10 Beaches You Must Visit During Your Stay in Bali

Because a trip to Bali without visiting its beaches just isn’t complete!

Bali is an island full of endless reasons to explore. Beyond its rich culture and warm hospitality, Bali boasts some of the most breathtaking natural beauty—especially its beaches. From the southern tip to the northeast coast, every corner offers a unique and captivating shoreline. Whether you’re a sunset chaser, a wave hunter seeking the perfect surf, or just someone wanting to relax under a beach umbrella sipping fresh coconut water, Bali has it all. That’s why many travelers say, your Bali trip isn’t complete until you’ve set foot on its beaches. As a guest at Aviator Bali, we want to make sure you don’t miss the best side of the island. Because we believe a holiday isn’t just about a comfortable bed, but about the adventures that set you free. So, let’s Fly Your Life by exploring the 10 most beautiful beaches in Bali you simply must visit!

Melasti & Pandawa

Start your beach journey by visiting two of the most famous beaches in South Bali: Melasti Beach and Pandawa Beach. Both are located in the Ungasan area and offer stunning limestone cliffs contrasting beautifully with the bright blue ocean below. Melasti Beach is known for its winding access road through cliffs, making it an Instagram-worthy spot with a relaxing vibe perfect for chilling or splashing in the water. Meanwhile, Pandawa Beach was once called the “secret beach” because it was hidden behind cliffs before opening to the public. Now, it’s a favorite family destination with playgrounds, canoe rentals, and local warungs lining the shore. The waves are gentle, making it safe for kids or anyone wanting a calm swim. Both beaches are easily accessible from our hotel, and you can plan visits in the morning or late afternoon to avoid the midday heat.

Nusa Dua & Jimbaran

If you’re looking for a peaceful beach with a more upscale resort vibe, Nusa Dua Beach is an excellent choice. Just about 30 minutes from Aviator Bali, this beach offers clean white sand, calm waves, and is perfect for families or couples seeking a relaxing getaway. Not far from there is Jimbaran Beach, long known as the best spot for enjoying seafood while watching the sunset. Dining tables set right on the sand, a romantic atmosphere, and the enticing aroma of grilled fish make dinner at Jimbaran an unforgettable experience. Besides the delicious food, Jimbaran is also great for a laid-back afternoon without the crowds. These two beaches showcase Bali’s luxurious and comfortable side—and of course, we’re happy to arrange transportation so you can explore hassle-free without driving yourself.

Padang Padang & Suluban

For those who love hidden gems and exotic vibes, try visiting Padang Padang Beach and Suluban Beach in Uluwatu. Padang Padang is unique for its access via a narrow staircase between rocky cliffs. Once you arrive, you’ll be greeted by fine white sand and waves perfect for swimming or surfing. The atmosphere tends to be peaceful in the morning, ideal for some quiet time or photography. On the other hand, Suluban Beach—also called Blue Point—is better suited for adventurers. To reach the shoreline, you’ll descend steps and walk through natural rock caves. There, you can sit on large rocks and watch huge waves crash while surfers challenge the breakers. The wild yet stunning scene is perfect if you want to experience a different side of Bali’s beaches.

Sanur & Amed

If you prefer calm and less crowded beaches, Sanur Beach and Amed Beach are great options. Sanur, located on the eastern side of Denpasar, is famous for its jogging and cycling paths along the coast. It’s the best place to catch a sunrise while enjoying a relaxed stroll or breakfast by the sea. Meanwhile, Amed, located on Bali’s eastern tip, offers a very different experience. Its black volcanic sand contrasts with crystal-clear calm waters—ideal for snorkeling and diving. Amed’s highlight is the Japanese shipwreck beneath the surface, a fascinating underwater site to explore. These beaches are a bit farther from central Bali but absolutely worth the trip. And of course, if you’d rather not drive yourself, Aviator Bali can arrange an affordable tour to take you there comfortably.

Virgin Beach & Kelingking

For those seeking something truly off the beaten path, Virgin Beach (Perasi) and Kelingking Beach in Nusa Penida are must-visits. Virgin Beach in Karangasem is known as one of Bali’s most pristine and untouched beaches. Its white sands and peaceful surroundings offer a perfect escape from the tourist crowds. Kelingking Beach, on the other hand, has become an iconic Bali landmark thanks to its cliff shaped like a dinosaur’s head. While the hike down is challenging, the view from the top is absolutely spectacular and highly Instagrammable. Both beaches require some land and sea travel, and if you want a stress-free experience, just reach out to our team—we’ll gladly arrange everything for you.
