Welcome to Legian, Kuta, Bali !
In Balinese the word Legian means anything sweet, pleasant, and delightful to
the senses.
Close to the Kuta action but far enough
for some down time, Legian is less hectic than downtown Kuta but still has a
funky nightlife zone. Legian is a no-holds barred beach where locals,
expatriates and tourists mingle, bargain with the best, play paddle ball and
football, indulge in a massage and manicure, catch up on reading, meditate,
exercise. Legian and Seminyak were small villages a few years ago a short
distance from Kuta.
Over the last few years, accommodation has expanded
around Legian with many simple family-owned guest houses upgraded; complemented
by boutique style hotels and first class hotels. Kuta is literally five-minute
taxi ride away. Sunset is peak time at Legian Beach, when the beach bars fill
up, the football field is at its busiest and the locals knock off work and wade
fully clothed, skirts swirling, into the waves. Now part of the greater Kuta
area, both offer quieter alternatives and a more sophisticated nightlife scene
focusing on dining-out and socializing rather than full-on
partying.
Legian Beach in Bali (Kuta) is an exposed beach break that has reliable
surf. May - Oct (Dry Season) is the favoured of the year for waves.
