One of the nicest beaches in Flores has a split personality – literally. About 5km west of Pantai Naga, look for a small partially paved road that runs for 2km through a cocoa plantation to a stunning double bay. Facing a promontory, on the right is a perfect crescent of sand with calm, protected water. On the left is another perfect crescent, but with lively surf and views out to sea.
Vendors offer cold drinks, beer, coconuts, snacks and grilled fish (15,000Rp) under shady trees.
