean with white sand and calm water. On its outskirts there are several caves where you can take pictures, and there are cafes along the beach, where you can rent a kayak or lie on a sun lounger.
• Glamorous beach Dreamland- one of the few bounty beaches in Bali. It is quite popular among tourists, but the waves here are high, and not everyone can swim.

The best beaches in Bali for surfing

The vast majority of Bali's surf spots are located in the south of the island within a radius of several kilometers from Kuta. During the dry season, there is always the right wave here, so safe swimming is only possible in the evening, when the waves subside and most of the athletes migrate to drinking establishments. There are fewer surfers on Bali beaches such as Legian and Seminyak, but strong waves are not conducive to swimming. The waves are even higher in Canggu and Uluwatu. These beaches are popular among experienced surfers.

In conclusion, it is worth noting that each resort and beach on the island is beautiful in its own way, and only after visiting all its corners can you determine for yourself where is the best place to relax in Bali.

Lost in the distant ocean waters is a divine island with unique flora and incredibly diverse fauna. Washed by the Indian Ocean on the south and the Pacific Ocean on the north, the island is famous for its coral reefs and endless impassable jungles, quiet secluded beaches and high waves - the dream of any surfer, active volcanoes and charming rice terraces. This is an island of the Malay archipelago - Bali.

It's good to relax everywhere in Bali. In a short time you can visit completely contrasting places in nature, color and level of service, this makes Bali even more interesting and multifaceted. Therefore, when going on vacation, be sure to explore all corners of the island and choose the place that suits your needs. We must immediately make a reservation that infrastructure, service, nature are in this fairytale corner not always suitable for a pampered tourist who prefers especially comfortable living conditions.

Let's look at the main areas for recreation and living. Let's get acquainted not only with their positive qualities, but also learn some rather piquant features.

Kuta is located in the very south of Bali and is mainly suitable for budget vacation. It will be comfortable here for those who prefer crazy parties every night in clubs and a wide variety of bars and restaurants with reasonable prices. Because even on Monday at five in the morning you can see whole lines of taxis waiting near the clubs of clients who have been on a spree.

An important detail for a comfortable stay is that everything here is located quite compactly and you can easily walk to the beach or to a cafe. In most other places you cannot do without a car or taxi services.

And here are the disadvantages. Kuta is famous for scammers who try to deceive visitors by offering to buy counterfeit gold items and exchanging them for local currency. Tourists are also annoyed by local shop traders, bike rental companies and salon masseuses.

Infrastructure.

Those who like to wander around shops with many bustling customers will also be at ease. Kuta has a large number of different shopping shops, centers and boutiques with a completely diverse range of products for every budget.

And of course, famous beach ideal for learning to surf. For Russian-speaking holidaymakers, five schools are open on the beach to teach this difficult hobby. For beginner surfers, they provide all the necessary equipment

And so, Kuta is a noisy, cheerful and very cheap resort area.

How to get there.

The journey from the airport to Kuta will only take fifteen minutes and will cost you $5.

Legian.

Legian is located very close to Kuta. If full “drive” 24 hours a day does not suit you. If you prefer to spend the night in a calm and quiet environment, then it is better to rent accommodation in Legian. This place is very similar in its conditions to its neighbor Kuta and this place certainly cannot be called quiet, but the villas here are located away from noisy discos and restaurants on quiet and cozy streets.

A modern resort with a bustling life is not an option for a person looking for solitude and silence. But you definitely won’t be bored here.

Perhaps, in order to feel and understand the real Bali, you need to make your first trip to Seminyak.

It’s impossible to even believe that just ten years ago, there were only houses of the local population and many rice terraces in this place. Now every meter of land is densely occupied by buildings. Yet, despite such active construction, the whole of Seminyak is surrounded by luxurious greenery and the air is intoxicating with its aroma.

Infrastructure.

Despite the close proximity, the decor, service and lifestyle here are a decent order of magnitude higher. There are several art galleries, clean shopping streets with famous boutiques, restaurants with gourmet cuisine and many decent clubs at your service. Neither on the beach nor on the streets are there practically any barkers who harass you by imposing their services and goods.

