Long-term monthly averages: air from NASA POWER (2001–2020), sea from NOAA OISST (1991–2020); records are the extremes of 2001–2020. How the index works.
When to go
The beach-day index peaks in July–September; August scores 9.3/10 with highs of 29 °C, sea at 25.0 °C and 31 mm of rain.
That matches the median for beaches in Indonesia in the same month.
Across the year the sea averages 27.4 °C, warmer than 84% of the coastal beaches in the atlas.
January is the wettest month (346 mm) and August the driest (31 mm); the yearly total is about 2,160 mm.
Daylight runs from 11.7 hours in June to 12.6 hours in December; in mid-August the sun rises at 05:47 and sets at 17:37 local time.
Orientation, sun and shore
The shore faces south-south-west (200°). Open water fills about 42% of the horizon close by, which makes it an open stretch of shore.
The sun sets over the sea in September–March; in mid-December it goes down at 17:50 local time on a bearing of 246°.
Straight out to the south-south-west there is open water for more than 2,000 km, so the beach is exposed to long ocean swell. The beach is on an island of about 127,223 km².
About 1 km offshore the sea is roughly 31 m deep and 149 m at 3 km. Behind the beach the ground is about 26 m above sea level 500 m inland and 67 m at 1.5 km.
Within 1 km, the land is 82% tree cover, 7% cropland and 5% built-up land (satellite land-cover map, 2021): a largely natural setting. Water makes up 44% of that circle.

- Crop 7%
