Kuta Market

JL BAKUNG Sari ( Kuta )

Art Market
Market Entrance


Kuta Art Market is a typical market in Bali. Its a great place to wander at sunset.
You can enter the market from Kuta Beach or via the entrance at the Tuban end of Kuta Square.

Although it has a great quantity of shops selling the same articles, you have a huge bartering power. You will find T-shirts, long / short pants , sarongs , shirts ( copy name brands and Hawaiian styles ) shoes, wood carvings, belts, kites just about everything you will need for you stay in bali or your poor friends back home.

Friendly faces Miles of shoes

You will find street hawkers around the outside of the market pedaling fake watches, caps, belts, lighters and anything else they can find. Make sure you barter hard and if they ask for dollars it is US dollars they want. ( see my shopping page for hints on Bartering )

A short strole along JL Kartika Plaza, away from Kuta square, you will find some great eating and some familiar signs

nearby shops All star surf Cafe

In the shopping complex on the left hand side away from Kuta Market and on the top floor, is the "All Star Surf Cafe" A regular haunt for the teenagers and young at heart. This Bar / Restaurant is famous for its "Sudo Sumo wrestling" and friendly atmosphere.

Or perhaps a pleasant, slow horse and cart ride back to your hotel.
( IF staying in the Legian / Kuta / Tuban area )
