Bali is one of the best places in the world to learn how to surf. The beaches on the southern region of Bali breaks over reefs and waves form further from the beach. This gives surfers a longer time to enjoy the wave ride as they manage to get up on their boards before reaching closer to the shoreline. Finding a beach with the most favourable conditions to surf  for all proficiencies? Balangan Beach is one of them. 

Maintaining its 70s style warungs (local food stalls) on the extreme left side of the beach, the beach attracts beginners to advanced surfers from all around the world. Non-surfers and families can either sunbath on day beds with shady beach umbrellas or sit at the warung and watch surfers catch the Balangan waves. La Joya Balangan Resort is the only resort in the area that has direct access to Balangan Beach and it takes less than 3 minutes to reach the white sand beach.
