Seminyak is just north of Legian and Kuta,
so it’s easy to explore these areas into part
of your day. You could also head north
to Canggu for the delicious food, beaches,
or bike rides through the rice terraces
(although this is probably best done
when staying in Canggu). Another option is

shopping, check out our favourite ten stores The Lawn (Canggu)

CANGGU
- Canggu is the sort-of-new-kid-on-the-block.
It’s yet to be tainted by tourists and serves
as more a hipster meets surfer escape.
We’re talking very cool, low-key beachfront
bars with great music playing as the

is to immerse yourself in this low-key vibe, Old Man’s (Canggu)

- Canggu, perched on Bali’s west coast, lies
a short drive north of the busy tourist towns
of Seminyak and Kuta. Thanks to miles of
undeveloped beachfront, unending stretches
of rice paddies, and a laid-back population
of expats, it feels worlds away. The village’s
restaurants and shops reflect the eclectic,
bohemian vibe.

5 July 2018, Thursday Gunung Payung Beach

Uluwatu Beach Hopping

-probably need to hire a driver

beaches-visit-around-uluwatu-bali/

https://www.journeyera.com/nyang-nyang-
beach/

http://thespicerouteend.com/best-beaches-
in-uluwatu/

-Gunung Payung, also known as Secret Beach, is the

epitome of a picture-perfect, postcard paradise. In fact, we
were a little hesitant to include this in our roundup, since
we’d like to keep this little treasure to ourselves. Alas, we
can’t keep this gem a secret. Think powder white sands,
warm tropical waters that are as flat as a duck pond at low-
tide, and if you’re lucky, not another human in sight. This
beach isn’t for the faint-hearted though. It’s a 301 step trek
up and down [we counted] and once you’re down there,
there’s no restaurants for refreshment or shady sun beds,
just one local guy who sometimes has a cool-box with cold
water and Cokes, and if he’s feeling strong enough, will
also bring his single sun bed and umbrella down from the
top carpark for the day for hire. It’s well worth it though, just
don’t forget to hydrate.
Pandawa Beach

Green Bowl Beach

- after a steep 250 steps totaling 75 metres down, you will

be rewarded with this secluded strip of sand framed by two
large limestone caves. Named after the colour of the cliffs
surrounding the beach and the emerald hues which glisten
off the algae covered rocks in the water, Green Bowl is the
perfect place to have a more intimate beach day at one of
the best beaches in Bali. Keep an eye out for bats in the
caves and keep your belongings together – you might
come across cheeky monkeys!

Nyang Nyang Beach

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Balangan Beach

- Located in the South of Bali on the Bukit Peninsula,

Balangan Beach is best known amongst the island’s
surfing crowds and those looking for a laid back beach
experience without the throng of touristic beach clubs.
Ocean babies can enjoy the aquamarine waters at high
tide, and sunbathers can lie beneath the many loungers
and umbrellas that line the sandy beach. This quiet strip is
still fairly underdeveloped with just a few local warungs
[little wooden shacks serving home-cooked Indonesian
food and icy cold Bintangs], and since it’s blessed with
awesome waves for both beginners and pros, Balangan is
for the surfy, backpacker types who prefer cool tropical
vibes over a pumping party scene.

Bingin Beach

- Look out for the signs made of recycled wood, or follow

the small groups of Bali’s cool crowds with surf boards in-
hand and the lack of shoes or sandals on their feet. Bingin
Beach is a boho hideaway that’s hard to find unless you
know where you’re going, or who to follow. With perfect
waves and small sandy coves for swimming at low tide, this
cliff-base beach is a favourite for Bali’s sun soakers and
surfers. You’ll need to be relatively fit to get to and from the
beach [there are uneven, rocky steps from the top of the
cliff to the sands], but your efforts will certainly be
rewarded. Dozens of affordable beach stays line the
cliffside, too, making this a good spot for budget trips or
just a good old, no-frills sunset Bintang on a blanket. There
are some great healthy cafes here too, perfect for a post-
surf refuel and insta-ready sunsets

Padang Padang
- You might recognise this beautiful bay from the ever-
famous “Eat, Pray, Love” movie, where Julia Roberts falls
head over heels for her Brazilian hunk. Chances are, you’ll
fall in love here too, not only with the bronzed surfer
 crowds, but with the calm cove-like waters rolling off the
bright white bay, framed by dramatic rock formations
and bordered by world-class waves. Though Padang
Padang is a relatively small beach about 10 minutes north
of Uluwatu, the setting is simply stunning. The best time to
visit is early in the morning around sunrise when you can
see Padang Padang in all its dazzling, natural glory, and
before the throng of visitors descend on this spot in the
hope of spotting Ms Roberts.

