One of the best beaches in the popular beach in Lombok Island is Kuta Beach Lombok. I like this beach because it is very clean, with crystal white Sands it’s enough to make this beach so special. Unlike Kuta beach Bali, Kuta beach Lombok calmer and quieter because not many tourist who know of the existence of this beach. This beach is ideal for the tourist crowd who does not like and want privacy.
About seven km east of Kuta to fishing in Gerupuk village, where there are several potential breaks on the reefs at the entrance of Gerupuk Bay. Again access is by local fishing boat. There’s more breaks further east and west, from Blongas to Serewi. Also known as Putri Nyale Beach, Kuta Beach Lombok is located on the south coast of central Lombok is one of the most scenic and unspoiled beaches in this part of Indonesia. From Kuta to Tanjung Aan five km away, it is an unbroken stretch of clean white sand on the Indian Ocean. It is safe for bathing and swimming. Further to the west are the surfers and wind surfer’s beaches. Each year, on the 19th day of the tenth month of Sasak lunar calendar on February or March when Nyale fish come to the sea’s surface, Kuta Beach Lombok is the site of great festivities. Fishermen sail out to sea while young men and women gather along the beach to join in the merrymaking, tease each other and perhaps meet to build a more lasting relationship.
Some people wonder about Kuta, Is it Kuta Beach Bali ? It’s Kuta Beach Lombok (Sometime spelt Kute Beach), South Lombok Island, Especially in Kuta, tanjung A’an and Mawun has magnificent stretch of white sand and blue sea with rugged hills rising around it. Some part in south lombok known for it’s best surfing spot but diving in lombok especially in Sepi Bay is one of the best dive spots in Indonesia.
There is only a few development with far fewer tourist than in famous Kuta Beach Bali, But when the New International Airport project finish in few more years, a big plans to develop a whole stretch of the superb south coast with luxury hotels.
After many years of speculation there are signs something is happening, with the road from Praya completely remade and big new road running to as yet undeveloped beaches. Travelers are reported some hassles here, People flock to Kuta for the annual Nyale fishing celebration. The main tourist season is August and for the rest of year it’s very quite.
The fabulous south coast of Lombok, with sweeping bays and craggy headlands protected from the full force of the Indian Ocean swells by colourful coral reefs, finds its most ‘urban’ expression in the little community of Kuta (or Kute: this side of the Wallace Line the spelling is optional), around 30 kilometres south of Praya in the Central Lombok lowlands.
It is the major center of tourism development on the south coast, but still a sleepy place of only a few permanent residents. It’s a great place for Lombok-made clothing and artefacts. And it is also the base for exploring southern Lombok Beaches and the many points of interest in the region.
An easy 90 minutes drive from Senggigi Beach Lombok, Kuta makes for a wonderful day trip from other points in Lombok, or indeed an alternative holiday destination for sun lovers. The four star hotel Novotel Lombok is there to provide a definitive range of creature comforts.
Kuta and the surrounding region also has an international reputation for some of the best surfing destinations in South-East Asia and it is here that the Indian Ocean’s regular big swells form great surf breaks and offer fantastic vistas of cliffs, headlands and beaches carved out of the southern coastline.
