How to get to Dreamland Beach in Bali
By far the best way to get around Bali is by scooter – this island is just not made for cars. Most accommodations will be able to arrange a scooter rental for you, and if you hire for multiple days you can usually haggle down to around 60,000 IDR per day. If you’re not comfortable driving in Bali, you can always hire a private driver online.
Pantai Dreamland Beach is on Bali’s southwest coast and can be easily found on Google Maps. On the way to Dreamland Beach we drove through a pristine and landscaped estate with high end resorts and a golf course. There is an official parking lot on the right side of the waterway that runs through the beach.

What to expect at Bali Dreamland Beach
Dreamland Beach is a beautiful beach with a lot to see and do. It is a wellknown surf spot with one of Uluwatu’s few smaller beach breaks, making it a popular spot for beginner to intermediate surfers. When the swell is larger, it makes for fantastic entertainment watching the advanced and pro surfers shred it.
At the entrance of Dreamland Beach you’ll find a lot of beachside bars and restaurants, as well as beach umbrellas for rent. This area is usually pretty busy, so if you like people watching it’s a great place to chill out and enjoy the scenery.
If you continue to the left side of Dreamland Beach, you’ll see it gets a lot more rugged and natural. Enormous limestone cliffs tower over the beach, and there are even a couple of caves to explore.
Dreamland Bali Cliffs
The fun doesn’t stop at the sand, as you can actually hike up the hill to the clifftop and enjoy an epic view of the beach. At sunset this area can be packed with people all admiring the horizon, but it’s a really cool vibe so we didn’t mind sharing it with others.
