MTC MEDIA – Malang. The exploration of beach in Malang Regency seems never-ending. There is undiscovered beaches are waiting to be visited. Some unexplored beaches are generally due to poor road access. One of them, people find, is Banyu Meneng Beach. Banyu Meneng Beach is located about 100 meters from Kondang Merak Beach, located in Bandungrejo Village, Bantur Subdistrict, Malang Regency, East Java.
Best Way to Reach Banyu Meneng Beach
The route is same way as to Kondang Merak Beach. Head south to Gadang if you are traveling from the center of Malang City. After passing Gadang, follow the directions to Bululawang, and once at the Krebet T-junction, follow the directions to Gondanglegi or Balekambang Beach. Once at the Balekambang JLS (South Crossing Lane) intersection, turn right.
In order to drive to Banyu Meneng Beach, you should pay attention for preparation of your vehicle, because this way quite far, around 66 km from the city. In addition, after the Balekambang, the road is in poor condition, especially during the rainy season.
Facility and Prices
As for the facilities, the beach itself have low maintenance. However, basic facilities such as toilets, stalls, and prayer rooms are available. To access the facilities and beauty of Banyu Meneng beach, you only need to pay an entrance ticket of IDR 10,000 per person. However, if you arrive during the weekend, the ticket price rises to Rp15,000.
The Panorama
A couple of large, breezy trees lining the shore create a serene atmosphere on the beach, which in Indonesian means calm water. The coastline is not so long. However, its beauty is equally as beautiful as beaches that have long coastlines such as Balekambang.
Snowy white sand matched with greenish sea water makes a beautiful color gradation. The coastline which rarely visited makes the sand remains clean.
Photogenic Hills
However, the hill on the west side of the beach can also be used as an interesting photo spot. At the hill, there is a beach landmark in the form of a monument that reads Banyu Meneng. The location is a favorite location for travelers to take selfies.
For those people who love splashing around in the water or swimming, this beach is the perfect destination for your recreation. While most beaches in Malang Regency have big waves, at Banyu Meneng Beach, the waves are calm. This is because the location of this beach is in a bay, so the waves from the ocean are still blocked by the coral hills.
