Beaches and Water Sports

A reef offshore keeps Nusa Dua's water calm, which makes it one of the best areas in Bali for swimming with children. At low tide the water becomes very shallow and the reef can be exposed, so time your swims for mid to high tide. Geger Beach, at the southern end, is quieter and has a small temple on the headland.

Just north of the resort area, Tanjung Benoa is Bali's water-sports hub, with jet skis, parasailing, banana boats and glass-bottom boats to Turtle Island.

Getting There and Around

Nusa Dua is 20 to 30 minutes from the airport via the Bali Mandara toll road. The resort complex is gated, landscaped and walkable, with a paved beachfront path connecting the hotels. For Uluwatu, Jimbaran or Seminyak you will need a taxi or driver.

Nearby

Pura Gegar and Geger Beach for a quieter beach day.
Jimbaran Bay for sunset seafood dinners on the sand.
Uluwatu Temple and the Kecak dance, about 30 to 40 minutes away.