According to your needs and budget, you can easily find luxury hotels, villas, restaurants and spas. The price range for luxury housing here is quite wide. A hotel room can cost you from 70 to 150 dollars. For a villa you will have to pay from 80 to 280 dollars per night.

Canggu

The real Bali begins from Canggu on the southern coast. Here you will immediately see green winding rice terraces and narrow country roads surrounded by lush greenery. A traditional Balinese look that gives a feeling of comfort and complete peace.

This place combines incompatible things. It is suitable for people of any type. Here you will find quiet, deserted beaches that allow you to fully relax. And noisy, cheerful volcanic sand, where surfers enjoy spending their leisure time. If you don’t like extreme sports, then sitting comfortably in a wonderful restaurant on Eco Beach, you can watch for a long time how lovers of freedom and adrenaline confidently and beautifully catch the wave.

Infrastructure.

The infrastructure is well developed, which allows you to spend your vacation comfortably and conveniently.

Housing can be rented of any class and for any money. You can choose from guesthouses, luxury villas and hotels of different classes.

Traffic on the roads is free during the daytime. However, in the evening, when there is a lot tourist buses returning with tourists to the hotel from excursions, you can easily get stuck in a traffic jam.

This little one lost paradise will give you a lot of extraordinary impressions and give you the opportunity to plunge into the harmonious and measured life of the local population.

How to get there.

The best way to get to Canggu from the airport is by taxi. The payment will not be large, the main thing is to warn the driver to turn on the meter.

Nusa Dua.

The elite and respectable resort of Nusa Dua in Bali is located in the southern part of Bali. Its shores are washed by the warm Indian Ocean. It is the most peaceful and completely safe place for a holiday. This is a completely closed area. Upon entry, all cars are subject to strict inspection so that no one disturbs the peace and quiet of the guests.

How to get there.

The most comfortable way to get from the airport is by ordering a transfer or taking a taxi. Travel time will be 20-30 minutes.

Ubud

In the central part of the island there is a spiritual and Cultural Center Bali - Ubud. Local traditions and real age-old culture are completely concentrated in this area. Its original and unique atmosphere does not leave any guest indifferent. But in one day of an introductory tour you will not get to know this place completely. To understand it and love it with all your heart, stay there for a few days.

Nature simply amazes with its splendor and diversity. Winding and graceful slopes of rice plantations, turbulent mountain rivers and deep gorges, beautiful and high waterfalls create an unforgettable atmosphere of Ubud.

Infrastructure.

You can find there both an expensive villa and a luxury hotel, as well as budget cheap housing.

While spending time there, you can take care of your health and self-education. You can sign up for a yoga center for as many days as is convenient for you. Take a master class on spiritual practice and internal development. Learn from masters and artisans how to make silver jewelry, batik painting and cook Balinese cuisine.

The only drawback of Ubud is its great distance from the coast. Before south coast it will take about an hour and a half to get there.

How to get there.

When traveling on your own from the southern coast, keep in the direction of Sanur, and then follow the signs. You can get there by taxi for $20.

Lovina.

Located in the very north, the Lovina resort is not yet very popular among vacationers. But if you need a break from excessive communication, a huge flow of information and recharge yourself with positive energy for the whole year, then come right here.

The only drawback is, perhaps, that many beaches do not have lifeguard stations.

How to get there.

It's a 4 hour drive from the airport. It is advisable to order a transfer, and if you come here for a long time, you can rent a car.

Pemuteran.

For a secluded and even reclusive holiday, the Pemuteran region, little known not only among visitors, but also among local expats, is ideal. Surrounded by a purely Balinese atmosphere and friendly locals who are not tired of the crowds of tourists, you will fully relax from the everyday bustle and crazy rhythm of the city. A small village with several inexpensive hotels will become a real paradise for you for a while. Will add color to your vacation National Park Menjagan, located next to the village. You will get real extreme and exotic diving, which is truly wonderful here.

Infrastructure.

