Beach and airport runway
Kelan Beach / Pantai Kelan
Kelan Beach is part of Tuban village, a district of Kuta, Badung, Bali, Indonesia, located south of the airport Ngurah Rai and north of Kedonganan. Desa Adat Kelan has two banjars, Banjar Kelan Desa and Banjar Kelan Abian, with a total of approximately 500 families. Most of them traditionally work as fishermen and farmers, but nowadays, some also work in the tourism industry and at the airport.
Pier and boats
Pantai Kelan / Kelan Beach is above the fish market in the northernmost section of Jimbaran Bay. The other two sections of Jimbaran Bay are Muaya Beach (in the south) and Kedonganan Beach. By the way, Kelan Beach was also the home of Sharkey’s seafood restaurant. Unfortunately, Sharkey’s is no more.
You can access Pantai Kelan via Jalan Segara Madu (Segara Madu Street) or Jalan Taman Sari, or you can just walk on the beach from Kedonganan via the fish market to Pantai Kelan.

FAQs
說到克朗海灘最好的海鮮餐廳，我首推這家：
Bawang Merah 海濱餐廳 — 吉米巴蘭灣北部 Kelan 海灘上頂級的海濱海鮮餐廳。直達海灘，停車方便，定價固定，距離 DPS 機場 15 分鐘。.
金巴蘭灣的哪個區域有最好的海鮮餐廳？
All parts of Jimbaran Bay have great seafood restaurants. Three main areas:
- Muaya Beach (south): historically the original main seafood cafe strip and often the busiest at sunset.
- Kedonganan Beach (center): most restaurants, where organized tour traffic tends to concentrate. linked to the fish market
- Kelan Beach (north): offers a more relaxed beachfront setting, easy parking, and quick access from/to DPS Airport, with the same fresh seafood quality and beautiful sunset views.
Bawang Merah is on Kelan Beach, making it a good choice for guests who want a more relaxed beachfront seafood dinner away from the busiest parts of Jimbaran Bay.
Is Bawang Merah less crowded than other Jimbaran seafood restaurants?
Yes. Kelan Beach has far fewer restaurants than Muaya Beach and Kedonganan Beach. At Bawang Merah guests enjoy a spacious beachfront setting and attentive service.
Is Bawang Merah an alternative to the main Jimbaran seafood strip?
Yes. Kelan Beach: same charcoal-grilled seafood, same Indian Ocean sunset, fewer restaurants, free parking, more space. 15 min from DPS Airport.
Fixed pricing, no bargaining — unlike some restaurants on the busier beach strip.
Does Bawang Merah offer both indoor and outdoor beachfront seating?
Three options: beachfront tables on the sand (outdoor), covered sea terrace (rain-proof, ocean view), and indoor seating.
Does Bawang Merah have Balinese dance performances or live music?
Yes. Balinese dance performances are held daily, with several 3-minute dances from 19:00 to 21:00. On most evenings, there is an acoustic band roaming the beach. They play for you against a tip, if you want.
