and to spend relaxing time with family and friends.

Wedi
Ombo Beach
Wedi Ombo Beach, in Jepitu village, Girisubo subdistrict,
about 40 km southeast of Wonosari, is a wide bay
with white sand sloping gently to the sea surrounded
by limestone hills. The sounds of the waves against
the beach and the refreshing wind wafting through
the palm leaves create a relaxing atmosphere.
The bay can be seen from the hill or even from
the shore, where sunset scenery is outstanding.
For visitors who enjoy fishing, Wedi Ombo Beach
is a perfect choice.
Once a year the traditional Ngalangi fishing ceremony
is here. In this ceremony, the Wedi Ombo people
take the root of a tree called Wawar
from Kedungdowok hill and together they pull it
into the sea to be used as a fishing net.
Nearby are Gremeng and Jungwok Beaches and Kalong
Island, a small island inhabited by thousands
of bats. This island can be reach by following
a pathway about 1.5 km to the east. |

South
of Jogja
Most of southern beaches of Pacitan (East
Java), Gunung Kidul, Bantul and Kulon Progo are
favorite places for fishing hobbyists. Boats and
supplies can be found at local fisherman villages.
In many areas, freshly caught fish will be prepared
to customer's specifications on-site. |
