Seminyak, Coastal village district in Kuta, Indonesia.
Seminyak is a coastal village in the southwest that stretches along the Indian Ocean with white sand beaches and numerous beachfront establishments. The area sits at an elevated position and combines beach life with urban features.
The village developed from a fishing settlement into an administrative unit within Kuta district. This change accelerated in the late colonial period and intensified through tourism growth in the late twentieth century.
Temples and ceremonial spaces shape daily life and show Balinese traditions, while international restaurants and art galleries reflect the modern diversity of the place.
Visitors can explore the area with rented scooters or taxis, with Jalan Raya Seminyak connecting main places. The beach area is easy to access and the district offers various spots for eating and sleeping.
The area is divided into four administrative neighborhoods that coexist with two traditional banjar adat communities. This system shows how modern and traditional life exist side by side here.
