About Sandy Bay

Sandy Bay is a sandy beach about 130 m long, 1.2 km from Lembongan (East). It lies at the head of a cove that opens to the west-southwest, which shelters it from waves coming in from the sides; wind and swell from the west-southwest reach it directly. OpenStreetMap shows 10 places to eat or drink within 400 m, 12 hotels or apartments within 600 m, toilets and parking nearby.
