Más informaciónJimbaran seafood cafes refer to a group of longstanding dining establishments on Jimbaran Bay, which the area owes its fame to. A barbecue and seafood lovers’ haven, especially those who are looking to try out great local flavours, the group includes a total of 17 restaurants that each offers a slightly different set of appeals for dining families and couples.
These so-called seafood cafes mostly open afternoon with parasol-shaded wooden tables laid out near the tide’s edge. Some cafes offer slightly gimmicky live entertainment or attractive palm leaf decorations to set themselves from the rest. Recipes of homemade Balinese sambal chilli dips vary from one café to another, but the ikan bakar Jimbaran grilled snapper is a definite must-try.
