Boom Beach in Penggajawa, East Nusa Tenggara, offers a tranquil coastal experience with sweeping views of the Flores Sea. The beach is known for its spacious, uncrowded shoreline, though visitors note inconsistent cleanliness and a laid-back atmosphere[1][3]. Recent improvements include better organization and cultural events like the Gandrung Sewu dance festival, enhancing its appeal[3]. The location provides a serene escape with direct sightlines to neighboring islands, though amenities remain basic, catering primarily to daytime visitors[1][3].
The beach’s charm lies in its simplicity, with minimal commercialization and a focus on natural beauty. While some areas appear untidy, the affordable entrance fee (around 7,500 IDR) and non-pushy vendors make it accessible for families and solo travelers alike[1][3]. Horseback riding along the shore and small-scale recreational facilities add to its rustic appeal[1].
