Keusik Luhur Beach in Kertamukti Village, Pangandaran


Featuring many beautiful beaches, Pangandaran Regency would be everyone’s favorite when it comes to a vacation. For instance, there is Keusik Luhur Beach which belongs to Sukaresik Village. It becomes a pride of Cimerak Sub-District, as well. In terms of language, Keusik means “sand” and Luhur means “high”. The locals named it that way because the strong waves of the sea bring up the sand even to the top of coral reefs. With such uniqueness, more people are interested to visit the site and conduct numerous fun activities like photography, relaxation, beach walking, climbing the reefs, etc.

The Nuance
In terms of nuance, Keusik Luhur Beach combines stunning panorama of the sea and a majestic landscape of mountains. With such breathtaking scenery, no one would get bored when spending hours at the beach. The next feature of the beach is the formation of coral reefs which are big and tall. On top of that, the sound of splashing waves creates a comfy nuance on the site. The fact is that they are the south sea waves. No wonder, their size, and power are undoubtful strong. This also explains why swimming is prohibited due to its high risk.

Exploring Keusik Luhur Beach
The beauty of Keusik Luhur Beach represents similar characteristics to that of Tanah Lot in Bali. Knowing this fact, tourists are likely to take pictures in front of such majestic natural attraction. The hill is indeed tall and it has the steepness of about 90 degrees. The best part is that tourists are allowed to climb the hill and witness a better view from above. The breezy wind and the sound of the waves make it more interesting, as well. From the top of the hill, the sky and sea panorama appears the most beautiful. It even looks better either during sunrise or sunset.

Even though the sea appears appealing to swimmers and surfers, the management does not allow visitors to get in the water and enjoy those activities. They warn about the rocky corals scattered on the water. That means both surfing and swimming become a dangerous activity, even for professionals. As an alternative, Keusik Luhur Beach is suitable to conduct simple activities like beach walking and sightseeing. For this reason, carrying a camera becomes mandatory when exploring the beach. It helps tourists to spend hours without getting bored, for sure.

It is true Keusik Luhur Beach is located in a secluded area. This means the atmosphere is both peaceful and calm. No wonder, some visitors come to the location to relax, relieve stresses, and find peace during the holiday.
