First Day in Bali | Jimbaran Beach Dinner
Jimbaran is a small town located about two miles south of the Bali airport.
The airport is very close by, we can actually see aircrafts in landing position. There was even an aircraft (Lion Air) that missed the runway and instead fell off to sea. Scary. Good thing we had a smooth landing via Air Asia.
The beach lining Jimbaran Bay is one of the best in Bali, its fine white sand an absolute pleasure to walk on. The beach's location makes it an obvious epilogue to any visit to the kecak performances at the clifftop temple.
About forty to fifty seafood restaurants of varying price and quality line the shore. Our partner tour operator chose Furama for our dinner.
The dining scene in the town of Jimbaran in Bali is nothing like the fancy restaurant crowd you'll find closer to Kuta or Ubud. Instead of sitting in intimately-lit dining spaces, you'll sit on tables set right on the sand, out in the open, next to the sea.
Your dinner will be simple yet very Balinese: seafood, marinated and spiced according to the island's culinary traditions, and grilled over burning coconut husks. You'll dine in the midst of one of Bali's most romantic dining settings: sitting on the beach with the sound of the murmuring surf in the air, your meal illuminated by candles and the moonlight, penjor waving in the wind.
There were a lot of seafood restaurants in Jimbaran Beach, all of them with the same setting of arranging dinner tables facing the beach where sun sets every evening
