Kuta Beach Nightlife

Party central. Kuta at night refers to the area extending about 7km north of the original village of Kuta. This area now includes Legian, Seminyak and even Basangkasa.

The Kuta area is the epicenter of Bali's nightlife. The majority of Bali's better entertainment places offer anything and everything a 'night owl' would want. Located at the center of the original village are Kuta's many open-air pubs and discos.

Entrance to bars is usually free with special drinks promotions and Happy Hours from 6pm to 9pm, and sometimes even longer. Jalan Legian and Jalan Padma have the biggest concentration of watering holes.

Take up the option of joining surfers to guzzle beer, play pool and watch surfing videos at Tubes Café. Or drop by the eye-catching and uniquely sailship-shaped Bounty Restaurant I, which sways to the music of its dance floor till dawn. Other happening outlets in town are the trendy 66 Club (but say 'double six'), terrific Goa 201 Pub Restaurant and hyper chic Gado Gado.

For Kuta's magnetic live music, The Maccaroni Club is irresistible. One of Bali's latest and most extraordinary, this place jazzes it up every Sunday from 10.30pm and invites guests to jam along on Friday nights.

For a rare and special combination of Balinese dancing and rock bands near the beach, head straight for the Zero Six in Tuban; while the new Hard Rock Café draws the crowds with live music and pricey drinks.

Other live music spots include the Aussie-style 'pubs' along Jalan Melasti and the semi-submerged Joni Sunken Bar & Restaurant. Classier up-market hotels like the Bali Padma Hotel on Legian Beach offer more relaxed entertainment.

Bali Rave,s and bad sex

It is perhaps ironic that Bali is often reported and generally perceived to be a safe place for women to travel to without fear of being raped. Although Bali is possibly safer than some other countries for western women to visit, it is hardly “safe”. One only has to visit the Bali Paradise web site to see this, as it carries a prominent account of a recent rape in Sanur, plus advice on what a woman should do during and after being raped. Although we believe western women getting raped in Bali is less likely because Bali’s rapists are the most cowardly kind, child rapists, and perhaps too cowardly to risk confronting a healthy adult with their bad intent.

It is in Indonesia’s unfortunate culture that this all comes from. Even to this day, neighboring Java has areas where child marriages (normally the girl is well under the legal age of 18, not the man), that involves children from 11 to 16 years old, accounting for 15% to 16% of the marriages performed in those areas, including East Java, a short ferry trip to Bali away. In fact, it is almost certain most of the “massage” girls found on Sanur Beach and the girls plying the western tourist clubs and pubs of Kuta and Legian come from Java and were married as young as 11 years old to an older man who then put them to work in Bali. Don’t forget, Muslim men can legally marry 3 women (including girls) in Indonesia as long as they can afford that many. Of course any man can afford 3 wives if he actually ends up making money from them as their pimp.

This nasty culture, where foreign male tourists come alone or in groups to Bali for sex with young boys and girls is clearly widespread. The case of an Australian teacher working in Bali paying young boys as little as US$1.50 each per time to have sex with him made the headlines recently, but the culture is indigenous, not imported. Perhaps the only reason this person got caught and made the headlines is because he was a registered child offender in Australia. The Sydney Morning Herald stated that corrupt law enforcement officials and low or it seems non-existent arrest rates are the reasons foreign pedophiles are increasingly targeting the island. These sorts of crimes rarely get reported, but if they do the police almost certainly can be bought. And the practice of older men plying for sex with minors is widespread in Bali. You only have to talk to young Balinese women to find out about how some teachers regularly made moves on them when they were as young as 11, and how they have to be so careful when on their own to avoid being raped to understand this. Of course, with the Indonesian stance and public views on homosexuality, you are unlikely to get quite so much candor from young men.

Then there are those particularly nasty accounts of young children on holiday in Bali who allegedly are raped or otherwise forced to perform sexual acts upon their adult child care supervisors[sic]. There are two recent reported cases involving alleged rape / sexual abuse of children whose parents had left them in the care of crèches in 5 star hotels in Nusa Dua. One 3 year old girl contracted gonorrhea, one 5 year boy is alleged to have been forced to perform oral sex on his male adult supervisor. The hotel involved in the 3 year old girl affair settled out of court without admitting liability, the 5 year old boy case is still going on. Now these are reported incidents. Like rapes, how many other incidents are likely given the fact that most parents would want to keep such crimes quiet? And isn’t it even more frightening that these cases happened in Bali’s supposed top luxury hotels? What goes on in other hotels where security and screening maybe even worse?

