Pecatu


Pecatu
Pecatu is a beach resort located in the southern peninsula of Bali, at the southwestern part of the peninsula. The also popular resort area of Nusa Dua is also located in south-eastern end of the peninsula. Unlike Nusa Dua which is a mostly plain area, Pecatu is hilly with limestone cliffs isolating small, short beaches. The area is popular for surfers and also nudists due to its location behind the cliffs with limited access.

History 

For decades, beaches around Pecatu had been well known by surfers and also nudists due to its location behind the cliffs with limited access. Some of the Macadam small roads were built before the 1997 Asian financial crisis.
After the Asian financial crisis (followed by the Bali bombings) the number of tourists dropped significantly, but it remained popular with surfers and they were among the first to come back. One of the beaches found to be very popular with Australian surfers was named Dreamland Beach. In order to reach this beach one had to hike down a small path. During that time some illegal simple 'warung's (shacks) were built on the beach and provided food and beverages for sale.
Since 2007, one area developer Pecatu Graha Bali (Kuta Golf Links Resort) owned by Tommy Suharto, son of the former Indonesian president who occupied the largest area in Pecatu up to 400 hectares, re-instated the projects begun before the Asian financial crisis.Previously Tommy had 600 hectares of land in the early 1990s and then sold 200 hectares to third parties and the proceeds are now used to finance the project with the new partner, a Balinese businessman, Made G. Putrawan. Indonesia and Bali were not affected by the Global financial crisis 2007, so these projects are well underway and growing rapidly.
Not only the name is changing. Where Dreamland used to be modest and simple, New Kuta Beach in Pecatu is the expression of hope and dreams come true with its luxurious clifftop views and remote location. It boasts being even more remote than Nusa Dua. With the narrow beach just below the cliff walls it is perfect for watching the sunset or the amazingly skilled surfers. This is a big attraction as these waves are not for beginners! The warungs have been moved from the beach and upgraded into nice shops though not as easily accessible from the beach they are much improved. The Entry/Parking Fee has also increased.

Waterpark 

After soft opening at December 2010, since the end of January 2011 a new waterpark called "New Kuta Green Park" has been in operation with ticket price discrimination for international tourists, national tourists and Balinese.
