Uluwatu
Cliff-top sunsets & secret coves
Sample listingOn Bali’s southern Bukit Peninsula, Uluwatu is all cliff-top views and steep stairways down to small, sandy coves. Mornings belong to surfers and swimmers; evenings to sunset-watchers and the sea-temple on its headland.
It is a place for long, slow days: a swim at low tide, a nap in the shade, and dinner with your toes in the sand.
Local highlights
- Pura Luhur Uluwatu, the sea temple on the cliff
- Padang Padang and Bingin beaches
- World-renowned reef breaks for experienced surfers
- Sunset from the cliff-top cafés
