Jimbaran Beach
Quote:
The beach town of Jimbaran is a little more upmarket than Kuta, but it is much quieter here, with only a few bars with loud music, no nightclubs, and less hassle.
But, no matter where you stay (we didn't stay here), be sure to come to the beach of Jimbaran at least one time. In the evening, the locals set up tables and chairs on the beach, and then the feast can start. A few beach booths open up, and you go choose from lots of fresh seafood. The people offer the catch of the day, namely clams, shrimps, fish, and even lobster or crab. They will barbecue or cook whatever you've chosen and bring it to your table with vegetables, plain rice, and some chili sauce.
The food was really excellent and the price was very reasonable (a couple...

To come here for a meal was a pleasurable experience the first time around, but the second time, wow. With the delicious seafood, the spectacle of the sun setting on the horizon, and being serenaded by a band of local musicians, what’s not to enjoy.
Jimbaran Bay has several restaurants. The best way to find the ideal one to dine at is to stroll along the front of the restaurants at a time just before sunset and see which restaurant has the most people occupying it. This is a good indication that the food here is good, although those more cautious will select a restaurant not so populated.
If you are recommended a place to dine at, contact the restaurant the day before and see if they have free transport to and from the hotel – most...

From journal Bali: Even Better the Second Time Around
Jimbaran Bay

This restaurant is set out on the beach, with tables and chairs set up in sunset-viewing position. We sipped on cocktails whilst watching the sun set. Spectacular sight. There are no menus, so we basically selected our seafood, and chefs cooked on an open flame and seasoned it with Balinese spices. Ultimate experience. Large selection of fish, prawns, calamari, lobster. Rice, chips, and veggies served with seafood. Very friendly service and very affordable.

We had never been here before, but had heard about these small seafood restaurants at Jimbaran through friends who had.
We weren't sure where we were going so we all piled into 2 taxis to take us there. When we arrived we were told to walk down to the beach front and we would find the restaurants right there on the beach front.
We were seated at a large wooden table at the first restaurant we came to, which was positioned on the sand and while we studied the menu we watched the sun go down, what a start to a great evening that had plenty of good food and good company.
We all ordered something different from the menu as we weren't sure how the food would be cooked and what it was we were actually ordering half the time, so we...

From journal Bali, You've got to love it

There is nothing like sitting with your feet in the sand on the beach and watching the sun set slowly into the ocean. Eating the local seafood that has been barbecued on open fires and washed down with an icy cold drink. There are loads of open air restaurants on the beach, pick any one, choose the fish you want and settle back and enjoy.
