Although Jimbaran has now turned into the home of number of the finest hotels in the world, its original color as a fishermen village still remains especially with the hectic activities of fishermen along the beach. Unlike many other coastal areas in Bali Island that have totally turned from fishing villages into tourist spot crowded with umbrellas, hawkers and surf board, Jimbaran exploits it natural potential as fishermen village with the establishment of ranks of seafood restaurants serving the freshest fishes and other crustaceans.

Thanks to the fishermen in Jimbaran, the place is now known to be the heaven of the finest seafood (both raw and processed) in Bali. In doing their activities, the Balinese fishermen in the area use the same boat all over the island, which is narrow outrigger, home made, easy to launch, easy to fix, cheap to make and very stable. This small boat do not sail to far from shore and the proximity to resort hotels to provides a handy market. The fresh captures are straightly delivered to fish market, Kedonganan fish market, which is also located at the beach, to later be bought not only by residents from Jimbaran< and thereabout including Denpasar but also a lot of the island's finest restaurant.

The beautiful white sandy beach on the northern edge of Jimbaran would be full with the colorful traditional boats, the fishermen and their net as they moor after fishing in the morning and afternoon. Only one or two fishermen usually go to the sea, while many men will be on standby to help the fishermen dragging the boat the sand. The women will help with placing the fishes to the washbasin before taking them to the market.

In the night, both tourism and residents often flock to Jimbaran to enjoy the fresh sea food on the beach side restaurant.
