MEMANCING

Fishing is a favorite pastime for many people because of the opportunity it offers to be outdoors away from the stress of city life, to enjoy nature, and to spend relaxing time with family and friends. Below are some recommendations in the Jogja area.

Turi and Cangkringan sub-districts, Sleman
Located 16 km north of Jogja this area has many fishing pond restaurants. Special local dishes are prepared from fish freshly caught on-site.

Kyai Langgeng, Magelang
This area has a fishing pond and offers canoeing, an aquarium, swimming pool, go-cart track, collections of rare plants and dinosaur statues.

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.
