Natsepa Beach
Pantai Natsepa
Ambon's most popular beach outside the city, with shallow, gentle water for swimming and rows of small stalls along the shore selling the island's signature fruit salad, rujak.
Natsepa Beach lies in the village of Suli, about 15 km northeast of Ambon city, facing Baguala Bay. Its soft white sand and calm, shallow water make it the first choice for locals on weekends, who come to swim and watch the sunset.
Rows of small stalls along the beach sell rujak, a Maluku-style fruit salad served with a peanut and palm sugar dressing. It is practically a must-try when you visit. You can rent a swim ring or a small boat, and the beach charges a small entrance fee. A minibus or taxi from the city takes about 30 minutes. Natsepa can be combined with the Tulehu hot springs and Pombo Island for a full day trip on the eastern route.
