I don’t know why i never paid attention to Sandropole beach before
even tho my friends mentioned about it several times. I guess its also cause i
never really saw any pictures of it. But i’m glad that i finally went there and
it is just another cool place in Sumbawa i wanna recommend.
Few weeks ago a friend forced me to go snorkeling to this beach
and after asking so many questions about it i decided to join him. Located in
Tanjung Menangis which is just like 20 minutes driving from Sumbawa Besar. We
stopped at someone’s plantation area actually which is exactly in front of the
beach so we walked along the shore and through the forest for about 20 minutes.
I don’t know any other way to get there yet besides through this person’s
plantation area.
Kinda difficult to explain about the route or if i bring someone
else there. When i went there we took time to find the right direction through
those thorny plants that scratch our body along the way in the forest. I hope
someone put some signs or maybe next time i go there, i’d love to do that.
When we finally found the place, i was like ‘how come i never came
here before?’ :o From the cliff the view was so nice, the water was so clean that
morning. It was just so peaceful, and again no other visitors which was really
good, only 3 of us at that time. Then i climbed down the cliff and get to the
beach. I love that it was just a small beach line surrounded by the cliff.
The underwater was even more beautiful, seriously!. So 3 of us
were snorkeling while one of my friends always swimming next to me helping me
with the float tube, we saw a baby shark swimming under us. I was stuck between
excited and scared, so when my friend wanted to get closer to the shark, i said
no cause i was lil bit scared, i was actually scared more if my friends left me
alone with the float tube in the middle of the ocean instead of the baby shark.
Since my friends were so nice so they didn’t chase the shark but staying with
me instead, i knew that they kinda regret bringing me there tho -,-.

But i felt so itchy all over my body so i decided to stop
snorkeling even tho i still wanted to explore more. I already annoyed my
friends enough by always swimming by my side so i went back to the shore and 4
other friends already came to find us. We supposed to go together but they were
late -,-.
Even tho
i annoyed them so much but my friends still let me use their beautiful pictures
of the beach and the underwater here on my blog tho. I actually have my own
underwater camera but it was too difficult to bring everything in the water
when i can’t even swim. So thanks for both of them for their beautiful pictures
\\(^o^)//

I prolly
will go there often from now on since it’s very close and pretty. It could be a
perfect place for camping, well my friends did and they loved it. They even had
Underwater flag ceremony there on Independence Day. Oh and i made a video of
the beach, if you wanna see it, just click here . Enjoy it \\(^o^)//
