Rugged Indian Ocean beach with dramatic cliffs, black sand, tide-pools and surf — ideal for long-exposure seascapes, wide coastal panoramas and moody sunset light. Accessible by car from Pelabuhanratu with basic parking nearby and a short walk to viewpoints. Visit at low tide for exposed rocks and at golden hour for warm light; watch for strong currents and local fishermen. Weekdays and early mornings minimize crowds.
