The Beauty in Selong Belanak Beach


Selong Belanak beach is one of the most beautiful place in Lombok. It has a very magnificent scenery and the environtment is still natural. That place is not too crowded because many foreigner and local resident aren’t too interested in Selong Belanak beach. There are some probable reason that make this happen one of them is because there is no advertisement about this amazing place.

As a visitor I can convince you that this place is a really comfortable place. Moreover, there is a hotel on the top of mountain so people can check in and have a good view in the night. Selong Belanak beach is easy to reach, only about 30-40 km from International Lombok Airport. You can drive a car or ride your motorcycle to get there because the road has fixed so you can get there more easily.

In that place there are some entertainment that you would get such as surfing, fishing, and kind of. There are also guide there, so don’t need to worry if you get lost or can not speak local language. However, the people are very kind and friendly who will always keep in touch to you eventhough they can’t speak english or other foreign languages it doesn’t concern them becuase they are really happy if there are some forigner visit thier place.

Every year there is a traditional ceremony is held in this place called ‘Bau Nyale’. You can look up on internet about Bau Nyale. It is one of famous cermonies in Lombok because every year nearly all the people of Lombok will come to the coast to catch worm ‘Nyale’. I have look up on internet and this unique worm is only located in West Nusa Tenggara province and especially in Lombok which has special cermony to catch this worm every year. In fact, ‘Nyale’ is named after a princess who decide to sacrifice herself to save her people by jumping into the sea and she turns out become worms. I hope I can tell you about this story in the next article.

Thanks 4 Reading ^_^
