Kuta
is one of the most popular beach in Bali; you can now
find basically any surfing equipment there. As the sun
approaches the horizon, you can see lines of Balinese
approaching the beach, controlling their surf-boards
with the same gracefulness as their traditional dances,
mastering the waves and penetrating the tubes. Even
in Kuta Beach and the area around it alone there are
places for difficult surfs. It's best to talk to the
locals so you won't get into trouble.
Kuta in addition to being the Sunset Site Number One,
with its daily spectacular sunsets, it is also the centre
of night life activities in Southern Bali
and a shopping mecca, with its lines of shops, boutiques,
and galleries. Restaurants line up the streets as well
as the Bachfront,Hotels, ranging from a small, inexpensive
homestay to a luxurious resort, will ready accomodate
you.
Kuta is now a thriving tourist resort, popular mainly
among the young. It is a beach for surfing although
currents make it less suitable for swimming. Coast guards,
however, are on constant duty during the day. Kuta faces
toward the west offering beautiful sunsets.
The beach of Kuta is one of the first favorite beaches
discovered by tourist. On the south, the beach is fenced
by the airport’s runway, which gives you a breathtaking
landing experience. The beach stretches as far north
as the eyes can see. As short walk away north, waves
will invite you to test your surfing
The popular holiday areas of Kuta, Tuban (south Kuta),
Legian and Seminyak front a gentle curve of coastline
just north of the airport. Renowned for sun, surf, sunsets,
shopping and lively nightlife, Kuta and Legian are the
hive of activity - both day and night. Seminyak, a little
further to the north, offers the traveller a relaxed
pace.
