Here is the list of 5 Beaches near Surabaya

1. Kenjeran Beach

3.0 /5

One of the prime tourist attractions of Surabaya, the Kenjeran Beach is favoured due to a large number of Chinese buildings present around its coastline. Most tourists visit the beach to witness the lovely Chinese architecture. There are also a lot of food stalls available on the beach as well as a children play area just around the corner.

Bentar beach is famous for its wooden deck extending to the sea, sitting on which one can enjoy a beautiful sunset at the horizon and click beautiful photographs. You can enjoy fishing, several water adventure activities and go on a boat ride to witness terrifying whale sharks. There is a hill beside this beach, where you can hike and further enjoy views.

3. Delegan Beach

Located in the East Java Province of Indonesia, Delegan beach attracts a lot of tourists because of its white sand, blue waters and cheap seafood.

5. Nepa Beach

Nepa Beach gives a very natural vibe, with its abundance in plants and wildlife. Beware of monkeys as they can snatch your belongings. You would not find many tourists around; hence, it is perfect for chilling and spending some time with yourself.

East Java rewards the drive more than the city does. Cities in Indonesia covers where else to go, and islands of Indonesia the coast further afield.

FAQs on Beaches near Surabaya

Does Surabaya have a beach?

Kenjeran, on the eastern edge of the city, which is a local recreation area with a long bridge and food stalls rather than a swimming beach. It is worth an evening rather than a day.

Which beach near Surabaya is best?

Bentar in Probolinggo, about two hours east, for the mangrove boardwalk, and Delegan in Gresik for the closest swimmable sand at around ninety minutes. Neither is spectacular, but both beat the city.

Is the water good for swimming?

Variable. The north coast of Java is shallow and silty, so this is not a swimming destination in the way Bali or Lombok are. Go for the setting and the food rather than the water.

What else is worth doing from Surabaya?

Mount Bromo, three to four hours south-east, is the real reason most travellers pass through. Madura island across the bridge is the other easy trip and sees very few foreign visitors.

When should I go?

The dry season from May to September. East Java's rains from November to March make the coastal roads slow and the beaches grey, and Bromo trips are frequently clouded out.
