Soka Beach
Located in the Uluwatu area, Soka Beach is a less-crowded alternative to the nearby popular beaches known for overlooking the more famous surf breaks in the region. Its volcanic black sand and powerful waves attract surfers seeking a challenge, or those looking to lounge on the sandy shores fringed with impressive boulders.
Pemutih Beach
Another underrated Uluwatu beach, this small golden slice of coastline encircled by luxury Bali beach resorts, is a hidden gem on the Bukit Peninsula. Surrounded by pebbles and rock clusters, Pemutih offers a serene escape with opportunities for snorkelling and swimming, right at the doorstep of Anantara Uluwatu Bali Resort.
