The location of Torohudan beach in Kanigoro village, Saptosari sub-district, Gunungkidul district, Special Region of Yogyakarta, is hidden behind the fields and rice fields of residents. This beach can be said to be a new touris attraction but has become a favorite for anglers. One of the reasons why not many visitors come to visit this beach is because of its remote location and difficult access. Vehicles can only reach the parking area, beyond that visitors have to walk through fields or rice fields with steep and up and down roads for approximately 10-15 minutes to the beach.
As soon as you enter the Torohudan beach area, you will be greeted with a cool atmosphere thanks to the trees growing around it and the view of the blue and calming sea water. On the right and left sides of the beach there are two cliffs that flank this beach. The sand is white and tends to be rough. The calm waves are safe for swimming or just playing in the water. The calming sound of the waves, the wide expanse of sand and the gentle sea breeze really bring a peaceful sensation. The stunning natural beauty of the beach that spoils the eyes has a positive effect on mental and physical health.
Surrounded by cliffs and green trees adds to the beauty of the beach. In addition to taking pictures, visitors to Torohudan beach can also enjoy various interesting activities such as swimming, playing in the water and also camping. Torohudan beach is indeed an ideal place to enjoy the natural beauty at night. In addition, the view of the sunset at Torohudan beach is very beautiful and romantic.
If you want to visit this beach, you must pass through a path and rocks that are quite steep and extreme and take time because they require caution. However, the difficult journey will not be in vain when you reach the beach area, because you will be presented with the view of a very beautiful beach. It is better to avoid coming during the rainy season, because access is rather difficult to pass.
