Destination Story & Highlights
The Island-Split Beach of Gunungkidul
A unique beach split by a small coral island in its center, creating one calm swimming side and one wild surf side — a geological marvel of Gunungkidul's coastline.
"The protective coral island in the middle of Drini Beach creates a natural lagoon on one side, making it one of the safest swimming beaches in Gunungkidul. Fishermen use the sheltered side to dock their traditional wooden boats."
