Indonesian proud to have Plengkung beach at the eastern end of Java. In addition to its beauty and naturalness, also coastal curvilinear length is one of the best surfing spots in the world. Beach Plengkung or more popularly called G-Land offers a haven for surfers to ride the waves incredible, global, and legendary.
Plengkung beach nicknamed "The Seven Giant Waves Wonder" by foreign surfers because the waves have a 7 to 6 feet in height.


There are several connotations of why the Coast arch-called G-Land. The letter 'G' to G-Land has three diverse understanding. First, for the initial letter of the word "Great" as a description of the waves are incredible. Second, for the initial letter of the word "Green" or sometimes "Green Land" because of its location not far from the old tropical rainforest expanse of green is National Park Alas Purwo. Third, referring to the 'G' to the initial letters of the word 'Grajagan,' a beach and harbor where fishing boats used to achieve Plengkung travelers. The term G-land is also significant because it is in the Gulf Plengkung Grajagan that resembles the letter G.

The uniqueness of the waves at G-Land is the new broke after 1 to 2 km from east to west with a height of 4-6 meters in 5 minute intervals. Under these conditions make proffesional surfers can enjoy the waves or "barrel" is longer and longer. It is therefore not surprising Plengkung already five times to host international surfing event.

With the formation of the giant waves came one after another and as many as 7 layers of tiered "go to left" makes it well suited surfers ridden lefty. This is what makes the G-Land into a dream world of international surfing and one of the best surf beaches in the world has.
In addition to the Plengkung, only Hawaii, Australia, and South Africa who have a challenging waves like that. Waves at Plengkung is second only to Hawaii. Hawaii itself has waves continuously throughout the year. Peak waves in Plengkung only in certain months between April and August.


Bob Laverty and Bill Boyum was the first to popularize beach and waves in Plengkung 1972. They then set up a surf camp there and eventually known world-class surfers from different countries. Next, Bobby Radiasa a surfer from Bali surf camp develop and manage it until today.

A stretch of white sandy beach in this area is still covered with natural forest and away from the bustle of urban noise.
