Also called Samudra Beach. Performance Waves for City Boys. About 50 km from Bogor (the last 20 km is a long and winding road through Sundanese hill-country). The sound of open sea waves ricocheting off Pelabuhan Ratu‘s hard-packed sands will pump you up and serve as a portent of great West Java surfing. Featuring vicious riptides and big walls of water with nowhere to go. Alternatively skip this non-directional stuff and head a few kilometers due west to the sleepy fishing and rice growing village Cimaja Beach.

Parks & Nature
Around 87 hectares of gardens on the spacious grounds of the Istana Bogor (Presidential Palace}. With more than 15,000 species of trees and plants. Highlights are the Footstool palm native to Indonesia, which tops 40m. Graceful pandan trees (look out for their unusual aerial roots) and some huge agave (used to make tequila) and cacti in the Mexican section. Drop by the Orchid House, with giant water lilies over a metre across, and look out for monitor lizards, exotic birdlife and deer. Crowds on Sunday, but quiet at most other times. The southern gate is the main entrance; other gates are only open on Sunday and holidays. Grand Garden Cafe offers a great lunch.
