Why this beach is such a hidden gem and must be included in your\u00a0bucket list<\/em>\u00a0your vacation? Here are some reasons why:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. The Iconic Spruce Forest Passageway<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The main attraction that differentiates Cemara Beach from other beaches in Banyuwangi is the presence of surrounding 19,000 shrimp cypress trees<\/strong> that thrive along the coastline. These trees are densely planted so that their branches and leaves meet at the top, forming an elongated green tunnel or passageway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This phenomenon creates spot<\/em> A very dramatic photo. Sunlight that seeps in through the cracks in the fir leaves (the ray of light<\/em>) provides a magical feel that is perfect for photography. For those of you who want to photograph pre-wedding<\/em> or simply filling feed<\/em> Instagram, this hallway is the best backdrop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Turtle Conservation Educational Tour<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This beach is not just a place for recreation, but also a home for protected animals. Cemara Beach is one of the favorite landing sites for sea turtles, especially the species of\u00a0Olive Ridley Turtle<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Green Turtle<\/strong>, to lay eggs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is a semi-natural turtle breeding center managed by the Pantai Rejo Joint Business Group (KUB). Visitors can see the process of hatching eggs to see baby turtles (hatchlings) in a holding tank before being released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you come in the right season (usually mid-year), you'll have the opportunity to join the hatchling release. This is a very valuable educational experience, especially for children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Cool Picnic Ambience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Unlike the hot beaches in general, Cemara Beach is very shady. The sea breeze that blows through the pine trees creates a cool air that makes you feel at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many local tourists come with mats and packed lunches to have a picnic under the shade of the pine trees. The atmosphere is calm, far from the hustle and bustle of the city, although the location is actually very close to the city center of Banyuwangi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Stunning Sunrise View<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Because it faces east (Bali Strait), Cemara Beach is one of the most popular beaches in Bali.\u00a0spot<\/em>\u00a0best for sunrise hunting (sunrise<\/em>) in Banyuwangi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The silhouettes of the cypress trees against the backdrop of the orange sky and blue sea present an unbelievably beautiful natural painting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The History of Rejo Beach to Cemara Beach<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A little flashback to add insight, this beach was once called\u00a0Rejo Beach<\/strong>. In the past, this area was very arid and often experienced severe abrasion due to the waves of the Bali Strait. In 2011, local fishermen together with the government and the Fisheries Service began reforestation by planting thousands of shrimp cypress seedlings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This plant was chosen for its ability to withstand wind and sand. Unexpectedly, this environmental conservation effort actually gave birth to a new tourist destination which is now one of the prima donnas of Banyuwangi tourism. The transformation from critical land to a beautiful urban forest is a testament to the success of community and government collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
