Highlights & Heritage of Tanjung Tinggi Beach

Situated in Sijuk District, approximately 31 km north of Tanjung Pandan, Tanjung Tinggi spans roughly 80 hectares of Triassic-era granite rock formations dating back more than 200 million years. This beach gained international fame as the signature filming location for Andrea Hirata's best-selling cinematic masterpiece, 'Laskar Pelangi' (The Rainbow Troops). The waves are naturally cushioned by the towering granite bastions, creating a shallow, crystal-calm tidal pool ideal for swimming with families and children.

Unmissable Highlights & Experiences:

Giant granite boulder labyrinth featured in iconic cinema scenes

Serene, tranquil turquoise lagoon protected from dangerous waves

Spectacular golden-hour sunset framed by ancient monolithic silhouettes

Local seaside stalls serving fresh young coconut and authentic Gangan fish soup

Photography Tips & Recommended Angles

Climb the granite crevices on the eastern beach ridge for an expansive panoramic view of the crescent bay.

Use an ultra-wide angle lens between granite cavern crevices for dramatic cinematic perspective.

The golden hour 15 minutes prior to sunset offers breathtaking glowing reflections across calm tide pools.

“Formasi batu granit raksasa di Tanjung Tinggi jauh lebih megah dari yang terlihat di film Laskar Pelangi! Pemandu Nusataway tahu persis celah lorong batu tersembunyi yang airnya sebening kaca dan sepi pengunjung untuk foto keluarga kami.”
