Seminyak beaches

Bali's west coast is made for sunsets. Petitenget Beach, the closest to the villa, runs past Pura Petitenget temple and Seminyak's beach clubs. In the late afternoon, the beach fills up for sunset.

The ocean is often strong, with currents. Swim between the lifeguard flags and follow their instructions.
