Jimbaran

Jimbaran Bali is between Kuta and the Bukit Peninsula, with Nusa Dua to the southeast and Uluwatu to the southwest. The bay itself has a pleasant white sand beach and is very safe for swimming. The three clusters of grilled seafood restaurants on the beach are a major tourist draw in the evenings, as is the truly stunning sunset. Jimbaran has an increasing number of rather chic shops but there is little or no nightlife here. It has the advantage of being a little closer to Kuta and Seminyak and the cultural highlights of Central Bali.

However, the tourism industry has recovered and it is quite common now to find the village packed with tour buses. It is both a sanctuary and an island of wonder, as it is also rich with culture and history, providing the perfect balance between relaxation and exploration. It is administered under Kuta South District along with Nusa Dua peninsula. Jimbaran lies on the 'neck' of the southern peninsula in Bali and is widely known for the fresh seafood kiosks that are scattered along the beach. Diners select the live seafood that they wish to eat, and it is immediately prepared, generally grilled over a fire of coconut husks rather than charcoal. [Jimbaran wikipedia Articles]
