 Gapang
is one of the two most visited beaches on Pulau Weh. It has a wider
variety of bungalows than any other beach, from very simple huts to
air conditioned and TV-equipped bungalows.
Besides snorkeling, diving, hanging out and swimming you can also
walk to Balek Gunung. It is not too far. For seeing flying foxes,
waterfall and jungle; ask in Limbo Restaurant.
Do a JUNGLE TREK to Gunung Keris, the highest peak on Pulau
Weh. See the protected forest, birds, butterflies etc. Contact
Mustafa in Gapang on +6285277442222.
FOOD
There are several restaurants directly on the beach, such as Mama
Jungle, Zero, Limbo, Barracuda and Dang Dang Na. International and
Western style food available in all places. Don't forget to try
Naguna Warkop & Nasi up on the main road. They serve both price
worthy and nice Indonesian food.

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.
