Atmosphere

A secluded beach with a lagoon. Karma Beach Bali is part of Karma Kandara’s main food and beverage outlets and entertainment venues, set out as Bali’s most exclusive beach club.

Water

The waves break far from the coast. Comfortable for swimming at high tide. Be aware of some stones at sea floor. Fortunately, the water is crystal clear and calm, so you can see everything well. Great for snorkelling. Lots of various fishes, eels, crabs, and sea urchins.
