Last visited May 2014. Previous visits to Jimbaran had left me underwhelmed. H5N1 overnice plenty beach but likewise much angling junk together with flotsam inward several sections. However I managed to rest in that location a few days inward May 2014 together with noticed that the consummate beach was pretty good groomed - in all probability because of the expansion of the resort together with beachside seafood eating theatre activities there. 
Jimbaran beach is a petty over 4km long merely due south of the airport. However the offset km downward to the angling hamlet breakwater (diamond placemarker) is non peculiarly atttractive together with has few activities backing the beach. The angling hamlet backs the breakwater together with due south of that is a string of beachfront seafood restaurants - 2 dozen or together with then betwixt the yellowish lines. Sari Segara resort towards the due south halt of this surface area was my digs. There is some other one-half dozen seafood restaurants mid beach. At nigh 85% due south is a bunch of one-half a dozen less expensive beachside cafe-bars. Some flash resorts arrive at upward the hillside at the far due south halt amongst rather overnice views due north to the airport. With the exception of sections straightaway following the airdrome together with some mangrove areas all the narrow isthmus behind the beach is fully built upward - mainly narrow lanes amongst local housing. 2 primary roads run north-south amongst lots of businesses. The eastern-most, the highway which runs to Nusa Dua/Tanjung Benoa, is insanely busy amongst traffic.
NORTH BEACH This is shot from the angling breakwater looking due north to the airdrome rails (click-expand to run into aircraft) - the beach doesn't await likewise bad hither but inward fact is markedly inferior to the primary beach. Close to the hamlet inward shot are a few to a greater extent than seafood restaurants together with some flash fishermen's houses - but farther due north in that location is no evolution past times monastic say of the airdrome authority.
MAIN BEACH FROM THE NORTH END It's merely over 3km from photographic television camera to due south halt of beach. First few hundred meters is packed amongst angling boats - gets pretty active belatedly inward the solar daytime when they are leaving for a night's fishing. As your incoming aircraft is on its dry out flavor glide-path to the airdrome together with you lot await downward together with run into angling boat lights one-half means to Java, it's mainly these dudes.
Behind the angling boats is a bustling petty angling village. This marketplace surface area is straightaway dorsum of the beach. We couldn't detect whatsoever tourist-standard elcheapo restaurants hither or inward the residuum of the hamlet - but in that location are plenty of eats stalls where you lot set inward an monastic say together with consume off your lap sitting on a plastic seat.
Immediately due south of the angling hamlet begins a strip of over twenty seafront sea-food restaurants. These are the southern-most 8 or so. There is also an ATM surface area inward this section. The large articulation is an abandoned 80% consummate tourist evolution across the other side of the beach road. My Sari Segara digs is the smaller peaked roof articulation merely to the right.
The beach is at its best following seafood restaurants - nicely groomed together with fifty-fifty at total tide plenty of sand. Note the H2O at Jimbaran is non pristine - the whole Seminyak-Kuta-Tuban-airport-Jimbaran strip has likewise much evolution run-off to ensure overnice clear water. Didn't notice whatsoever floating plastic bags every bit seen at Kuta - together with then that's a pace up. Wet flavor (Oct-March) visitors should annotation that this beach has prevailing winds blowing onto the shore - together with then plenty of flotsam etc at this time, addition bigger surf. The surf at our fourth dimension of see was really benign - talocrural articulation ticklers most of the fourth dimension - banking concern check the pic. Not likewise many diners inward this lunch-time shot, but.....
....things choice upward some sunset.
MID BEACH About 40% downward the beach you lot accept some other bunch of angling boats. There is no angling hamlet behind the boats - no uncertainty most of the fishermen alive amongst the other locals inward the maze of lanes together with alleys behind the beach. The beach itself is withal pretty skilful here.
Just past times the angling boats is mayhap one-half a dozen to a greater extent than seafood restaurants. I figure these are ready for guests of the rather overnice seafront resorts that start merely due south - it's nigh 20 minutes walk upward to the northern restaurants. There is an okay modest marketplace surface area ready behind the restaurants.
