Kuta beach

Bali (Indonesia)

Kuta Beach is a beach located in Kuta. The beach has been notable since early 1970s. Kuta beach is also known as Sunset Beach, as opposed to the Sunrise Beach, another name for Sanur Beach. Luxury resorts, restaurants, and clubs are located along the beach.

In 2011, a two-meter white sandstone fence, built in a Balinese architecture style, was built along the road to block the sand from blowing to the cafes and restaurants. The project costed Rp.4 billion ($0.47 million). Some tourists dislike it as it is considered blocking the beach view, while some others believe the wall help dampens the sounds from the congested traffic street. To make the beach cleaner, as of late August 2011, the vendors are prohibited to sell food at the Kuta Beach, but they are still allowed to sell beverages and souvenirs.

A lovely ambiance with this lighting, colors and silhouettes. Very well photographed. The first time I visited Kuta in 1973 there were only thatched huts at the beach, and of course no road. I probably would not recognize it anymore. But it's still very beautiful as proven by your wonderful image. "V"

Oh wie schön, ein Naturereignis das ich definitiv nie von meinem Kückenfenster aus zu sehen bekommen werde. Schöne Compo mit den Menschen und den Spiegelungen auf dem nassen Sand. Tolle Farben - wow!
