WHAT TO EXPECT AT GREEN BOWL BEACH BALI
The hike down to Green Bowl Beach can be daunting at first but once you make the hike down you will soon see why it is worth the adventurous efforts.
A small patch of glistening white sand, no more than fifty meters long, gives you a sense of being on a castaway island. The turquoise water to go with will have you in disbelief that such places exist.
I wandered through the shallow waters and discovered how incredibly crystal clear it was, practically so see-through and it seemed as if the water wasn’t even there.
Apart from the pristine beach, Green Bowl is a popular spot for die-hard surfers. The reef break just offshore produces excellent swell and it is far less crowded than the more popular beaches Uluwatu Point and Padang Padang.
On low tide at Green Bowl Beach Bali, you can wander around the caves and further down the coastline to discover other secluded sandy areas and dozens of rock pools.
