About this tour
Watch the Kecak fire dance at Melasti Beach as the sun drops over the Indian Ocean, then head to Jimbaran Bay for dinner on the sand. This five-hour evening combines Balinese performance with seafood grilled fresh in front of you—think whole fish, prawns, squid skewers, and mussels served family-style with rice and dessert. A private driver picks you up, handles all fees, and an English-speaking guide explains the cultural context throughout.

What to expect
You'll arrive at Melasti Beach in late afternoon to secure a good vantage point for the Kecak performance—a hypnotic chant-and-dance spectacle with fire-twirling performers silhouetted against the sunset. After roughly an hour, your guide escorts you to Jimbaran Bay where tables are set directly on the beach. Grilled seafood arrives hot in courses: whole fish first, then prawns and squid, mussels last. Waves lap nearby. You eat with your hands or provided utensils, drink what you bring (or buy locally), and watch the sky fade to purple. By 9 p.m. you're back in the vehicle heading home.
Good to know
Bring a light wrap or sarong—sand cools quickly after sunset and sea breeze picks up. Wear shoes you don't mind removing for the beach dinner. Tips aren't included but customary for guides. Prams work on Melasti's sandy approaches; very young children sit on laps during the dance.
