Tangsi beach

On a clear day, the sand is almost white. During sunsets, it takes on a pinkish hue. Upon closer inspection, one can see that the grains of sand are intermixed with the tiniest fragments of dead red corals, which bestow the beach with its unique appearance.

Pink Beach is one of the few places where tourists can enjoy swimming in tranquil waters. As surfing is not prevalent here, visitors typically swim or dive. The seabed is very gentle, making this locale one of the safest - parents can feel confident about their children's safety. Although there are no lifeguards, the absence of noisy parties ensures a peaceful atmosphere. The usual visitors to this beach are couples, families with children, and those who love photography and relaxation.

Facilities for the guests include:

• A parking lot is available.
• A small entrance fee is required.
• Functional toilets are provided.
• Umbrellas and gazebos offer protection from the sun.
• Umbrellas, sunbeds, and kayaks are available for rent.
• Stalls selling simple snacks, drinks, and coconut water can be found.
• Guests may snorkel and dive, provided they bring their own equipment.
• While there are no built-in amusements, the dense sand is ideal for ball games.

The eastern part of the beach is enclosed by a cliff, which can be easily scaled without any effort or special equipment. Atop, there is a breathtaking view of the pink shoreline and the ocean beyond.

The path to the beach may seem daunting, as the last ten kilometers consist of a broken road. Steep slopes and ascents are a primer, dotted with holes. However, the allure of this unique beach is sure to overshadow any other impressions.

When is the best time to visit?

The best time to visit Lombok for a beach vacation is during the dry season, which spans from May to September. This period offers the most conducive weather conditions for enjoying the island's stunning coastlines.

• May to September: Dry Season - This is the ideal time for beach activities, with lower humidity, less rain, and more sunshine. The sea conditions are also generally better for swimming, snorkeling, and diving.
• July and August: Peak Season - These months are the busiest, as they coincide with international summer holidays. Expect more crowds and higher prices, but also a vibrant atmosphere and plenty of sunshine.
• May and June: Shoulder Season - For those looking to avoid the peak season crowds but still enjoy good weather, the months of May and June are perfect. The island is less crowded, and accommodation can be more affordable.
• October to April: Wet Season - While it's possible to visit Lombok during these months, expect heavy rains and potential disruptions to outdoor activities. However, this can also be a time for lush landscapes and fewer tourists.
