Full Description
Jalan Legian is one of southern Bali's best-known nightlife strips, packed with bars ranging from relaxed beachside spots to multi-level clubs. Paddy's Pub and Sky Garden are among the longest-running and most recognisable venues, both known for late-night crowds and regular DJ sets.
The street starts filling up by early evening and peaks between 1am and 2am, so a bar-hop works best starting after dinner rather than at sunset. Most venues are within easy walking distance of each other, making it simple to move between a few spots in one night.
