Sawarna Beach

Sawarna Beach is a sand beach on the southern coast of Java with white sand bordered by rocky cliffs overlooking the Indian Ocean. The shoreline stretches for several kilometers and is framed by dark rock formations that jut into the water.

The area was for many years a quiet fishing village known mainly to locals and passing traders. Over the past few decades it has gradually become known to travelers and changed into a popular destination.

Fishermen in the village use traditional methods to catch fish and mend their nets along the shoreline each day. This working waterfront is central to how locals use and experience this stretch of coast.

Several guesthouses and small hotels are located in the nearby village where you can stay and get local advice. The beach is accessible on foot and local guides can arrange cave visits to nearby natural attractions.

Several limestone caves formed over millions of years surround the beach and are now home to large bat colonies. The longest of these caves extends for about 1 kilometer underground and offers a remarkable experience for visitors.
