Formerly,
the beach was a relatively quiet area. Its image has improved
dramatically with the opening of the beautiful Four Season's Resort
and the Inter-Continental. From a sleepy cove then in the last
couple of years, it has become even busier still with grilled
seafood restaurants going up at a rapid pace along the beach,
attracting local families and tourists in droves.
A popular spot for windsurfing and sailing small craft, which
are available for rent, Jimbaran's grey sand and calm waters are
attracting more people but the beach still has a sleepy feeling.
A day at Jimbaran is made even more popular because of the all
the wonderful options to eat. Choose from simple local food, the
freshest fish or 5-star luxury. It is also a popular spot for
sunset.
On the west, Jimbaran Beach faces the Jimbaran Bay, recently lined
by new luxurious resorts. On the east, the beach faces the body
of water sheltered by Benoa Harbor.
