Why I think Kuta in Bali is a nice place for backpackers?

Picture
​ME.TALK - I already can't count how many times I've been to Bali, the paradise island in Indonesia. I think I've been to almost every important place in Bali and each time I have to admit to myself that Kuta remains my favourite. And why it's like that?

​I like that everything is within walking distance and I don't need transportation to get around in Kuta. It's very easy to find at afforfable prices a lot of local food and nice places to sleep, with a swimming pool, in the heart of Kuta. In a few steps I can go from my hotel to the beach and watch the sunset while enjoying a beer. As a backpacker with a small budget, Kuta is perfect for me.

​Kuta is a popular tourist destination in Bali in Indonesia. It's located on the western coast of the island and is known for its long stretches of sandy beaches, lively nightlife, and shopping. Kuta Beach is a popular spot for surfing and sunbathing. The main street in Kuta is Jalan Legian and have many shops, restaurants and bars. The area also has many budget-friendly accommodation options, making it a popular choice for backpackers and budget travellers.
​The beach stretches for several kilometres. It's a popular spot for swimming, sunbathing, and surfing, with surf schools and rental shops located nearby. Next to the beach there are many beachside bars, restaurants, and beach clubs, which provide a lively atmosphere and a selection of places to eat and entertainment.

​Jalan Legian runs parallel to the famous Kuta Beach and it's a popular street for tourists and local people. The street has a wide selection of shops, dining and entertainment bars. Tourists can find anything from street vendors selling souvenirs and local crafts to local brand shops.
​Restaurants and cafes on Jalan Legian offer a variety of cuisines, from traditional Balinese dishes to international options. This street is also known for its nightlife, with many bars and clubs staying open late.

"It's a great place to feel the vibrant atmosphere of Kuta."

​Its is one of the busiest streets in Kuta, especially during tourist season. This is a great place to feel the vibrant atmosphere of Kuta and experience Balinese culture.
​The history of Kuta goes back to the early 20th century, when it was a small fishing village. It was only in the 1970s that Kuta began to develop as a tourist destination. Kuta's long stretch of sandy beach and great surfing conditions attract backpackers and surfers from all over the world. As more people visited Kuta, local businesses grew for the needs of these tourists. Hotels, restaurants and shops began to open, and Kuta began to develop into the bustling tourist destination it's today.

​You can also go to Seminyak. This upscale neighborhood, located just north of Kuta, is known for its trendy boutiques, luxury resorts and fine dining restaurants. I can advice you go in the evening to the Double Six Beach in Seminyak. It's a nice place to grab a beer and listening to live music.
​If you like shopping, Kuta also has several large shopping centres featuring a wide variety of shops, restaurants, and entertainment options.

​And north out of Kuta you can go to the Tanah Lot Temple. This iconic Hindu temple sits on a rocky outcrop in the sea and is a popular place to view the sunset. Another temple south out of Kuta is the Uluwatu Temple. This ancient Hindu temple sits on a cliff overlooking the sea and is known for its stunning architecture and beautiful sunset views.
​Kuta may be a bustling tourist destination, but its unique blend of stunning beaches, vibrant culture, and welcoming spirit make it a truly unforgettable place to experience the magic of Bali.
