A quiet beach beside the airport, for anyone escaping Kuta's buzz who doesn't need sunbeds.

Kelan is for people who want a beach without Kuta's hustle. It sits next to the airport, so now and then a plane passes low overhead, and that's part of the charm. There are fewer people, fewer vendors and a more local feel, with fishermen nearby. It's a good spot for a long walk along the shore or just sitting for a while without anyone pitching you anything. Bring water and something for shade, since not every stretch has any. It's a short scooter ride from Kuta. It suits solo travellers, anyone with a free hour before a flight, and people who like doing their own thing.
