masuk pantai bayar seikhlasnya, sewa kursi pantai dan payung sepaket 100k gabisa ditawar, sepanjang pantai banyak warung dan parkir juga mudah. tapi paling rekomen langsung ke tebing aja, karena lebih cocok untuk berjemur atau surfing.

Access to the beach is quite far but the views along the road are good, cars can pass through, and at low tide we can play in the water and fish or snails. This is more suitable in the afternoon towards evening. The beach is still not too busy, there is a place to rinse behind the stalls and the fee is 10 thousand per person, the entry ticket by car is 10 thousand cm, the parking is still in the field near the cliff so if you go to the beach you need to go through the stairs. The view is really really good.
