PULAU WEH > BALEK GUNUNG


Click to enlargeOn the west coast, just opposite Gapang is Balek Gunung, also called Windlong, a bad translation of Lhong Angen. Balek Gunung means behind the mountain.

Lhong Angen means a passage through the mountain where the wind blows. The area can be reached by foot from Gapang and even from Iboih if you like long walks.

The coast consists of stones and has a seasonal beach that disappears app. the second half of the year. When it is there, it is extremely beautiful. A few caves are nearby. Goa Sarang can only be reached by swimming or boat at low tide.

Goa Kamprek is three small caves a few hundred meters away. The area is good for fishing, seeing Mantas, snorkeling and enjoying the solitude and the sunsets. The bungalows that once were here are gone, but a new hotel has opened.
