Jimbaran : fishing village and tourist resort in Bali, Indonesia

Jimbaran

Jimbaran

JimbaranJimbaran is a fishing village and tourist resort in Bali, Indonesia. Located south of Ngurah Rai International Airport, the beach has seafood restaurants and luxury hotels, including the five-star Kayumanis Private Estate & Spa, Intercontinental Hotel Bali, Ayana Resort and Spa, Four Seasons and Jimbaran Puri Bali and the casual dinning restaurant Cuca, helmed by award winning Chef Kevin Cherkas, beside the Kayumanis Private Estate & Spa. Tourism in Jimbaran has increased rapidly so that it has boosted the local economy, but was devastated by the 2005 Bali bombings when suicide bombers struck at two popular warungs along the beach. However, the tourism industry has recovered. Diners select the live seafood that they wish to eat, and it is immediately prepared, generally grilled over a fire of coconut husks rather than charcoal.
It is administered under Kuta South District along with Nusa Dua peninsula.
Jimbaran lies on the
peninsula in Bali.
