Hidden Beaches: Discover Uluwatu’s Secret Shores in Bali

Uluwatu is renowned for its dramatic cliffs and world-class waves, but its charm doesn’t end at the iconic Uluwatu Temple or the popular beaches like Padang Padang. Hidden behind towering limestone cliffs are secret beaches that offer untouched beauty and a serene escape from the crowds. Perfect for those seeking tranquility, natural scenery, and a unique side of Bali, here are some of Uluwatu’s best hidden beaches you should add to your Bali itinerary.

1. Nyang Nyang Beach

Nicknamed Uluwatu’s “hidden paradise,” Nyang Nyang Beach features a vast stretch of white sand framed by lush green cliffs. Access can be a bit challenging—you’ll need to hike down dozens of steep steps—which keeps the crowds away even in high season. It’s ideal for a quiet picnic or simply relaxing with the sound of crashing waves all to yourself.

2. Green Bowl Beach

Named “Green Bowl” because of the green moss that covers the reef during low tide, this small beach is hidden below steep cliffs and accessed by descending over 300 concrete steps. It’s a favorite among photographers thanks to its dramatic rock caves and turquoise waters.

3. Thomas Beach

Thomas Beach has a long stretch of pristine white sand, calmer waves than many other Uluwatu surf spots, and a laid-back vibe typical of Bali’s southern shores. A few local cafes rent out sunbeds, perfect for a relaxing day under the sun.
