Melasti Beach (Uluwatu): price, access by car, opening hours and tips
Melasti Beach, at Ungasan in the south of Bali, is a white-sand beach at the foot of limestone cliffs, with turquoise water and a paved road that goes down to the shore. It is therefore easier to reach than other beaches in the area: no long staircase, you arrive by car or scooter. According to guides consulted in October 2026, entry costs about 10,000 IDR per adult (15,000 according to another), parking about 5,000 IDR for a car and 2,000 IDR for a scooter (2024 figures), in cash, with access from about 7:00 to 19:00. Unofficial prices, to be confirmed.
Highlights
The beach seen from above
A beach of pale sand at the foot of the cliff, with rocky platforms uncovered at low tide and waves breaking offshore. Ideal for a photo stop and for sunset.
The road through the cliff
The road crosses the limestone cliff and goes straight down to the beach, which makes it easy to visit with children. For other beaches and a comparison, see the beaches of Uluwatu and Padang Padang.

Tips
- Taxi apps can drop you off but are not allowed to pick you up at the main car park, according to one guide: plan a driver who waits or another way to leave (see private driver in Bali). Pay in cash. The sea can be rough: watch the waves and stay near the edge. No official price displayed: keep small change. For a day, add Uluwatu temple and the kecak.
How to get there
Melasti is at Ungasan, about 45 minutes to 1 hour from the airport and from Seminyak depending on traffic (estimate). By car, scooter or with a driver.
