Pink Beach from a private yacht
Updated 27 October 2026
Pink Beach is a swim and snorkel stop on day 2 where red coral fragments tint the sand pale pink. It is also called Long Beach. Reef sits close to shore, so most swimmers manage it, and the snorkelling is covered by the park ticket.
Shallow reef beside the sand
The sand is pale pink, its shade moving with the light and the tide, and broken red coral gives it the colour. Reef lies close to the shore, in water that runs between 1 and 8 metres deep with only a mild current, so the stop is rated easy and suits most swimmers in a party.
Pink Beach sits on day 2 of the 2D1N, 3D2N and 4D3N, and on the 1D route. The captain places it among the other day 2 stops on the day.

Kayak, paddle boat or the sand
Both yachts carry a kayak, a paddle boat and snorkelling equipment, free to use. A guest who prefers not to snorkel can take the kayak along the shore or sit on the sand while the others swim.
That matters in a mixed party. A principal who dislikes open water, a grandparent and two teenagers can all spend the stop in different ways without anyone waiting for anyone else.
Non-swimmers keep to the sand and the shallows. Snorkelling gear is on both yachts for every guest who wants it, so nobody needs to bring a mask unless they prefer their own.
Mornings, tide and a quiet hour
Mornings give calmer water and softer light. If the party wants a morning landing, say so in the brief and we pass it to the captain, who decides on the day. July and August are the busiest months at this beach, as they are across the park.
The beach is public, and other visitors share the sand. What the charter gives is the choice of when to go ashore within the captain's plan.
For the months with the clearest water, see the month guide, which also shows how the sea changes through the year.
Pink Beach from the tender
The party goes ashore by tender: a Yamaha 40 HP dinghy on Voyage 1 and a Yamaha 50 hp dinghy on Voyage 2. The crew sets the order of the runs.
From the water the beach is a strip of pale pink below a jagged green ridge, with turquoise shallows in front.
Snorkelling carries no separate park levy and is covered by the entry ticket. The park package we quote per guest already holds the ranger, the local levies and the entrance ticket of IDR 250,000 per foreign visitor per day (PP 36/2024). It is added to the boat price, unless your quote shows it as included.

FAQ
Is the sand really pink?
Pale pink, not bright pink. Fragments of red coral tint the sand, and the colour changes with the light and the tide. Expect a soft shade on a clear morning and less of it under cloud; no yacht can promise the colour for your day.
Can non-swimmers enjoy Pink Beach?
Yes. The stop is rated easy, the reef lies close to shore in shallow water, and both yachts carry a kayak and a paddle boat. Non-swimmers can sit on the sand, paddle along the shore or stay aboard while the others snorkel.
Is snorkelling covered by the park ticket?
Under the current rules the entry ticket covers snorkelling; there is no separate levy. Ranger fees and local levies sit in the park package, not on a bill of their own. We confirm every figure in the written quote.
