Marosi Beach
Pantai Marosi
A long white sand beach on the south coast of Lamboya, with steady surf, surf camps and boutique resorts. It is the top choice for a relaxed trip along the southern route of Sumba.
Marosi Beach is a stretch of white sand several kilometres long on the south coast of Sumba, facing the Indian Ocean. The swells are steady, making it a favourite spot for surfers, and there are surf camps and boutique resorts nearby. The wide, flat sand is ideal for walking, horse riding and watching the sunset, and you may occasionally see locals herding livestock by the sea. It is about an hour's drive from Waikabubak and sits on the southern route alongside the Pasola festival grounds and the Wanokaka coast. The offshore currents are strong, so swim only in areas recommended by your hotel or surf camp.
