A new breakwater will be constructed along Bali’s Kuta Beach as part of ongoing efforts to protect and preserve this iconic coastal destination for future generations of holidaymakers. As the original beach resort of Bali, Kuta Beach has long been a favorite spot for tourists.

With increased investment in the preservation of Kuta, the area is set to make a resurgence. The construction of the new breakwater will greatly improve the beach experience for visitors, particularly by helping to protect the expansive stretch of sand that Kuta is known for. In the coming months, visitors to Kuta Beach may notice conservation teams working on-site to build the breakwaters. These structures, similar to those along Sanur Beach, are designed to reduce the erosion caused by tidal forces and help maintain the beach for public use.

The project will involve the construction of four new breakwaters extending across the Kuta, Legian, and Seminyak Beach areas, as well as upgrades to the existing breakwater near Discovery Mall. Set to be completed within the next 18 months, this project will provide lasting protection for Bali’s most famous beach resort, ensuring its beauty and accessibility for generations to come. While the breakwaters will help safeguard the coastline, they are not expected to drastically alter the surf conditions at Kuta, which will remain one of Indonesia’s premier destinations for learning to surf.
