Pink Beach is one of the most iconic beaches in East Lombok. famous for its pinkish sand beaches. from Mataram it takes 2-3 hours. The road conditions are now good. There are also many other beaches nearby that you can visit. the waves are calm, suitable for swimming.

The beach is nice and clean, the road is very far and there are minimal signs, so I got lost. The downside is that the toilets and places to change clothes are not comfortable, as is the prayer room because it is still traditionally made by local residents.

Fabulous reef offshore totally ruined by filthy warongs and a beach filled with litter and refuse. Disgusting dirty toilets. Depressing ugly spot spoiled by a society that could not care for the natural environment. A potential world class attraction completely degraded by humans. I definitely do not recommend eating there. You're sitting in a rubbish tip getting buzzed by flies and accompanied by numerous stray dogs. Avoid it.
