Yogyakarta is not only known as a cultural city but also offers breathtaking natural beauty, especially in the Gunungkidul region. One of the beaches that has become a favorite for adventurous travelers is Timang Beach. This beach presents mesmerizing views of the southern sea and exhilarating experiences that will get your adrenaline pumping.
Location and Access to Timang Beach
Timang Beach is located in Purwodadi Village, Gunungkidul Regency, Yogyakarta. It is approximately 35 kilometers from the city center, and the journey takes around 2.5 to 3 hours by private vehicle. The last few kilometers are challenging, but the effort is rewarded with stunning views.
For those who prefer a hassle-free experience, Shakran Kreasi provides comfortable transportation services, including air-conditioned vehicles and experienced local guides.

Unlike other beaches in Gunungkidul, Timang Beach is known for its steep limestone cliffs and the large waves of the southern sea. Its dramatic landscape is perfect for those who enjoy challenging natural destinations.
Traditional Gondola Experience
The main attraction at Timang Beach is the traditional gondola, which connects the mainland to Timang Island. Originally used by fishermen to catch lobster, the gondola now offers thrill-seekers a heart-pounding adventure. This 100-meter crossing is an unforgettable experience for those looking for excitement.
