Liang Beach
Pantai Liang
A long white-sand beach in the northeast of Ambon Island, with crystal-clear water. It was once named by the United Nations Development Programme as one of Indonesia's most beautiful beaches.
Liang Beach lies in the northeast of Ambon Island, in Salahutu Regency, about 40 kilometers from the city centre. Its fine white sand stretches for several kilometers, and the sea takes on a clear blue-green tone in the sunlight. The shallows are good for swimming and snorkelling. In 1990 it was named by the United Nations Development Programme as one of Indonesia's most beautiful beaches. Near the beach is the Liang ferry terminal for trips to Seram Island, and its wooden boardwalk is a popular photo spot. Local families picnic here on weekends, while weekdays are very quiet. The drive from the city takes about 1 hour, and the beach can be combined with Natsepa Beach in a day trip.
