Nusa Dua Beach,Bali

Nusa Dua Beach is part of Bali's purpose-built resort enclave on the southern Bukit Peninsula. While not an ancient historical site, it is significant as a model of modern tourism planning in Bali—featuring well-maintained public beaches, luxury resorts, recreation facilities and cultural venues that showcase Balinese performing arts. Its protected coral reef and calm waters contribute to the area's value as a family-friendly beach and a location for marine life conservation awareness.
