Pasir Putih Beach - Lunyuk

Another white sand beach that is worth visit and write about.

That’s what i thought when i 1st saw a picture of Pasir Putih Beach a friend posted on Facebook. I immediately tried to find more info about it, asking friends, googling, searching on Instagram,,not too much info that i got of course but the village name, that was i need then decided to go there with a friend. 

Pantai Pasir Putih or Whitesand Beach is located in Brang Lamar Village, Lunyuk District. From Sumbawa Besar to Lunyuk is like 3,5 hours driving. Even tho i was sleeping along the way but yeah the road is good even until the beach. Well we went to the wrong direction at 1st but it was just because i was asleep and my friend didn’t wanna wake me up to ask where the beach was and tried to find it by himself using maps but when i woke up and realized we were in the middle of nowhere, we started to ask some people about the right direction to the village. We drove about another 20 minutes and then it was just that easy, we found the beach which is exactly on the road side. 

The beach was really nice but the parking area was just so bad, it was sooo dirty, plastic everywhere. But we were lucky because it was only us there at the time, people just passed by and most of them didn’t even look at the beach at all (yea i paid attention to that), they just kept driving. I was pretty surprised,,i mean were they just bored of that beach cause they could see it everyday or they just didn’t care about the beach or i was the one who over dramatic about it?. But the beach was so peaceful and pretty. If i brought my hammock that i would set it up there and it would be perfect, but i didn’t. 

So we were just taking a rest a lil bit and then i started to walk to the beach. But my friend was too tired after long drive so i took some pictures at the beach by myself using camera timer -,-. The sands felt so soft under my feet and it was so white, well i didn’t really understand about how good camera works so the camera setting kinda change the sands color on my pictures. If it wasn’t too hot i would lay there sunbathing, but living in Sumbawa is like sunbathing everyday so i don’t need more of it. But i did it for a picture tho. Well that’s what i like about most of Sumbawa beaches. It’s like your private beach that you can take any kind of picture without worrying that someone will walk behind you. So i was being my own model and thanks to Timer -,-

I didn't wanna get into the water tho, people always say that south beach is pretty dangerous, big waves could come suddenly and blabla, since i can't swim so i just sat there enjoying the beach.

When my friend woke up, we drove a lil bit further to see if there was gonna be another beach or good spot but we didn't really find anything and didn't drive that far cause we were both tired. So we drove back to Sumbawa and i was back to my sleep along the way while my friend driving and got annoyed by his lazy travel mate next to him :(
