BALI NIGHT'S 'LIFE

BALI NIGHT’S LIFE

Bali’s nightlife is becoming more and more famous and will no doubt catch up with Bali’s surfing, diving, cultural and all-round holiday reputation very soon. Bali remains an island where the night life is improving from an already high level although you don’t have to travel far from the designated areas to get away and experience the real Bali. Bali’s nightlife in no way damages the culture and landscapes of the rest of the beautiful island and provides tourists with an excellent evening to end the perfect tropical day.

Firstly it is probably natural to begin talking about Kuta, the heart of Bali for all the party goers that come to Bali. The main Kuta area is split into to main halves that are separated by the infamous Jalan Legian (Legian street). On the beach side of Jalan Legian there are many budget accommodation areas and many small bars and restaurants each offering either a specialized menu such as Italian, Mexican, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Western or of course Indonesian cuisine as well as a selection of other dishes. The bars around this are a small and ideal for cheap drinks in the day and the beginning of the evening with lively atmosphere where surf videos are often screened or live bands and free pool add to the amusements of the guests. A short walk onto Jalan Legian will bring you up to the main super clubs, here you have a selection of big cheese, hip hop and RnB, house and trance and reggae to name a few. The atmosphere on these streets is jolly and fun often with entertainment such as professional dancers and other performances; furthermore the clubs finish at around 3 to 4 o’clock.

But the night need not end here as a short taxi ride up the main street will bring you to double six beach where there are a number of clubs that will remain open until the tropical sun rises into the next morning. There is the double six club that boasts a hard trance all night party scene, a large pool and a bungee tower located right on the beach as well as a more classic and golden oldies orientated club that is more relaxed although still lively. Double six is also host to many cafes and bars that look straight onto the beach and serve good food and offer excellent chilled out drinking.

Further up again from Legian there is the more sophisticated and refined area of Seminyak where the bars and clubs are smaller and offer a delicate and elegant nightlife including salsa and world music in the bars and also where a few more concepts are being played with in a vibrant street away from the young larger louts. For even classier nightlife there are the many bars and clubs in and around Nusa Dua and Sanur that offer refined luxury and a more intimate atmosphere. A number of Beach clubs similar to that of the double six club are also beginning to immerge but not yet spreading outside of the already touristy areas.
