About Pine Beach Bar

The InterContinental's bar on the wide, soft sand at the north end of Kamala Beach. It opens at 08:00 for breakfast and coffee and serves salads, hand-made pizzas, burgers and Thai dishes through the day; at dusk the cocktails and tapas come out for the sunset. On weekends it turns into a beach club, with a fire show, a live DJ and a saxophonist. Prices are those of a five-star resort but with no minimum spend, which makes it one of the better-value seats on the beach.
