[September 2025 Edition] Cafe del Mar Bali: The Ultimate Guide & “Claim the Best Sunset in Canggu 🌅”

What is Cafe del Mar Bali?

Café del Mar is a chill-out brand born in Ibiza in 1980. Its DNA has been transplanted to Bali’s Canggu shoreline, evolving into a hybrid space of Mediterranean × Tropical Bali. Expect a 700㎡ infinity pool, all seats oriented to ocean views, modern Mediterranean cuisine using local produce, and once the sun dips, the “Sunset Ceremony” begins. It’s luxurious yet relaxed—a “just-right” vibe that captivates travelers in their 20s–40s from around the world.

✨When the sound of the waves synced with the DJ set, a salty breeze tickled my nose and the sky exploded in gold—“Ah, so this is the legendary Bali sunset!” Goosebumps. Then, five minutes after arrival, I couldn’t find my reserved seat 😱… but one quick call and the staff had it sorted👌. By nightfall, the mellow BGM and waves become a lullaby 🎶—the little chaos long forgotten.

🌊 Why We Love Cafe del Mar Bali
