Places & venues in Bali

Bali's going-out scene is concentrated on the south-west coast: Seminyak, Berawa and Canggu for beach clubs, restaurants and late bars, and the Bukit peninsula (Uluwatu, Ungasan, Nusa Dua) for clifftop clubs and calmer beaches. Ubud is better for dinners than for nightlife. This page lists the beach clubs, clubs and bars, restaurants and cafés, hotels and resorts, family spots and event venues we recommend, with tips on bookings, minimum spends and getting around between areas.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area in Bali for beach clubs?

It depends on the style you want. Seminyak and Berawa have the large beachfront clubs such as Potato Head, Ku De Ta and Café del Mar. Uluwatu and Ungasan have clifftop clubs with ocean views, including Savaya, El Kabron and Sundays Beach Club. Nusa Dua is calmer and better with children, with clubs like Canna Bali and Reef Beach Club on gentle water.

Do Bali beach clubs charge an entrance fee?

Some do, often with part of the fee returned as food and drink credit. Others have free entry but set a minimum spend for daybeds and front-row seats, which is usually higher in high season. Outside food and drinks are generally not allowed and bags may be checked. Confirm current conditions with the venue before going, as they change with the season and events.

Do I need to book a beach club in Bali?

For a simple drink at the bar, usually not. For a daybed, a sunbed in the front row or a table at sunset, booking ahead is strongly advised, especially in July, August and over Christmas and New Year. Ticketed DJ nights at clubs like Savaya often cost more at the door than online.

Where to go out at night in Bali?

Canggu and Berawa have the liveliest mix of bars and clubs, from Old Man's to Atlas Super Club. Seminyak has beach bars and late clubs like Red Ruby and the Double-Six Rooftop. Uluwatu has a smaller but busy scene around Single Fin, Hatch, Tabu and Club Corazon. Ubud is mostly quiet after dinner.

Which beach clubs in Bali are good for kids?

Clubs on calm water with pools and space work best. Canna Bali in Nusa Dua has a pool, several restaurants and shallow water for paddling, and Roosterfish Beach Club on Pandawa Beach runs a Sunday family brunch. Locca Sea House in Jimbaran is also family-friendly. Some clubs, such as Tropical Temptation, are adults only.

How do I get between Canggu, Seminyak and Uluwatu at night?

Most visitors use ride-hailing apps or a private driver. Taxis and drivers are easy to find, but some areas restrict ride-hailing pick-ups, so a pre-booked driver is simpler for late returns. Avoid riding a scooter after drinking: roads are dark, traffic is heavy and police checks are frequent in the main tourist areas.