It seems clear that many men go to and even live in Bali to exploit the economic victim sex scene. Whether that be a western “expat” having one or more young girls exclusively tend to their selfish needs in return for a “salary”, or whether that is a western male tourist simply picking up and paying for a young girl to stay the night with him. It clearly goes on and is accepted. We have seen a recent email from the Hard Rock Hotel to a potential guest (male) explaining what procedure (registration) he would need to do in order to bring a local girl from the Hard Rock Café to his hotel room. The Hard Rock Café is well known as somewhere young “kupu kupu malams” (night butterflies) operate; see, they even have a delicate polite name for prostitutes in Bali to try and make such a terrible and illegal act somehow acceptable.

Bali is also famous for female sex tourists as well, with the expression “Kuta Cowboys” referring to local boys who are willing to “date” older western women for financial favours. In fact, many are very aggressive in their pitches to apparently single female tourists. And all of this in a country where kissing on the lips in public is illegal! But of course the real problem is not the law, but rather the law enforcement officers who are only in their uniform in order to extort money from people. They are clearly so inept in fighting crime as it is a commonly held belief that the only criminal investigations conducted in Bali are ones where someone has made a complaint, most often for the wrong reasons, and that a Balinese police officer would not recognize a criminal act otherwise less it were to slap them in the face! It seems the only time the police act as public servants in Bali is when other authorities and the media are involved. And it shows how badly they do this when you consider the Schapelle Corby case, where police officers destroyed any chance of finger print evidence when they all actually handled the bags of drugs Ms. Corby was alleged to have tried to smuggle in with their bare hands.

So, as long as you keep your nose clean and / or have enough money to buy yourself out of trouble with the police in the rare event they do become involved, Bali is the perfect sex tourist destination it seems. Which is why it is so important for decent people, not out to abuse children, or even risk their own children being abused, to help the Balinese stop these acts being committed on their island and against their own children. But, unfortunately, until the Balinese police force stop apparently working solely to line their pockets through extortion will this ever become possible. Unfortunately, as corruption clearly goes right to the top and while decent tourists still come into Bali, there seems to be little motivation for the Indonesian authorities to truly do anything about this.

Think of it this way; as long as regular tourists come to Bali, the Indonesian government is happy. But because of corruption, poverty exists in Bali and other islands when it really need not (see our report: Indonesian Corruption, the cost). Corruption goes all the way in Indonesia to the very top, so fighting corruption is self-defeating for the people at the top of the ladder. This corruption enforced poverty forces many children into the sex trade business to one degree or another. What will it take to stop the corruption and with it the crime, including child rape which is rife on Bali? Unfortunately it will take motivation, and the only motivation we believe strong enough is for decent people to boycott Bali, and to tell the Indonesian government that they are doing it and why. It seems only if Indonesia’s third largest industry, tourism, is under threat will they sit up and take notice. We suggest you email Bali’s Tourism Board (info@bali-tourism-board.com), the government of Bali (pemprop@bali.go.id), Bali’s Tourist Authority (webmaster@balitourismauthority.net), Indonesia’s Department of Tourism and Culture (pusdatin@budpar.go.id) and finally Indonesia’s Corruption Reduction Commission (pengaduan@kpk.go.id) and tell them why you are going somewhere else on holiday or to invest. Wow, yes, so many officials; seems like a case of jobs for the boys! Please also note, we do not believe the corruption commission is a real, effective one (see our report: Indonesian Corruption Commission), but at least they have the president’s ear.

If you think that boycotting Bali will hurt the very people you want to help, think again. After the October 2002 bombings, apart from the nasty commercial travel & tour agent hacks on the island blaming foreign governments for their subsequent woes (let us not forget that), many people reported that no-one on Bali would starve if the tourists stayed away. Sure, hotel workers would have to go back to the rice fields, but many Balinese said that Bali would probably become Bali again. And if boycotting Bali’s tourism makes the government sit up, take note and actually act as it should, you can imagine what sort of future Bali’s young would then have in terms of living in a decent environment with a legitimate police force protecting it, not destroying it. Also, economically in just 10 years, the Balinese could have the same standard of living as you (see our report based on data from the International Monetary Fund and Transparency International: Indonesian Corruption Costs to understand why). If you say it is the people who boycott Bali who are hurting the Balinese, it is actually you that is doing them the real harm by feeding the system that abuses them.

By the way, just for the record. We got our picture of a night butterfly on what is a clearly just used bed in Bali from a web site offering sex tours to the island, which does not have a copyright notice. We did not take the picture ourselves. And yes, how happy she looks[sic].

