Mainly known as the Bukit Peninsula, the Bali beaches here are set along cliffs or located in little bays giving each beach a totally different character. Today the amazing waves of these beaches attract surfers from all over the world. But more other travellers who want to enjoy the stunning views and relax at the beach are discovering the beauty of the South Bali beaches too.
The most deserted of all the Bali beaches in the Bukit Peninsula are probably Green Ball and Nyang Nyang beach. In both cases there are hardly any facilities here, nor easy access. Once you arrive you need to climb down to get to the water.
Green Ball doesn't have a beach so surfers can jump straight in and swim to the waves. As for Nyang Nyang make sure you are there on time before the low tide sets in. And for both beaches remember to leave some energy left for the climb back up!
If you still want a pretty deserted beach but at the same time enjoy some food and drinks at a restaurant then Balangan is a wonderful beach to head to. Here you can find a long stretch of soft sandy beach and you can easily jump in for a swim or chill away in one of the many sea puddles. Surfers come here as well to catch the waves located further off shore.
Seeking a crowd? Then there are three options of Bali beaches which are in itself totally different. The most popular is Uluwatu beach. This cliff beach is definitely for die-hard surfers who are able to tackle the high waves. But if you can't resist jumping in the stunning azure blue water ask around to discover where it's safe to swim.
The other two South Bali beaches are Dreambeach, also known as New Kuta Beach and Padang Padang Beach. While Dreambeach has a long stretch of clean sand, sun loungers, restaurants and resorts Padang Padang is located in a tiny bay with just a Indonesian Warungs around the corner.
So as you can imagine each beach attracts a different crowd. Dreambeach Bali seems to be looking more like Kuta and Jimbaran beach. Padang Padang is very low-scale and attracts a crowd that mainly wants to sunbath on the beach while the surfers head into the water when the right waves arrive.
If you are staying in Kuta-area, Sanur or Nusa Dua it's easy to spend a day at one of the South Bali Beaches. And if you want to take it easier there are many Bali accommodations in the area from where you can enjoy the beaches to the fullest.
