Klayar Beach is a beach that is very beautiful and exotic, and probably a lot of friends who do not know about this island so I input in the list of tourist places hidden in Indonesia.
Klayar located approximately 45 miles west of Pacitan or precisely located in the village of Kalak, sub Doonorojo, Pacitan and can be reached by motorbike or car. The journey to get there which is full of sharp bends, which go up and down the hills and there are some rise and fall is quite extreme which would make the blood of friends to race faster.
On a typical day (not a holiday), friends will probably rarely see tourists who come to visit. It was not because the beaches are less compelling, but because the beach is still a few people who know. Though this beach has a lot of beauty Klayar very fascinating, and perhaps even more dazzling than Parang Tritis which was already well known.
At the eastern end of friends will meet a very charming lagoon. Flanked by two clusters of rocks, it looks beautiful lagoon with crystal clear that the waves hit the rock wall and then break down and spinning in the white sand. Stretches of white sand with crystal-clear waves breaking on the shore, flanked by the rock at the right and left. If observed closely one of them similar to the shape of the Sphinx. Among the rock there is a gap which at times can give up like a fountain whose height can reach up to 10 meters.
The fountain is derived from the large waves that some water got under the rock and then gush out like a fountain. The fountain that appears is accompanied whistling noise that sounded like a flute, so often referred to as the sea flute.
Because the beach is not managed well and professionally, so that the access road was not too inadequate. But do not worry, you can use a motorcycle, and it will be better and faster because the road leading to the beach is still narrow, and if friends using the car will certainly be slower. But before the friends decided to use a motorcycle, you should first check the condition of the motor friends.
Hopefully in the future, the Government will pay more attention to the real sights very charming and has a lot of charm of this tour, and could be better managed and professional, so that would attract local and foreign tourists.
