The central beach of Kuta is more suitable for walking along the ocean, relaxing on sun loungers and inflatable chairs, meeting beautiful sunsets and surfing than for swimming.
It is important to consider that:
* Strong waves and constant tides on the beach 🌊
* There is a lot of trade and services offered (hairpins, bracelets, braiding).
* There is no way to wash your feet at the exit from the beach.
* Strong bike and car traffic. (But there is a patrol inspector at the main entrance to the beach, he stops traffic at the sight of tourists)
Several entrances to the beach are decorated in traditional Balinese style in the form of split gates, there is a beautiful temple and developed infrastructure nearby (cafes, restaurants, shops, exchangers, a large BeachWalk shopping center) Traditional Balinese rituals are held on the beach and you can often see fishermen - very colorful!
It's not a beach, it's a waste dump. You can't swim there. There is a garbage dump all along the sandy beach, and all this is moving with the tides to the ocean and back to the beach. There is garbage and huge logs floating in the water, and garbage in huge quantities on the sand. But if you like to relax in a landfill, then local sellers will clear a piece of a meter by meter for you and put a high chair or a chaise longue and bring drinks. If you like it that way, then you're welcome. I think this beach should be closed due to unsanitary conditions. As of December 2024.
