The Pirates Bay Restaurant is situated right on Nusa Dua Beach, and it was just 4PM by the time we&#8217;d reach the general location after our visit to Jenggala Keramik. Too early for dinner. And since the beach was right there, and both our kids have this persistent thing about sand (basically see sand must play\/touch\/grab\/build), we spent an hour letting the kids loose before heading to the restaurant for a laid back and quiet dinner.<\/p>\n<p>The Pirates Bay Restaurant is an interesting concept: the pirate-themed restaurant sees a life-sized boat &#8211; and no, I had no pretensions that this was an actual boat used by pirates LOL &#8211; and more impressively, dining areas put up on tree platforms. The menu is quite varied and offering fare that&#8217;s a little more pricey than the usual places. But really, the main attraction of this place is that you&#8217;re literally dining in tree-top platforms. Definitely worth a visit if you&#8217;re the vicinity!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_26740\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-26740\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img
