We spend time at this beach from afternoon until dark. When we came in the afternoon, the sky was really blue and the sea was dark blue. The white sands was so cool along the beach line. We brought our grill set and baked fish and daging sei babi (smoked pork) there. There were some hut where we can sit and enjoy the beach.
The sunset was very amazing. Sky was very clear and fully with orange and dark blue color. When the dark came we left the beach and went to our resort, Oro Beach Houses, that only 5 minutes by car.
Unfortunately, there were some cans and bottles left by other visitor previously. It needs more attention from government to manage this beach.

The sand is so smooth and so white, a very peaceful place where you can be totally alone for the whole beach with 4G Telkomsel internet. In addition to the cristal clear water and various blue colors or the pool, the sky and the ocean

On this great white sandy beach you can see sunrise and sunsets. And on quiet not to windy it is great place for snorkeling and diving. It is 7 km long enough to run in the morning

My hotel is located in front of this beach. So yeah, the beach was practically "ours". The sand is so soft, the sky is amazing. Perfect blue during the day and full of stars during the night. The sunset is amazing! The beach is quiet, so you can really relax.

We arrived around 3pm, the beach itself is quiet with gorgeous white soft sand stretched far then meet crystal clear water.
We are family with 2 children (1 toddler). They enjoyed the sand and soft waves as much as we do. We left just before the sunset, considering the rather rough way we have to travel on the way back.
please bear in mind that no cleaning (nor restroom) facility in the premises. finish your restroom business before coming. bring your own food (and take back your trash afterwards, we don’t see any trashcan during our visit). we use the sand bucket we brought and fill it with sea water to cleaning up before get in to the car.

Mananga Aba is a vast expanse of powdery white sand beach with stunning blue water. When I arrived on a Monday afternoon, there was not a single soul in sight except for one or two passing fishing boats. There are no toilets or changing facilities nearby. The only shelter I got was under the huts directly in front of Mario Hotel.

White sand and velvetable! Wave was not really hard, so calm. There's no toilet and store around here. So you have to bring food and drink by your self! You will dream about this place, never forget!

A beach cleaner has been dedicated and paid to clean the beach everyday and as a result the Manangaaba beach is the talk of the tourists now
