  Definetely one of the best beach for chill in Bali so far. The ambience is very calming with no rushing waves. People can also spend time during sunrise and sunset here. They have a little cute sand beach part with some rock barrier so it is so nice to swim here.

  Going to Candidasa was a mistake; the place is either under construction or abandoned. You can’t get into the ocean because of the construction site. The locals (the organization as they call themselves) don’t allow Grab and Gojek services, so you have to accept prices that are 3–4 times higher—oh well, it’s just another Balinese “success story.”
