Magnificent view! How do we get down there??&#8230;Hike down the off-beaten path, my friends..Make sure you wear non-slippery shoes or sandals. It is not a beach finding path as usual. Tegal Wangi is not really a secluded beach, but it is much less popular than other ones along the Uluwatu coastal lines. There were literally me, Jeff, Gunawan and the 4 tail boys playing with joy in the water, when you see dogs barking and run happily and shaking splashing their tails, on the beach, you know, it&#8217;s a good day&#8230;A good sunny day in Bali, just right on my Jimbaran backyard!<\/p><!--CusAds-->\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Trek - Tegal Wangi Beach\" src=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-4.jpg\" alt=\"Trek - egal Wangi Beach\" width=\"630\" height=\"423\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The view from the top is amazing!&#8230;and local fishermen were there just to catch some small fishes for family brunch \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-5.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1621\" title=\"Fisherman - Tegal Wangi Beach\" src=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-5.jpg\" alt=\"Fisherman - Tegal Wangi Beach\" width=\"630\" height=\"423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-5.jpg 630w, https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-5-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Not only that!

Unfortunately, when the high tide is on, you will not be able to see these two beach basins, it is actually dangerous to stay inside the cave where we usually throw our stuffs and lay down on our sarongs, as the big waves will soon hit the cave and suck everything back to the ocean in seconds!<\/p>\n<!--CusAds--><p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-6.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Jacuzzi - Tegal Wangi Beach\" src=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-6.jpg\" alt=\"Jacuzzi - Tegal Wangi Beach\" width=\"630\" height=\"423\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And so the backyard hidden gem search continues&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-8.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1624\" title=\"Tegal Wangi Beach\" src=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-8.jpg\" alt=\"Tegal Wangi Beach\" width=\"630\" height=\"423\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-8.jpg 630w, https:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/08\/tegal-wangi-beach-jimbaran-8-300x201.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All photos by : <a title=\"Bali Photography\" href=\"http:\/\/photography.risanto.com\" target=\"_blank\">Benny Risanto<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Related posts :<br \/>\n&#8211; <a title=\"Bali Lover - Jeff Kristianto\" href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/bali-lover-jeff-kristianto\/\" target=\"_blank\">Bali Lover &#8211; Jeff Kristianto<\/a><br \/>\n&#8211; <a title=\"Balangan Beach\" href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/balangan-beach-the-hand-basin-beach\/\" target=\"_blank\">Balangan beach &#8211; hand basin beach<\/a><br \/>\n&#8211; <a title=\"Impossible Beach ever\" href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/impossible-beach-ever\/\" target=\"_blank\">Impossible beach ever<\/a><br \/>\n&#8211; <a title=\"A me time at Geger Beach, Nusa Dua\" href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/a-me-time-at-geger-beach-nusa-dua\/\" target=\"_blank\">A me time at Geger Beach, Nusa Dua<\/a><br \/>\n&#8211; <a title=\"Reasons whi I dislike Dreamland Beach\" href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/reasons-why-i-dislike-dreamland-beach-in-bali\/comment-page-1\/#comment-5049\" target=\"_blank\">Reasons why I dislike Dreamland Beach<\/a><br \/>\n&#8211; <a title=\"My 5 Favorite Beaches in Bali\" href=\"http:\/\/www.risanto.com\/beeamazing\/my-5-favorite-beaches-in-bali\/comment-page-2\/#comment-5050\" target=\"_blank\">My 5 favorite Beaches in Bali<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!--CusAds-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was one lazy Sunday morning, my (one &amp; only) lovely neighbor, Jeff, asked me to join him walking his two dogs to the beach.
