The beach
The length of Sanur's 5km shoreline is fronted by a shady, paved esplanade. There are far
worse ways to while away a day than to wander (or cycle) down the coast in search of your
personal paradise, stopping off for lunch at the abundant warung and restaurants, then paus-
ing for a cool sunset Bintang on the return. The busy patches of beach are around the Inna
Grand Bali Beach in the north and, further south between the Sindhu Art Market and the
Tandjung Sari Hotel . The empty stetch just south of Beujimbar is the quietest. Wherever you
end up, the views are great: on a clear day, the profile of Gunung Agung soars northeast while
out to sea you might just make out the cliffs of Nusa Penida.
A huge expanse of Sanur's shore is exposed at low tide and a reef lies about 1km offshore
at high tide. This offers two mid- to high-tide surf breaks - one in front of the Inna Grand
Bali Beach hotel, another 3km south in front of the Bali Hyatt - but the currents beyond it
are strong. Still, the shallows within are fine for paddling at low tide and swimming at other
times, as well as providing a venue for numerous watersports.
