The special place that is not easy to reach. Must go through the uphill, downhill, and winding road. Yet, arriving at Menganti Beach must make us feel lazy to go home. The uniqueness of Menganti Beach is in the form of a rocky beach, white sand, and beautiful hills. Menganti Beach is located in Karangduwur Village, Ayah District, Kebumen Regency.
If you go to Menganti Beach, here's what you can do:
Enjoy the view
Sounds like a common invitation. Try to imagine sitting in a bamboo hut facing the high seas, on a hill, under shady trees, and a breeze. Against the background of the sound of waves or sometimes birds passing by while you are drinking coconut ice. Suitable spots to enjoy the scenery can be in Menguneng Valley and Tanjung Karang Bata. Near Tanjung Karang Bata there is also a lighthouse that became an icon of Menganti Beach. We cannot say you have been to Menganti Beach if you have not been to this lighthouse.
Wait for Sunrise or Sunset
The position of the beach jutting into the sea allows us to enjoy the beautiful sunrise or sunset. This moment is usually awaited by visitors who stay at Menganti Beach.
Take pictures on The Red Bridge
In addition to the lighthouse, the icon of Menganti Beach is the Red Bridge. This bridge is not over the sea or the beach but on coral reefs. Since there are so many coral reefs on Menganti Beach, the red bridge is then built. The Red Bridge is not only a nice photo spot but also functioned so that visitors are walking comfortably and safely from the sharp coral reefs.
Stay at Menganti Beach
If you want to enjoy the sunrise or sunset, it is better to camp. Why? Because the road to Menganti Beach is uphill and winding with a ravine on the right-left, it is dangerous for you who ride or drive, especially at night. So, it is better to camp there. The camping facilities are adequate. There is already a camping area provided namely Gupakan Kebo. Relax, in this camping area, there is no kebo (buffalo). It is just a name. You can also rent a tent with the equipment. Feel lazy or afraid of camping? Around the camping area, there is also a homely inn for staying a night at an affordable price.
Go fishing
Menganti Beach is also suitable for those of you who like to fish. There is a special spot for fishers in Pedudulan. This place is also suitable for enjoying the sunset because of its location in the western part of Menganti Beach.
Eat Mendoan or Seafood
Well, this is a combination of all you can do in Menganti Beach. After enjoying the scenery, being satisfied with taking pictures, waiting for sunrise or sunset, camping, and fishing. It is time to eat the fish that you catch or you can buy the fish. There are fish auction places and stalls that sell seafood. Don't like seafood? You should try a big mendoan (fried tempeh) as big as the plate. Warm mendoan with soy sauce or beans is delicious to eat after being tired of enjoying Menganti Beach.
