Everyone knows that Bali has beaches; it's one of the main reasons people travel half way across the world to visit the Island of Gods. Whether it's the exotic black volcanic beaches of the west or the soft white sand beaches in the south, there's sure to be something for every type of beach-goer.Visitors are bound to have heard of the beaches at Kuta, Nusa Dua and Sanur, but what about those that are a little harder to find, tucked away down a beaten track or nestled below secluded cliffs? Here we share some of our favorite hidden beaches in Bali... It may take a little longer to get there, but it's worth the effort!
1. Perasi Beach (Pasir Putih)
Perasi Beach is also known as "White Sand Beach" or "Virgin Beach" and is located in the Karangasem regency in East Bali. If you're looking to get away from the crowded beaches like Kuta and Sanur in the south, then this beach is for you.
No hotels, villas or any other tourist accommodations are visible from Perasi Beach, only views of Gili Biaha on the horizon. There are a couple of food stalls and shops that offer local food, snacks and beverages for visitors, and it's also possible to rent an umbrella and sun loungers for the day.
Located about 4.5 km east of Candi Dasa, Perasi Beach is about one and a half hour's drive from Denpasar. Follow the Jalan Raya Candidasa-Bugbug main road to the village of Perasi and look out for a dirt road opposite the village’s Pura Bale Agung temple that leads to the beach.
Signs may display various names such as "White Sand Beach", "Virgin Beach" or "Pasir Putih". It's then a one-kilometer drive down a bumpy track to the beach, where parking is available under shady palm trees..
2. Balangan
Balangan is a favorite hangout for surfers and is located on Bali's Bukit Peninsula, not far from the world-famous break at Uluwatu.
It's possible to spend the night at Balangan, either at one of the guesthouses on the bluff or at one of the beach shacks right on the beach. White sun umbrellas line the stretch of sand at the base of the cliffs and is the perfect place to soak up the sun while the surfers amongst you catch some waves out front ........ keep reading ........ http://bit.ly/2m0rzJm