Suluban Beach
- This dreamy destination might well be directly below the
famous and bustling Single Fin bar and the main access
point to the world-renowned Uluwatu surf break, but come
low tide, this spot at Suluban Beach is a true hidden
treasure, and the best for a secret swim. Set against
stunning dramatic cliffs, the water here is as turquoise as it
gets. To access this little piece of paradise, you’ll need to
walk down the steps at Uluwatu, through the caves and
onto the sand. Remember, when it’s high tide this
swimming spot is inaccessible, so you’ll need to check the
tide times for your trip here, and don’t forget to pack your
bathers.

Potato Head Beach Club (Seminyak)

SEMINYAK/CANGGU/KUTA

https://thehoneycombers.com/bali/seminyak-
guide-where-to-eat-stay-shop-spa-bali/

-party, bakes, shots!

-You can’t say you’ve been to Bali if you haven’t watched
the sun go down at this iconic, glamarama beach-front
venue for the masses. Step into the Colosseum-esque
building of Potato Head Beach Club and you’ll understand
why this proudly Indonesian brand has become such a star
in Bali. Multiple restaurants, a swanky beachfront
bar and an infinity pool with fab views of the sparkling
Indian Ocean. It’s the playground combo nobody can
resist.

KuDeTa (Seminyak)
-party, bakes, shots!
-Seminyak’s original beach club, and still a place of
beautiful people and groovy, sunset vibes. This luxe,
original beachfront venue (KDT to those in the
know) remains one of Seminyak’s top places to see and be
seen for sunset drinks. Famous for its themed parties, the
club house day beds, a trendy restaurant and exceptional
food. Soak in the buzzin’ vibes while you sip and snap the
afternoon away on a poolside bed. Top tip – glamour girls,
make a reservation the day before so you don’t wear out
those fab strappy heels (or sandals) while waiting in line.

La Favela (Seminyak)

-party, bakes, shots!

- Bali may have a ton of good after-dark clubs but many of
them sadly lack soul or style. Enter La Favela – an eclectic
bar and restaurant unlike its other glittering counterparts.
Its décor counteracts its name (meaning Brazillian slum),
where antique furniture lines its floors, plants seem to be
(artfully) overgrown and even old bikes and a Volkswagen
van rounds off the appearance. Oh, and more beautiful
people than at a Victoria Secret’s casting. The weekend
parties here are legendary affairs – almost like fun
houseparties even. Highly, highly recommended. Get
there

Motel Mexicola (Seminyak)

-Motel Mexicola is without doubt the hottest hombre on the
Seminyak block. Everybody loves the 1960s Acupulco retro
stylin’ at this mexican-inspired party pad of bright neon and
tasty delights – the wall murals are divine and the food
is muy delicioso. Chef Steven Skelly is the real deal and he
serves up some tasty traditional Mexican food designed to
share with your crew. You’ll think you’ve gone to tequila
heaven when you check out the bar [uno, dos, tres…
VAMOS!] But us, we especially love the tunes and getting
our groove on the dance floor after dinner – margarita in
hand, gracias!

La Plancha Bar & Restaurant (Seminyak)

-The original boho-beanbag beach bar, La Plancha sets

the standard for casual sunsets under those iconic
Balinese style brollies. Superb cocktails and a tapas style
menu mean you’ll probably end up lounging long after
sunset. And if you do, it doesn’t matter because the party
usually goes on ’til late.

Poppies Lane (Kuta)

Jimbaran (for sunset/dinner, famous for seafood

restaurants)
-30mins to 1 hour away from Seminyak depending on
