Watu Parunu
Another white sand beach, but this time it’s without the cliff. Watu Parunu is the very materialization of the word ‘picturesque’. If you view it from the nearby hill, you can see the sea meet the long crescent-shaped beach. In the background, there are even more green hills, creating a really wonderful panorama.
Walakiri Mangrove Beach
The mangrove area on this beach is really different from most of the mangrove forest in Indonesia. In the mangrove area, you can usually see tall green foliage dominating the landscape. However, in Walakiri, the mangrove is rather sparse and old. The trees are cartoon-like with crooked branches here and there. During the sunset, this beach becomes the perfect place to relax or taking pictures.
Tarimbang Beach
Even though the access to Tarimbang is a bit difficult, but there are steady numbers of tourists that come here. This beach has white sand and white cliffs with green hills surrounding it. However, the most interesting part is its nine rolls of a wave. In other words, this is a great surfing beach. Even if you are not a surfing enthusiast, you can still enjoy this pristine beach.
Mananga Aba
Located on the north coast of Sumba, Mananga Aba is also often called Kita Beach. The characteristic is similar to many other beaches on this island. It has a beautiful white sandy beach.
