Kuta Beach in Bali, Indonesia

 

On the Kuta Beach beach, people enjoy parasailing, banana boat trips or swimming. Women offer traditional Indonesian massage on the beach, others are seen plaiting hair.

Before sunset, crowds rush to the beach waiting to watch Kuta’s legendary sunsets. Then as darkness falls, Kuta’s nightlife starts to throb with loud music from bars and restaurants, while shops stay open till late at night. Kuta’s main attraction is that everyone can enjoy the town without any prescribed dress code.

Many famous international bands and celebrities have voluntarily played and sung here enlivening the fun, dance and music scene of Kuta. One poignant reminder, however, of the tragedy that befell Kuta is a monument located next to the present Paddy’s café. The monument is erected in memory of those killed during the fatal October 2002 bomb terrorist blasts. The blasts killed more than 300 people, mostly Australian tourists and Indonesian workers.

Kuta is the ultimate beach resort catering to any taste and budget. You may stay at five star hotels, or at clean “losmen” or home stays. In the hotel complex you will have privacy at the hotel’s own beach front or swimming pool, but when you stroll out you will be met with the hustle and bustle of the town centre.

 

Get Around

Moving around Kuta its very fun and simple. You can go around on foot or you can rent a bike or motorcycle.

 

Get There

There are plenty of taxis that can take you to Kuta Beach. You can rent these by the meter or by the hour. Taking your own car is not recommended as parking here is very tight.
