Can your child swim at Virgin Beach?

We saw a lot of children swimming in the big waves. Many of them were the aged 9-10 years. There were also very young children swimming, however it was only locals.

The waves was real big that day, and we were warned that there was alot of undercurrent. We noticed it ourself – Sebastian was easily pulled out, even if we just sat in the sand and was playing.

Because he recently just learned to swim, a week earlier – in a swimming pool in Ubud, we thought it was too risky to let him swim in the waves.

Ultrashort facts about Virgin Beach

Virgin Beach – is also known as “The White Sandy Beach” (especially among taxi drivers who will drive you out there), it is located 7 km east of Candi Dasa, Bali.

  Travel Tips!

  1. Take a taxi to the beach, and agree with the taxi driver on when to come and pick you up again. Our taxi driver waited on the beach, while he enjoyed some food and a drink – at the food stalls by the parking area.
  2. Bring some food with you. The food that we bought, at one of the beach-stalls, it was spoiled and outright disgusting.
  3. Beware of the undercurrent – especially if you have small children!
