Serangan Beach

Walking on this beach is like stepping into a dream. The vast expanse of white sand stretches out before you, unbroken by the presence of any other people. As you stroll along, you'll discover a treasure trove of exotic shells that have washed up on the shore. And when you reach the end of the rocks, the view that awaits you is simply breathtaking. It's an experience that I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for a slice of paradise.

The beach features a stunning expanse of white sand and crystal-clear waters, making for a picturesque setting. Along the shoreline, there are a variety of warungs offering delectable local cuisine. For those new to surfing, this location is an ideal starting point to learn and explore the sport.

This beach is just lovely, but let's be real, what beach isn't? It's tranquil and clean, which is great if you're into that sort of thing. There's a tiny warung selling some basic snacks, coffee, and coconut, but don't expect anything too fancy. It's a nice enough place to visit if you're on holiday in Lombok, but don't expect to be blown away by anything too spectacular.

We ventured to a serene beach for a brief visit, but our stay was cut short when a man approached us and demanded payment for non-existent parking. Despite our attempts to reason with him and explain our intentions, he insisted on a standard fee of 10000rup. It's disappointing to encounter locals who are discourteous to visitors, especially when we were the sole individuals present.

Our experience of the beach was that it is more suitable for surfing than swimming. The sand is reminiscent of small mustard seeds, scattered across a large portion of the beach. If you're interested, there are plenty of pretty shells, crabs, and hermit crabs to admire. We caught a fleeting glimpse of something large in the water, but it was not clear enough to identify. The beach has a steep incline into the waves, which were quite powerful during our visit. We arrived at high tide, so it may be different during low tide and a gentle breeze. Like many beaches in Lombok, it is stunning to admire while sipping a drink. During our visit, we did not encounter any vendors attempting to sell us anything, possibly due to its proximity to the resorts. Only one local person chuckled at us good-naturedly as my husband carried me piggyback through the sinking sand (it must have been quite a sight!). We exchanged a friendly wave, and that was the extent of our interaction.
