In Reply to: Beaches - Better in Kuta or Nusa Dua??? posted by Glenna Smith on Friday, 12. February 1999 at 04:41 Bali Time:
I stayed in Nusa Dua and I found the beaches to be fine, though
there is a lot of coral and you can't walk barefoot along the
shoreline. We have friends who stayed in Kuta, and they said
that even though the hotel staff raked the beach daily, it was
always full of garbage, as well as open ditches with sewage
running through them. I didn't see any fabulous beaches
in Bali (i.e. powdery sand and aquamarine water) but I did
like the warmth and lack of hawkers at Nusa Dua. Nusa Dua
beaches are also very calm, no wave action like at Jimbarin
or Kuta.