Bali Night

BALI AFTER DARK

Night life in Bali starts late, which means around midnight. Many visitors wonder where crowds of expats suddenly come from around 1:00 in the morning – even when all of Kuta has been very quiet during the whole evening, the IN-places often become crowded after midnight.

There's a simple explanation: during the early evenings many of Bali's night owls either still work, visit friends at home, or simply sleep. Most of them visit pubs, bars, or discos only in the early morning hours. Therefore, if you plan a night out don't start your dinner too early. Between 9:00 p.m. and midnight there are not many places we can recommend.

Visitors looking for company don't need to worry. Wherever you go in Sanur and the Kuta area, there are many other single travellers with the same problem around – day and night. In Bali's discos you'll meet also many "kupu kupu malams" ("night butterflies" or working girls) and young boys who compete with the females and service all sexes. All taxi drivers know the more popular karaoke bars and massage parlours in Kuta and Denpasar, and the various "Houses of ill Repute" in Sanur's narrow back lanes.

As reported in the BALI travel FORUM: "Prostitution is illegal in Bali. However, like in many countries, everyone turns a blind eye. Many girls can be found in nightclubs and bars in most areas. They look usually just like the girl next door, albeit with a bit more make up on, and they usually dress to please the eye. For the most part, they are gentle, easy to be with, and a lot of fun if you want to dance, drink and have a little fun with. Most will be yours for the whole night for about 300,000 Rupiah although prices range from 100,000 Rupiah to 1,000,000 Rupiah and more – depending on the season, the time of night, the situation and the quality of service".

SANUR & NUSA DUA

Some quite popular places in Sanur are the BORNEO PUB on Jalan Danau Tamblingan and the TROPHY PUB in front of the Sanur Beach Hotel. Both, however, close around 1:00 a.m.

The JAZZ GRILLE, located at the Komplek Pertokoan Sanur Raya No. 15/16 at the By-Pass opposite the Radisson hotel, was opened in February 1999 and attracts tourists and locals alike with live bands (from 9:30 to 12:00 p.m.), a smallish menu, and a billiard table upstairs. KAFE WAYANG in the same building has life music with a good local band and jam sessions with foreign guests every Friday – no wonder it's very popular with many residents. JANGER is currently the only disco in Sanur. Most tourists and even the expats living in Sanur prefer to go to "Kuta" if they look for some fun.

The discos and pubs in Nusa Dua's 5-star hotels are often rather empty. They are mostly frequented by those visitors who stay in-house and are too tired to make the 30 minutes drive to Kuta.

THE "KUTA" AREA

Everybody looking for some action and fun in the evening goes to "Kuta" which nowadays means the area extending about 4 miles or 7 kilometers North from the original village of Kuta and includes now Legian, Seminyak and even Basangkasa. Here are most of the better entertainment places offering EVERYTHING single male or female visitors as well as couples might be looking for.

There are several places such as CASABLANCA etc. – down-market open-air pubs and very noisy discos full of stoned Aussies courting Javanese "Kupu Kupu Malams". PEANUTS Discotheque on Jalan Raya Legian at the Jalan Melasti corner (about the border between Kuta and Legian) has been re-opened very soon after it was gutted by a fire. The huge (air-conditioned) dance floor is often crowded, guests are a mix of locals and younger foreign visitors.

Closer to the center of Kuta you find the BOUNTY SHIP with a noisy, over-air-conditioned disco in the basement and the re-built PADDY'S not far from the original PADDY'S. Much more "IN" nowadays is the newer M-BAR-GO which features really good music and a better crowd than most other places. SKY GARDEN is also on the main road and an interesting place to go. The bar is on the top floor, the three storeys below feature all different lounge areas. The menu is huge but the food is often disappointing. When most places close around 2.00 or 3.00 in the morning, night owls of all kinds continue drinking at nearby MAMA'S until sunrise.

For a somewhat more civilized evening out, you can have dinner and a couple of drinks at the bar at either TJ's or KORI in Kuta, at POCO LOCO in Legian, at the open street side bar at NERO Bali right opposite AROMAS Restaurant in Kuta, at the re-built MACCARONI CLUB in Kuta, at MADE'S WARUNG in Basangkasa (see BALI - Restaurants to Enjoy), or at the trendy HU'U Bar & Lounge near the Petitenget temple, LA LUCIOLA and THE LIVING ROOM.

One of the most trendy venues in Bali is KU DE TA right on the beach adjacent to the Oberoi hotel. This is the place to see and be seen, and from late afternoon on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays there is a DJ providing rather noisy entertainment for Bali's beautiful people. Hot contender is SUNSET ON SIX (SOS) on the sixth floor rooftop terrace of the up-market ANANTARA RESORT — set right on the beach next door to GADO GADO and opened in May 2008. Both places are great to watch Bali's famous sunsets, but expect to pay for a cocktail around US$7 and more.

