OVERVIEW
Lombok's quieter Pink Sand
There are three beaches along this stretch of Lombok's southeastern coast that carry the pink beach name, all in the village of Sekaroh, Jerowaru. Pink Beach 1, also known as Tangsi Beach, is the largest and most visited, the one most people mean when they say "Pink Beach Lombok." Pink Beach 2, locally known as Pantai Segui, is smaller and quieter, with sand that's noticeably softer and finer than its more famous neighbour.
The colour comes from the same source as Tangsi's, tiny fragments of red coral mixed into white sand, most visible in good sunlight and near low tide. It shifts through the day, sometimes a clear rosy pink, sometimes closer to a pale, ordinary white, depending on light and conditions.

SAND & WATER
Conditions on the ground
The water is calm and clear, well suited to swimming, and the coral just offshore holds decent snorkeling on its own. Most visitors combine a stop here with a boat trip further out to Gili Petelu, roughly 15 minutes away, which has the better developed reef and more reliable visibility of the two.
GETTING THERE
Access & parking
Pink Beach 2 can be reached directly by car or scooter, it isn't limited to a boat-only approach the way some older guides suggest. The drive from Kuta or Senggigi takes roughly 2 to 2.5 hours, following the same route out toward Tanjung Aan and Bukit Merese before continuing on toward Sekaroh village and the Ekas Peninsula. Expect a mix of paved and rougher, unpaved sections along the way. A boat from Tanjung Luar Harbour, roughly 30 to 45 minutes, remains a good alternative, especially if combining the trip with Gili Petelu or the Pulau Pasir sandbar.
WHAT'S THERE
Facilities
Facilities are minimal to non-existent directly at Pink Beach 2, there's no commercial infrastructure here the way there is at the larger Pink Beach 1, which has bamboo warungs and gazebos. It's worth bringing your own water, snacks, and sun protection, and most day tours include lunch as part of the package rather than relying on anything available on-site.

GOOD TO KNOW
No lifeguard on duty, and this is a genuinely remote beach with no facilities nearby. Bring your own water and supplies, fill up on fuel before setting out, and expect a mix of paved and rougher road sections on the drive in.
TIMING
When to visit
The dry season, April through October, gives the clearest water and the best chance of a genuinely visible pink tint. Morning and late afternoon light both bring out the colour better than the harsher midday sun, and low tide reveals more of the pink-flecked sand along the shoreline.
COMPARISON
Pink Beach 2 vs Pink Beach 1 (Tangsi)
WHY CHOOSE THIS ONE
Pink Beach 1 is larger, has basic warungs and gazebos, and sits a little closer along the same route. Pink Beach 2 trades some of that convenience for softer sand, a smaller and quieter bay, and a real sense of having it to yourself, at the cost of a longer drive and no facilities on-site. Worth it if seclusion and sand quality matter more than convenience.
