This coastal paradise, discovered around 1927 by a Dutch national, is a part of the Meru Betiri National Park and is dedicated to the intensive preservation and observation of turtle eggs and hatchlings. Sukamade Beach is home to four distinct turtle species: the green turtle (Chelonia mydas), the olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea), the hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata), and the leatherback turtle (Demochelys coriacea). While all these species are incredible, the green turtle is the most frequently encountered.

Sukamade Beach is situated in Rajegwesi Village, Pesanggaran Subdistrict, Banyuwangi, East Java. The journey to this remote destination is an adventure in itself. The rugged terrain calls for a sturdy double-garden type vehicle, perfect for off-road travel. Along the 30-kilometer journey, you’ll navigate winding roads, steep inclines, and bumpy, muddy tracks that add to the thrill.

Before reaching your destination, you’ll pass by two other stunning beaches: Rajegwesi Beach, known for being the fishermen’s harbor in Sarongan Village, and Teluk Hijau Beach, famous for its crystal-clear emerald waters. As you near your destination, you’ll even need to cross a river, with depths ranging from 40 cm to 1 meter. Can you imagine the excitement and anticipation of this journey? The fatigue of the trip will quickly fade away once you arrive at your destination.
