Pantai Sine, Sandy beach in East Java, Indonesia
Pantai Sine is a beach in East Java with white sand stretching along the Indian Ocean. The shoreline combines smooth sandy areas with scattered rocky outcrops that break up the coastline.
Local fishermen have used this beach as their base since early settlements in the Tulungagung region. Over time it became a hub for coastal fishing communities and maritime trade.
The beach holds significance in local traditions through the Larung Sesaji ceremony, where residents present offerings to express gratitude to the sea and its resources.
You can buy fresh seafood directly from fishermen at the on-site fish market operating in the early morning hours. The best time to visit is when boats arrive and activity peaks at the shoreline.
A natural freshwater stream cascades down the coastal cliffs near the shoreline and forms a small waterfall on the beach. This freshwater flow is unusual for the area and attracts visitors looking for a different experience.
