Pantai Glagah Indah

The beach spans along the southern coast of Java with black iron-rich sand and concrete tetrapods that break incoming waves at the shoreline point.

The beach area contains a Buddhist stupa from the 6th century CE, discovered during the reign of regent Cangakmengeng with additional archaeological artifacts.

Local fishermen gather at the long pier built from tetrapods to catch various fish species while participating in traditional fishing practices.

Visitors can access the beach through paved roads from Yogyakarta city, located 40 kilometers away, with an entrance fee of 4,000 Indonesian Rupiah.

A natural lagoon formed by tidal seawater creates a calm water body surrounded by wild grass, offering opportunities for kayaking and paddle boating.
