Tanjung Tinggi Beach
Pantai Tanjung Tinggi
A white-sand bay ringed by giant granite boulders. It was the filming location of the film Laskar Pelangi and is Belitung's most iconic beach.
Tanjung Tinggi lies on the north coast of Belitung. Clusters of smooth granite boulders, several stories tall, sit between white sand and emerald water. They form several small bays enclosed by rocks. The sea is calm and clear, which makes it good for swimming. The 2008 Indonesian film Laskar Pelangi (The Rainbow Troops) was shot here and made the beach famous. You can climb among the boulders for photos and watch the sunset. Along the shore you will find coconut groves and small seafood restaurants. Entry is free. The beach is about 30 kilometers from Tanjung Pandan, so you need to hire a car or rent a motorbike. It gets crowded with local visitors on weekends.
