Karapyak Beach
Pantai Karapyak
A reef-rock beach east of Pangandaran. At low tide a broad coral reef platform is exposed, and the sunset here is beautiful.
Karapyak Beach is in Kalipucang district, about 15 km from Pangandaran town. The coast is made of coral rock, and at low tide the reef platform emerges, where you can observe tide-pool life. There are simple snack stalls and viewpoints by the sea. In the evening, the setting sun reflected on the shallow reef flats makes for striking photos. The waves are big and the rocks slippery, so swimming is not recommended. Pay attention to tide times.
