The foreign tourists were so happy to mingle together on the surface of clear water and blue. Occasionally they float for a moment, then lifted his body, standing on a surfboard, and finally moving undulating waves follow the direction towards the coast.
When the water receded, they swim toward the middle of the ocean while watching the movement of water. As soon as the waves rolled on, they took off to follow the movement of water into the shore.
That's the sight that stands out in Paradise Beach, Gulf Ekas, Hamlet Lendang Slag, Pemongkong Village, East Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara. Gulf waters are like most southern island of Lombok are dealing directly with the Indonesian Ocean, has become an alternative surfers. Kute Beach area, Cape An, Gerupuk, and Mawon, in Central Lombok, and desert-Bangko Bangko point in West Lombok is another option for these surfers.
Surfing locations that generally have a beautiful coastline, clear water, and any such nuance seemed adventures, such as the Gulf region Ekas.
Kerry Black, an expert on artificial reefs for surfing the origin of New Zealand, said the waves in the area around the Gulf of Ekas very good and liked the surfers. "Look from a distance, the hills like a princess was lying," Black said, pointing to the group of hills stretching from north and west to the Gulf Ekas. "If standing on the hill, you like to enjoy Heaven on the planet," said Black added.
He also detailed the adventures nuances intended. At night in this place and the sound of the waves that night bersahutan animals makes the heart lulled. Unfortunately, to get to the place, people must pass through the road along the 12 kilometers from the hamlet to hamlet Lendang Slag Jor the asphalt was peeling and potholes.
After that, the road that is just a dirt road lined with shrubs and hills and could only pass one four-wheeled vehicles. When the rain soaked streets, ordinary four-wheeled vehicles that are not secured by a double axle unable to pass through the area. In addition to quiet residents, in that location any distance settlements citizens generally were far apart from each other.
For those who like to do snorkeling or diving, where it is not too interesting. View under the water was mediocre, compared to less diverse attractions Terawangan Gili, Lombok Barat. Grouper, yellow tail, sea catfish, lobster, octopus, ornamental fish (clawn fish), and red coral (coral red) fan-shaped indeed there, but practically the whole scene for granted.
Now this is a wave that becomes the main attraction of tourists to visit Paradise Beach or Beach Ekas the sandy beaches are both white. In the waters of the bay, a distance of 70 kilometers southeast of Mataram, at certain seasons, a high wave or waves reaching five meters.
In the bay that had swept the tsunami in the year 1977 there are two types of waves, two waves of three waves left and right, with the form of pipes (pipes), walls (wall), and heavy. On the left the waves, surfers will usually be pushed / slid to the left. Something similar took place at the right wave.
According to tour guides there, the length of stay of foreign tourists in the region's longest 21 days. They lived in an inn which construction is still in progress, although only providing 11 rooms.
Nevertheless, the limited facilities that are not obstacles for surfers. "They even sometimes sleep huddled in the inn's restaurant, other than some are bringing your tent or sleep in the hammock (hammock) are tied to two trees," said Naim, a tour guide.
He added, every month there are about 50 foreign tourists staying in it to stay around for at least four days. Therefore, for the more adventurous, why not try the beauty of Paradise Beach.
