The shoreline was passable, however, it's not a suitable spot for swimming as it is considered a sacred site for the local community's ceremonies.
This secluded beach is a haven away from the hustle and bustle of tourist hotspots. The presence of locals adds to the authentic and welcoming atmosphere. While there are no apparent restrooms, the calm surroundings make it an ideal spot for unwinding. A few dining options are available for those seeking refreshments. The waves can be a bit rough, so caution is advised when swimming or surfing. Beware of submerged rocks that could cause injury. The only downside is the amount of litter present, which detracts from the natural beauty of the beach. Despite this, it is still a pristine location to appreciate.
After exploring the various beaches along Jl. Ida Bagus Mantra, I decided to check out Pantai Lebih. This beach is conveniently located just 100 meters off the main road, with ample parking and a variety of warungs and one upscale seafood restaurant. While the beach itself is not the main attraction due to the retaining wall and small stretch of black sand that is dependent on the tide, it is still worth a visit if you find yourself in the area. I spoke with several locals who raved about the seafood quality, whether you choose to dine at one of the casual warungs or the more upscale restaurant. So, if you're in the mood for some delicious seafood and a quick beach stop, Pantai Lebih is definitely worth considering.
Arrive early to witness the stunning sunrise and linger until 9am when the waves begin to surge with energy. The tranquil beach is adorned with a charming temple, providing the perfect backdrop to observe the captivating local ceremonies, if fortune favors you. The hospitable locals will make you feel right at home, and the lack of tourists in the area ensures an authentic Balinese experience.
Lebih Beach boasts a unique and exotic landscape with its stunning black sand and breathtaking waves. Unlike the bustling tourist hotspots, this hidden gem offers a peaceful and serene atmosphere. Indulge in the local cuisine, particularly the delectable fish BBQ, which is a must-try when visiting this beach.