Something more outrageous and only for open-minded people is HULU CAFE in Garlic Lane between Jalan Padma and Jalan Melasti in Kuta/Legian, a place which calls itself the "only real gay bar in all of Bali" with drag shows starting at 11:00 p.m. three times per week. The performances are actually kind of funny!

You'll find a large and quite popular HARD ROCK CAFE right at the beginning of Kuta's beach road with live music from 11 p.m. to 2 a.m. Expect to find many singles of all kinds here looking for company. If you think this is too noisy, too crowded, or the air-conditioning too cold for you, try the CENTER STAGE at the HARD ROCK RESORT located in the back of the CAFE. As the name implies, the band performs on a raised stage in the middle of the huge round lobby bar until 11:00 p.m. Both HARD ROCK outlets are expensive by Bali standards.

The JAYA PUB on the main road in Seminyak features also live music and attracts many Indonesian customers who don't mind the chilling air-conditioning and the sometimes horrible bands and singers.

Seminyak's best place to have a drink and some fun at night are nowadays probably OBSESSION World Music Bar and SANTA FEE Bar & Grill, Jalan Abimanyu (also known as Gado Gado Road or Jalan Dhyana Pura). Life music, reasonably priced cocktails, a surprisingly good wine list (you have to ask for it, but the prices are very low for Bali standards), and a menu offering local, Mexican, and Japanese dishes as well as a choice of pizzas around the clock and the friendly service attract many visitors until the early hours. If you feel too hot downstairs, you can move to the small air-conditioned "Wine Lounge" upstairs where you find also a rather good choice of wines to take home.

Other popular night spots nearby in the same street are SPY BAR, LIQUID, Q BAR ("for the alternative lifestyle"), SPACE and THE GLOBE. New bars and "Chill-Out Lounges" are opening all the time, and most of them feature DJ's and/or live music on certain nights. Just walk down the road and check them out !

Later, from 2:00 a.m., it's party time at the SYNDICATE, BACIO and DOUBLE SIX, a large open-air disco with several bars, big dance floor, and many tables. All three are located next to each other on the beach in Seminyak and charge an entrance fee of 30,000 to 100,000 Rupiah (depending on the day) for which you get a voucher for a free drink. Here and in nearby DE JA VU you'll find most of Bali's night owls drinking and dancing the night away until 4:30 a.m. or so. (The legendary GADO GADO Disco has been re-converted into a restaurant.)

Also, watch out for notices and small posters in Kuta and Seminyak announcing special events such as Full Moon Parties, House Warming Parties, Body Painting Parties, etc, etc. If these "parties" are announced to the public (even if only by word-of-mouth), they are open for everybody. You'll have to pay for your drinks, therefore, don't be shy.

UBUD

Don't expect too much here. We are not Ubud nightlife experts, but names frequently mentioned include PUTRA BAR, Jl. Monkey Forest (every night live music ranging from Reggae to rock), MAGIC BAR, Jl. Monkey Forest (live music and sometimes great atmosphere), JAZZ CAFE, Jl. Tebesaya (live music and jam sessions on different nights), EXILE BAR (Saturday nights only, great music), and FUNKY MONKEY (early hours cafe).

Bali

Bali has been chosen as one of the world’s best tourist destinations. With its warm tropical climate, it has been a popular destination from countries all around the world, especially from four season countries. The main attractions that make Bali become world’s renowned destination are the culture and its people. The culture of Bali and its customs remained intact for centuries regardless of huge influx of tourists; in fact the cultural aspect is the main attraction, apart from natural beauty – from white sandy beach of Kuta, lush green paddy fields of Ubud, to cool mountain breeze in Bedugul and Kintamani.

Tourists in Bali come from all walks of life and of all ages - from young surfer to well established senior citizen. Therefore, huge market potential is still open. In addition, infrastructure with international standard is also available - from international airport, hotels, resorts, villas, cafés and restaurants, night life, shopping centers, and medical services. With all these facilities, Bali without doubt also has been a preferred choice for long term holiday stay.

Foreign investment in Bali has been significant and plays an important role in economic growth, with substantial numbers of existing businesses being owned by expatriates, be it hospitality industries such as hotels and resorts, cafés and restaurants to garment and apparels industries, as well as handicraft and furniture industries. In fact the most well known food specialty industry is owned by an expatriate from Europe.
