Q : Why should I visit Jimbaran Bay? i.e. What's so special about Sharkeys?

Western Involvement :

Western influence has been introduced on all levels of operation from controlling the initial selection of seafood from suppliers, through to storage, preparation and presentation. Aspects of a western lifestyle have been described to staff in order for them to gain an appreciation of the expectations of a western clientele and the crucial standards necessary for success.

Sharkeys operation is monitored daily and evaluated regularly by western and local management to ensure we are successful in hosting fantastic evenings for our guests.

Sharkeys is managed by western standards but tries not to interfere with the character of the locals, which is a huge part of Bali's charm. So far it has been a great combination.

Atmosphere :

A red, gold and amber horizon melts away to reveal a starry evening sky. Your table stands in the ambience of a stylish restaurant or on a sandy beach a few meters from the ocean.

As rolling waves crash onto the shore, you sip a glass of wine and enjoy the aroma of fresh, flame-grilled seafood drifting your way. A quintet of acoustic musicians begins their serenade as a light onshore breeze cools you from the balmy tropical heat.

Surrounded by candlelight, stars and acoustic serenades your meal arrives. A banquet of huge king prawns, lobster, calamari and fresh local fish, steamed rice, kungkung vegetables, traditional sauces and tropical fruit.

Whether it’s a romantic dinner for two or a feast amongst friends, Sharkeys guarantees a night to remember at a very affordable price.
