Tanjung Aan Beach

Unknown to some, the charming island of Lombok encompasses some breath-taking beaches. And Tanjung Aan, situated on the South Coast, is for sure the most picturesque of them all. Pristine white sand, crystal clear water and flourishing palm trees adorn the 2 separate bays that make up this paradise beach.

Lombok is renowned for its epic surfing opportunities, and Tanjung Aan is a popular spot for beginners. Although we are only spectators of the sport, it was fun watching some of the newbies taking to the waves. There is also a spectacular viewpoint that is well worth checking out when you visit.

TIP: Be prepared for hawkers along the beach that can be pretty relentless in trying to sell you merchandise.

Best Time to Visit: Between May & September.

How to get there: From Kuta, it is around a 20-30 minute drive to Tanjung Aan. Popular transport options are to rent a scooter or hire a driver from town.

Where to stay: A popular place to stay in Kuta is Pipes Hostel. Offering mixed dorm-style accommodation, all guests have access to a pool and skate bowl! Beds from £5.67 a night.
