Green Bowl Beach

The beach is quite clean. The waves aren't too big, and there are plenty of fish in the coral. However, the beach isn't very wide, and there are many steps to get down. It's a good place to relax.

**CHECK TIDE INFO BEFORE YOU VISIT** we found out quite fast this beach is only accessible during low tide for walking on the sand and swimming. We visited during high tide and yet it was still gorgeous, at least from the staircase haha. The wild monkeys will follow you up and down the staircase, but as long as you don't pay much attention to them they will not bother to steal or disturb you. The babies were absolutely adorable. If you don't like being approached by sellers selling their bracelets, I got bad news haha. The sellers that are by the parking area are very persistent, but the ones by the bottom of the staircase were quite friendly and gave us our space when we wanted to enjoy our sight seeing. ALSO very steep decline to get to the beach. No idea how many meters of a drop it is but there are spots along the staircase to sit and take a breath. If you have bad knees or asthma, I do not recommend. Would try to visit again during low tide

The beach is beautiful, but be prepared for the way down and back up! There are a lot of steps! Watch your belongings as there are monkeys around. I visited during low tide, so make sure to check the tide schedule if you want to swim

If you want to come here, please consider there will be grandmas that force you to buy their bracelets, coconuts, message or litterally everything. I understand that it’s hard for the locals to make the ends meet but they way that these grandmas following us, touching and even mocking us in a way that so rude is insane. One thing i regret was agreeing to buy the coconut to keep them away but turns out they still chasin us. No is a no but these grandmas would never understand that. Apart from that, It was really amazing beach, during the morning and after 3 pm the tides are low, you could see the tidal pools and rocks along the cliff. Be aware during noon the tides could get really strong, Keep your belongings in the rocks. Also, Be prepared for some hike, takes around 20 minutes.

Beautiful natural beach, way down 350 steps. The problem starts when walking up again. 😆 There’s almost no one at this beach, unfortunately there is a quite aggressive sales lady both at entrance and down at the beach that wouldn’t leave me alone, very forceful and unpleasant. Although it’s very pristine I won’t come back here, there’s no peace with someone trying to sell every 10min. Pay attention to the tides, the beach is only accessible when it’s low tide.

Green Bowl Beach lives up to its name—tucked inside a lush green cliffside, it features a large cave-like enclave where visitors rest and take in the stunning ocean view. Reaching the beach involves descending hundreds of stairs from the cliffside parking area, so be prepared for a bit of a trek—but it’s all well worth it. In the morning, the beach attracts surfers during high tide. By late afternoon (around 4 PM), the tide recedes, creating calm, shallow waters for strolling and exploring.

Exactly 306 steps down to the beach. Yes I counted. 😅 But it’s totally worth it, even going back up. Sunny in the morning, but not latter in the afternoon. A lot of monkeys on the way there, even few bats in the cave on the beach. Very nice place if you don’t like crowds.

This place is really nice and Beautiful! It costs 12,000 IDR to get in, but it has lots of wild monkeys, and the beach has super clear water. 👍👍 Amazing waves for surfing. There are a huge number of stairs, and they're really steep with no railings. I mean, really steep, and there are lots of them. Be careful.
