Pulo Manuk Beach, Lebak-Banten (an exoticism in solitude)

Banten is a province located west tip of the island of Java, Indonesia. hear the word 'Banten' itself, we will be reminded of a kingdom that started around the year 1526, When the kingdom of Demak expand its influence to the western coastal area of Java. Banten storing many kinds of artistic culture, language, cuisine and traditional arts of mystical. Besides Banten also famous beaches lure charm, here I bring you a review of-a beach that also listed in beautiful beaches in Banten-Pulo Manuk.

Pulo Manuk is located in Sawarna village district of Bayah, Lebak-Banten. Pulo Manuk is about 1 kilometer from the Cipamadangan beach. The location itself is located right on the edge of Sawarna village main street , so if we were coming from the direction of Bayah we must have pass this beach.

Deserted coastline plus landscape view on a small coral island separated from the mainland, what a stunning complement to a contemplation of souls longing souls.

(Ok this is a bit corny or exaggerated @_@) The loneliness that felt at the time peddling feet on the sand of pulo manuk beach is probably because not too many people are visiting this place.

You can reach this beach by using several routes:  

Jakarta–Bogor–Parung kuda–Cikidang-Pelabuan Ratu-Cisolok-Pulo Manuk  

Jakarta–Serang–Pandeglang-Saketi-Malingping–bayah-Pulo Manuk  

And how about the inn? Restaurant? Transportation? If you intend to add Pulo Manuk Beach on the 'roaming Banten' agenda that belong to you (you should consider to write a kind of this agenda :D) I'll give you two alternate plans 'mind preparation' to this place: 

1. If you are someone who can't be far from the warmth of bed lodging and travel as a way to use your recreation, then you should choose one between the two cities (Serang or Bogor) as the destination, then select a hotel around, rent a car and find a guide who can take you to this place XD ...or 
2. If you are a person who love adventure, I will offer you a pretty good route for backpacking: Tanah Abang railway station, Jakarta - Rangkas Bitung - Mandala bus station - find transportation to Bayah (you will pass Gunung Kencana and Malimping). When you reach Bayah, you can hitch a ride to the Pulo Manuk beach or simply find OJEK to go to it.

You're not to go die alone. Fill you loneliness and Happy travelling!! ^_^
