Pandan Beach
REVIEWS
From the far left side of Crystal Bay, take the stairs up. This will lead you to Pandan Beach. There are lots and lots of stairs to go up, then a straight trail, follow it, then again lots and lots of stairs to go down to the beach. There is only one warung there that sells coconut for 30k, so did not buy it. I have had young ones for 15k to 20k. So this is like double the amount. There is a swing and it is not a very well-known place. So there were only 12 people I think when I was there for like 2 whole hours. It was peaceful. Must visit if you can do the walking and climbing for 20 minutes or so.

We walked from Crystal Bay Beach to Pandan Beach. It takes about 15 minutes to walk, you have to go up and down some steep stairs. No problem though, we managed it with two children aged 9 & 7 😉

Magnificent beach with few people and very peaceful, with a very beautiful sunset between the rocks. The beach is accessible from Crystal Bay with a path all the way to the left on the beach.

Practically without people and where you can find turtles a few meters from the beach. It has less protection than Crystal Bay so the waves and currents can be dangerous if the day is rough.

Great beach! Few tourists, not much going on even in high season. Only 5 umbrellas and 10 loungers. Costs half of the overcrowded Crystal Bay. Absolute insider tip!
