Canggu's luxe beach-club beach — black-sand, intermediate surf and the famous Finns Beach Club and Atlas Beach Fest just behind the dunes.
Best for: Beach clubs and stylish surf days
About Berawa Beach
Berawa Beach is Canggu's beach-club heartland — a wide sweep of black volcanic sand backed by some of Bali's biggest names in seaside partying, including Finns Beach Club and the sprawling Atlas Beach Fest. Behind the dunes you will find a dense cluster of cafés, gyms, co-working spaces and boutiques that have made Berawa a favourite with Bali's digital-nomad crowd.
The surf here is a punchy beach break best suited to intermediate surfers, with peaks that shift along the sand. The beach itself is less about lazing on the sand and more about pool days, sunset sessions and stylish dinners — though the wide, dark-sand shoreline is still a dramatic spot for an evening walk as the sun drops into the ocean.
