Beaches in Bali

Nusa Dua Beach is a pristine, curated stretch of white sand on Bali's southeastern Bukit Peninsula, fronting the BTDC (Bali Tourism Development Corporation) resort complex. Calm, clear waters and manicured grounds make it Bali's most family-friendly beach.

Kuta Beach is Bali's most famous stretch of sand, a wide golden-sand beach on the southwestern coast that has been drawing surfers and sun-seekers since the 1970s. Its consistent waves and spectacular sunsets remain a major draw despite heavy development.

Amed is a tranquil coastal strip in northeastern Bali comprising a series of small fishing villages along a volcanic black-sand coastline. Its calm, clear waters and accessible coral reefs make it one of Bali's best snorkeling and diving destinations.

Padang Padang Beach is a small but photogenic cove tucked beneath limestone cliffs on the Bukit Peninsula. Made famous by the film Eat Pray Love, its crystal-clear waters and dramatic cave entrance make it one of Bali's most character-filled beaches.

Dreamland Beach (New Kuta Beach) is a wide white-sand beach on the Bukit Peninsula, set beneath towering limestone cliffs. Once a secluded surfer's paradise, it now offers good waves, dramatic scenery, and a less crowded alternative to Kuta.
