Seger Beach
Beach in Kuta (Islands).
Seger Beach lies about 2 km east of Kuta Lombok, at the foot of Seger Hill (Bukit Seger), a group of small green hills next to the Mandalika racing circuit. Its white sand faces a coral reef that is partly exposed at low tide, with a surf break offshore, and the hills are a short climb for views that are popular at sunset. It is a main site of the Bau Nyale festival, when crowds gather each February or March to catch sea worms linked to the legend of Princess Mandalika.
