Kura-kura Beach

This beach is apparently clean and nice, but don't expect me to be impressed. It's just another sandy stretch of land with water nearby. And while I'm sure some people will give it a big recommendation with heart-eyed emojis, I'm not one of them. The least we can do is keep it clean, though I doubt that will be enough to make it stand out from all the other beaches. Oh, and apparently it's easy to reach by car or scooter, so that's something. Five stars, I guess.

The beach is truly a sight to behold, particularly when you make your way up to the top of the hill. The panoramic view of the cliffs, shoreline, and hills is absolutely breathtaking. You can easily explore the entire coastline, from the hilltop down to the distant shores. Watching the sunset from this spot is also a must-see experience. However, it's worth noting that this beach may not be the best for swimming due to its high tides, rocky terrain, and strong winds. Additionally, there is a parking fee to access the area, but unfortunately, litter can be found scattered about. If only the beach were kept cleaner, it would be an even more exceptional destination.

This stunning beach with breathtaking scenery of the sparkling water, making it an idyllic destination for nature lovers. The eastern headland is a breeze to climb and offers spectacular views, while the larger western headland is equally impressive. Although facilities are limited, a few small stalls are open for business. The beach is easily accessible via a well-maintained sealed road, and small shelters can be found along the foreshore for a bit of respite from the sun.

The breathtaking Pantai Kura-Kura boasts of its pristine white sands and crystal-clear blue waters. Its name was derived from the cliff that takes the form of a turtle, adding to its unique charm. However, the lack of trash bins is a downside, and it is hoped that the government will provide more for the convenience of beachgoers.

The beach offers an incredible vista, complete with the stunning Kura Kura Island. Visitors can enjoy the comfort of berugas and indulge in delicious treats from numerous food vendors. The entrance fee of 10K is unclear whether it is based on the number of people or motorbikes. During my visit in the rainy season, the tide was high, and I didn't dare to take a dip in the water. Unfortunately, the beach lacks proper trash disposal facilities, leading to litter scattered throughout. However, one can opt to climb the hill for a breathtaking view. The management should focus on improving the waste management system to maintain the beach's pristine beauty.
