Yogyakarta's most beautiful beach
About Indrayanti Beach
Pantai Indrayanti is widely considered the most beautiful beach in the Yogyakarta region. Unlike the black sand of Parangtritis, Indrayanti features pristine white sand, clear turquoise water, and dramatic cliff scenery.
The beach is well-maintained with good facilities, beachfront restaurants serving fresh seafood, and umbrella rentals. It's perfect for swimming (in the right conditions), sunbathing, and enjoying spectacular sunsets.
