Located on the isthmus south of Ngurah Rai airport and a continuation of the white sands of Kuta Beach, Jimbaran bay is one of Bali's most recently developed resort area. Tranquil compared to Kuta, it retains much of its fishing village charm. With its shallow water and lack of sharp corals, Jimbaran is ideal for families. The area also remains free from aggressive vendors.