The infrastructure is not very well developed. There are practically no restaurants or bars here. You will not see lifeguards on the beaches and you will not be able to rent sports equipment for water activities. At your disposal only a huge bay and the gentle Indian Ocean with its magnificent underwater world. However, the hotels in Pemuterani are quite decent with good and not very expensive service.

All these inconveniences will not spoil your secluded vacation. You will find everything you need for the harmony of the soul here.

The only downside is the rather distant location from the airport (3 or 4 hours by car) and the almost complete absence of restaurants and bars.

How to get there.

You can get to Pemuteran from Gilimanuk from the southwest, spending 45 minutes on the road. From Lovina, if you drive along north coast the journey will take 2 hours. From the center, as mentioned above, you will have to spend 3-4 hours on the road. The most comfortable way to book a hotel is to arrange for a driver to meet you at the airport.

How to get to Bali

The capital's Denpasar Airport receives charter flights from Moscow, St. Petersburg, cities of the Far East and Siberia. Consequently, from any city in Russia you can fly to the island at any time with a transfer in Moscow.

There are a lot of Asians, it seemed strange - this is Asia, Malaysians and Singaporeans love this place. The music is mostly pop, at 00-00 the lights are turned off and everyone dances in complete darkness. They dance everywhere there, there is a second floor. In general, take a walk around the place itself, it will surprise you.

We move even further to the hipster area, as all tourists call it - Canguu. What's interesting there is that there is no club in its direct sense, rather it's a hangout place called OldMans, parties are held on Wednesdays, it's better to arrive around 20-00 in the evening, then there won't be so many people. The place is close to the beach, so the atmosphere is very relaxed among surfers and expats. Admission is free in all respects, you can eat, drink, find new acquaintances and have fun from the heart. Fun and heartfelt. if you are riding a bike, be careful, Canguu does not safe place, because There are many cases where they throw people off their bikes to rob them. If you go with a large group, rent a car, the driver will bring you and wait for you, this pleasure costs only 500,000 Rp.

Another similar place, but quite “old” in Bali, with the same format of parties - SingFine, is located in a remote part of the island in the Uluwatu region. Uluwatu is considered the most beautiful surf spot on the island; surfers from all over the world come here. Parties take place twice a week, on Wednesday and Sunday. All the people mostly come on Sunday, there is no specific start time, but I advise you to arrive at sunset. The sun begins to set from 17-30, and because... the place is on sheer cliff, you will see stunning views, and you will also watch how professionals ride. The largest crowd is at 9 pm. The place is imbued with romance, freedom, salty air and everyone dances until the morning. There are two ways to get there: rent a car with a driver, the cost will depend on how long you want to stay there, but will not exceed 700 Rp. Or arrive there in advance and rent an apartment that is located nearby, cost per day from 300Rp. up to 500Rp. per room.

There are plenty of similar places, but I told you about the most iconic ones. If there is enough time for parties, then on Fridays Jungle opens its doors. It is located in the Umalas area, between the Semyniak and Canguu areas. The place is located in rice fields, during the day it also works as a restaurant, and on Fridays it is mainly attended by local expats who have lived in Bali for a long time. Admission is free, open air.

Separately, I would like to highlight the Clubs, these are Jenja and Koh, entry is always paid and if in Koh the price is always fixed and is no more than 150Rp. light techno, small place and very smoky, then in Jenja the price depends on the import and can vary from 150Rp. up to 400Rp. Jenja has strict face control; men are not allowed in open shoes, shorts or T-shirts. There is a little trick, if this is a regular club evening, and not a special delivery, entry to Jenla is free until 10 pm, then you don’t need to buy a ticket, but there won’t be many people, usually everyone comes after 12 am.

And lastly, but my most secret place, which many tourists may find boring due to the lack of a special Asian drive, is Woobar. Woobar is a club located on the premises of the five-star W Hotel. The place is made specifically for residents, but anyone can come there, firstly, the hotel territory itself is very beautiful, but this place is special for me because there is always high-quality sound and, in my opinion, the best supplies for this format. Admission is free, there is no face control, but you won’t be allowed in in flip-flops or T-shirts, these are the rules. Parties are usually held on Thursdays.
