Surfers paradise at the South Bali Beaches

South Bali Beaches -- Nyang Nyang

This beach is probably the most difficult to find and to reach. However with some extra effort and determination you will be rewarded.
If you arrive at the right time of day...
Nyang Nyang beach is located just a couple of kilometers west from the Uluwatu temple. To get there just follow the sign to Pecatu and from there drive on. After several minutes keep your eyes peeled because here comes the difficult bit...

Climb down to the beach...

All of the sudden you will see (when coming from the north) a sign with 'Nyang Nyang Beach Villa Bali'. The sign takes you along a nice pathway and finally to a hotel where the security awaits you.
The staff will explain that you are allowed to go to the beach after purchasing a drink at the hotel. Well...we didn't expect that!
If you are into it, take a seat, have a drink and enjoy the magnificent view on the emerald blue ocean. If you just want to go to the beach or want to surf then you should not follow this sign...

Instead, keep on driving a little bit further and after about 10m you will see a wooden blue painted sign pointing towards a dirt road. Don't hesitate...this is the right way.

The view is worth the trip...

At first we kept on thinking about turning back, but our persistence was soon rewarded when we finally arrived at a little parking area. From there we walked towards the cliff and took in the breathtaking view over the ocean.
Way down, after descending many steps you will finally arrive at Nyang Nyang beach. It is definitely worth going down, but remember that you will have to do a hell of a job of climbing up at the end of the day.
Besides the gorgeous sunsets, Nyang Nyang beach is great for surfing. The best time to go is between March till September early in the day as low tide will soon set in and the waves will be difficult to reach...
