Beautiful Virgin beaches In Bali

Virgin Beach located in Bali. The name of this beach is not famous as Kuta, Sanur or Nusa Dua. Besides the location which is hidden in the eastern part of the island of Bali, the distance from Denpasar (about 75 miles) or Kuta beach frontage also makes it less popular among the tourists.

I know Virgin Beach also recently. I was informed about this coast of a tourism magazine. It was very minimal information. Intrigued by the beauty of the Virgin Beach in the magazine, I was tempted to look for this beach.

Beaches with Many Names:
This beach has many names, ranging from the White Sand Beach, White Bias Beach, Beaches of Cooperatives, to Virgin Beach. Many reasons behind the naming of this beautiful beach. White Sand Beach for example. White Sand Beach Name of course motivated by the color of the sand of this beach is white (rather dark). White Coast Bias is given in accordance with the name of the company that will build the golf course and its facilities such as five-star hotel, swimming pool, shopping arcade and an area of ​​124 hectares in the coastal areas, namely PT. Sanggraha Bias Bias White and PT Bali White. As with the Coast Cooperatives. This name was given because of the location of this beach is located in the village of Cooperatives, Karangasem district, Karangasem regency, Bali. While Virgin Beach, referring to the actual meaning of the word virgin, etc ie land that is still in its natural state and has not been used or change by people (Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English). Compared with other names, names Virgin Beach is more popular among foreign tourists. Perhaps because they are easier to pronounce. I also prefer the name Virgin Beach. Instead quasi westernized.

coastal state is really still "virgin." Between Two Hidden in Virgin Beach Hill To find tricky. It was hidden in between two hills, the Apen Hill and Hill Penggian.Virgin Beach white sand black, with clear sea water blue green shades. The blue sky is always shaded beach. Very soothing eye. The waves are not too high. So, it's safe to swim or snorkel. Virgin Beach lies the hidden, making this beach remains natural (virgin) and give more privacy to the visitors than the other beaches that are already popular.

 

When I got there, the beach is quite crowded. Some young children engrossed in the white foam bath waves. Some foreign tourists were seen engrossed swim, snorkel, or just sunbathing on the chaise. There is also a foreign tourist who was relaxing massage on the beach. Yes, at Virgin Beach is there some simple cafes and stalls selling food and drinks and rent snorkeling equipment. Some of them also provide massage services (massage). If you want to rent a lounge chair and beach umbrella also available. Facilities at this beach is quite complete, although very simple.

I was fortunate during a visit to Virgin Beach. When I got there, there was a father who was playing rindik (Balinese traditional musical instrument made ​​of bamboo) on the beach. The sound of music was playing rindik beautiful, reassuring. I was sitting near the father, while enjoying a coconut sweet young and fresh. The atmosphere was really calm and peaceful. Taste delicious once, sit back on the edge of a beautiful beach, accompanied by the sound of the waves and the melodious strains of music rindik. I was so comfortable to linger in Virgin Beach and do not want to go from there.

 

Unfortunately, tranquility and peace at Virgin Beach ambitious development project threatened the golf course and its facilities. I hope that the project would not be implemented at Virgin Beach. Let Virgin Beach still "virgin," so that the atmosphere remains calm and peaceful there.
