Beautiful and quiet beach!
Loved this beach. We had to pay 2k IDR upon arrival, which was okay. Beach was pretty empty, definitely not crowded like the one we’ve been before in Jimbaran. Had a nice walk until the far end of the beach, and we got two very comfortable beach beds for 50k IDR in total. The lady who owned the beds was extremely friendly and welcoming. We also got two coconuts for 25k IDR each. They were huge, full with nice sweet coconut water, and with a lot of coconut meat to eat. They were incredibly good. Spent the afternoon there, had an amazing sunset just in front of us. Before leaving, we paid 5k IDR to use the toilet of the nearest warung. It was clean, well kept, locked with a key so only those who pay the fee can use it. It was a great experience altogether. Plus, an amazing spot for Instagram photos!

quiet beach and not too commercial
Pantai Balangan, situated on the western part of South Bali. You can reach this place by car, they have public parking spaces. Apparently there are 2 parking spaces, one on the cliff, the other one is near the beach. The one on the cliff has a magnificent view to the ocean. You can access the beach by going down the stairs. Once at the beach you can rent beach chairs and order drinks. We had a great time at the beach as there were not too many people around and also NO street vendors. During the rainy season, a lot of debris (wood) and rubbish will wash ashore which can make the experience less fun. Please keep in mind that this is a public beach where locals are trying their best to keep the beach clean without any funding from the government. Please beware of monkeys as this arra is still considered a “wild” habitat so those wooden debris that wash ashore will come in handy to scare them away. Keep your belongings in a bag. It is a good place if you like to chase sunsets. When we left the areaa, there were a lot of people (cars, motorcycles) heading to the beach and cliff to catch the sunset.
