Double Six Beach Seminyak
Seminyak is the next district north of Kuta (about 20 minutes from the airport). Seminyak has more luxury places and upmarket choices than other destinations in Bali. Double Six itself was a name of a famous night club just beside this beach, so people named it "double six beach" (the club is now closed).
Seminyak has more quiet environment than Kuta. the inhabitants itself are more uptown and fancy than the others. lots of 5-stars hotels, fancy stores and high end spas open their branches here, trying to offers us different varieties.

it's quite relief to be at the beach, cause the traffic here is far more crazier than the other parts of Bali.
the route to Seminyak is quite complicated, you have to pass traffic jam in Legian, narrow road with no alternative and sometimes Road Block, when a Banjar (village in balinese language) holds up a ceremony. taking a taxi or cars would obviously be a bad idea. but by bikes or taking a shortcut (by walking along Kuta beach) will definitely be a great way to reach this place. actually Kuta-Seminyak-Kerobokan are in a parallel line, so having for a walk always be a great time though.
Huts along the beach |
even though the wave here isn't quite so scary, but you have to be alert, cause in some parts of this beach, there are signs of swimming prohibition. if you hesitate to swim, you can just ask lifeguards who always walk around this area. they are noticeable with their red caps, red shorts and whistles. they will lead you to safe parts of this beach. quite similar like Kuta, people always expect beautiful sunset to spend (what else?)
