" Decent, accessible beach with plenty of options for learning to surf, eating or just beaching yourself for the day. Close to other beaches and great food in canggu. Sand is black due to volcanic activity in the region. This can be kind of a cool plus if you've never seen it before (picture lots and lots of salt and pepper.
Great for both sunrise and sunset but sunset is better since you face West.
No problems with the water itself but there are pockets of trash on the beach. Lots of dogs using the sand for a bathroom so be sure you bring a towel or sarong to lie on. For some reason people go and pluck everything living out of the tide pools at low tide so if you want to see anything make sure you get there first :) "

" Nice beach to visit. They have live music and a small bar to drink some beers, sunset is very nice too from this beach, along the way to this place there are a lot of cafes around. Parking area is huge, right before the beach Oldman’s would be the great place to have some foods. Highly recommended "

" Great beach for beginners for surfing. Board rentals (50k) with free water, and rash guards. There are also stands for beer, corn, and chairs. Great way to spend a day. Waves can sometimes get busy. The only downside is that the water can sometimes get dirty after a huge rainstorm and every time you paddle you hit plastic. Be prepared to “donate” 2k for parking "

" Good surfing spot for beginner-intermediate surfers. The bottom is sandy but some parts are rocky and the rocks could be quite sharp to step on. Not recommended for absolute beginners unless you're with an instructor.
The wind is often strong, so there were kite surfers and wind surfers too.
Nice spot to watch sunset or just to chill on the beach reading a good book. "

" I took these two photo's a little bit west(300m) of this location on by the big rocks resting on in the sea. The sunset is truly amazing as you can see. Go around 6:15pm to this location and you will get some spectacular shots of the sunset, and if lucky you may get some bystanders to cast a silhouette for you. Or just get your friends to climb up to these rocks. By the looks of it, it looked quite dangerous to reach so use your best judgement. "

Having said all that, it's still a wonderful way to spend time and the sunsets, like all of the west coast are can be stunning. "
