The beach offers a variety of breaks to suit all skill levels, from the gentle rollers of the north end to the more challenging swells at the south end.

Eat, pray, surf! Bali is a haven for those looking to unwind, rejuvenate and experience a unique blend of culture, adventure, and natural beauty. The island is known for its picturesque beaches, crystal-clear waters, and world-class surfing.
Located on the southwest coast of Bali, Kuta Beach is a popular surf spot. The 2km beach gives surfers an abundance of space to spread out. The beach break has a variety of peaks and is suitable for all levels, and it has a vibrant atmosphere, with cute boutiques, restaurants, and bars that offer a great sunset view and a place to unwind after a day of surfing.
If you prefer a much less crowded spot, then Keramas Beach on the island’s east coast is a perfect destination. The beach, covered predominantly in black volcanic sand, is located in the traditional village of Gianyar. It is far quieter and more peaceful than major hubs such as Kuta and Canggu.
Keramas is also a favourite venue for top surfing competitions in the world, such as the World Surf League’s Corona Bali Protected Surfing Championship and Red Bull Airborne. The waves here are stronger and bigger, so the beach is not recommended for beginners.
Beyond the beaches, Bali is home to a rich cultural heritage. The island is dotted with ancient temples, traditional villages, and colourful festivals reflecting Bali’s vibrant past and present. Visitors can also indulge in delicious food, made from fresh local ingredients and influenced by the island’s mix of cultures.
