A fluid ejecting apparatus which ejects a fluid, includes: an ejection pipe which has an opening through which the fluid is ejected a fluid chamber which is communicated with the ejection pipe and accommodates the fluid therein a bubble generating unit which generates a bubble in the fluid within the fluid chamber a supply flow path which is communicated with the fluid chamber an opening and closing unit which is provided in the supply flow path and opens and closes the supply flow path a fluid supply portion which supplies the fluid to the fluid chamber through the supply flow path by pressurizing the fluid and a driving control portion which controls driving of the bubble generating unit. The driving control portion performs control such that a bubble is generated by the bubble generating unit after the supply flow path is opened by the opening and closing unit.
