Pantai Nusa Dua

Kuta Information
Located in the neck of the Peninsula next to Jimbaran, Kuta is noted for being the bustling tourism heart of Bali. With its very high concentration of beachside resorts, restaurants, bars, markets and shops combined with its long sandy beach and warm waters, Kuta is a popular destination for visitors from all over the world. There are a stunning array of markets and stalls in Kuta with almost any sort of local produce available ranging from T-shirts and clothes, leather goods, woodwork and electronics to food and other refreshments. There is wide range of accommodation options from luxury resorts to backpacker type bungalows.

Kuta was originally a fishing village and was the first part of Bali that was commercialised for tourists. This sprawling area has joined up with neighboring town of Legian to the north which is a quieter area popular with expats as a place to live.

Nusa Dua di Bali merupakan tempat paling ekslusif. Disebut ekslusif karena di area ini terdapat semua hal yang dibutuhkan oleh sebuah tempat wisata, seperti pantai lengkap dengan olahraga airnya, restoran dengan menu yang lengkap dan bervariasi dan tidak ketinggalan tempat menginap atau hotel yang sangat nyaman.

Khusus untuk pantainya, pengunjung bisa menikmati paronama terbaik di Nusa Dua dengan berjalan-jalan di pantai yang menjadi bagian dari area ini. Pantai Nusa Dua sepanjang kurang lebih 5 km, dan merupakan halaman belakang dari hotel-hotel kelas dunia seperti Melia Bali Villas Spa Resort, Inna Putri Bali, Novotel Nusa Dua, dsb.

Disepanjang pantai ini, pengunjung bisa menyaksikan 2 pemandangan sekaligus yang sangat cantik. Satu sisi merupakan pemandangan lepas pantai dan garis laut yang sangat indah, satu sisi lainnya pemandangan hotel-hotel megah yang berdiri berderet disepanjang pantai. Untuk bisa menginap disalah satu hotel yang ada diarea ini, setidaknya siapkan budget lebih untuk mewujudkannya.

Disana sepanjang pantai oleh pihak pengelola sudah dibangun semacam jalan kecil bagi para pejalan kaki untuk melewatinya. Ini untuk memudahkan para pengunjung pantai menyusuri pantai. Namun sepertinya pengunjung tidak sebebas seperti yang diinginkan, karena beberapa pihak hotel tidak suka ada pengunjung diluar tamu mereka yang berkeliaran disekitar kawasan pantai mereka.