Heading due south from the mid-beach restaurants nosotros accept some overnice resorts backing the sand. Look for Jimbaran Puri Bali together with the Intercontinental. The beach is withal fine to start with, but....
....narrows downward from nigh the 70% mark.
SOUTH BEACH Gets existent skinny a petty farther south. Note inward this afterward depression tide shot that the high tide grade is correct upward against the dorsum of the beach. If you lot click-expand you lot volition notice some sandbags inward the banking concern - no uncertainty to protect against moisture flavor tempest moving ridge erosion.
At nigh the 85% grade begins a laid of half-dozen or to a greater extent than budget priced beach cafe/bars. By budget I don't hateful Kuta Poppie's Lane bottom budget levels, but means cheaper than the Jimbarin beachside seafood restaurants together with considerably less than Bali midrange hotel levels. This is the closest tourist grade budget nutrient nosotros could detect to our resort - it took us nigh thirty minutes to walk the beach to here. H5N1 pretty pleasant walk. Cafes seemed pop - a lot of surfer-dude types belatedly afternoon, no uncertainty calling inward on their means dorsum from Uluwatu, Padang Padang, Bingin reef or some other Bukit peninsula hell-hole.
Fellow diners cool downward betwixt courses.
Jimbaran beach from the southern end. Low tide shot shows plenty of sand but if you lot banking concern check the moisture sand correct to the seawall inward dorsum it becomes obvious in that location is no beach at highest tide. Structure behind sea wall is the FOUR SEASONS' beach lodge (there is a overnice rim puddle out of frame to left). Budget beach cafe umbrellas tin flame live seen mayhap 250m upward the beach.
The FOUR SEASONS together with several other high halt resorts arrive at upward the hillside at the southern halt of Jimbaran beach. These are really clear from means due north on Kuta beach. I've e'er wanted to rest hither - gotta create that banking concern labor first.
SARI SEGARA RESORT We wanted some where inward Jimbaran which was inexpensive, non far from the beach together with had a overnice pool. At merely nether $us40 including buffet breakfast on Agoda, across the route from both the beach together with seafood restaurants together with amongst 2 pretty overnice pools, this house seemed to fit the bill. One potential work was some scathing reports on Trip Adviser together with similar. As you lot tin flame see, this is an older Bali-style hotel. The pools were overnice places to pass fourth dimension together with inward this bigger one, swim a lap or 30. I accept no thought how skilful the rooms are inward this department (note - the transcend rooms would accept skilful beach/ocean views - those inward the far fly [northern] would also await upward the beach) - our budget room was inward a dissever block some distance behind camera.
Budget it may accept been but our room was spacious, clean, quiet, had a comfy bed, an ok bath amongst skilful hot water, an (old) tv, refrigerator together with a jug. The aircon was effective, non likewise noisy, but got a life of its ain inward the terminal half-dozen hours, cycling on together with off irrespective of the setting on the control. Free wifi didn't extend to the room, but was okay inward the eating theatre together with pool. Be careful of the tiles inward the walkways together with on stairs which larn slippery after pelting - don't enquire how I know this.
Food was interesting. The inclusive buffet breakfast couldn't jibe the 2 prior to a greater extent than expensive places nosotros stayed, but was adequate. Other meals were pretty skilful - prices were higher than the Bali budget grade nosotros tend to favour, but non over the transcend together with care past times western standards. And considerably cheaper than the beachfront seafood restaurants across the route (which are withal skilful value compared to western counterparts). Sari Segara's meals seemed fine together with the eating theatre service was excellent. As it was elsewhere inward the resort. Overall nosotros works life this a skilful value, comfortable hotel. The fact it is relatively unopen to the airdrome is a bonus, although aircraft noise was non an issue.
SUNSET. Sunset is an lawsuit amongst travelers coming from all over due south Bali to select handgrip of a seize amongst teeth every bit the golden orb sinks into the sea.
The locals seem to live attracted too..
