Bali's original party strip: a broad sandy sweep of surf schools, sunset crowds and loud nightlife.

Groomed white sand and reef-calmed shallows front the big resorts, easy for toddlers to paddle.

A long crescent of pale sand where fishing boats land and grilled-seafood tables fill up at dusk.

Nearly a kilometre of pale sand under limestone cliffs, with warungs facing a fiery west sunset.

A hidden pocket of sand below a cliff stacked with guesthouses, low tide baring a reef to explore.

A tiny white cove reached through a cliff crevice and cave, fronting a world-class surf break.
