NANGA RAWA BEACH IS ANOTHER HIDDEN PARADISE IN FLORES

Nanga Rawa Beach is another hidden paradise in Flores. It is located in  Kota komba district, East Manggarai regency, NTT province. 

In the past years, the beach was not quite popular as another tourism destination. It is simply because transportation access to get there is quite difficult. 

In 2008 when I was still in highschool,  I got the chance to have overnight camp in nanga rawa beach. I had to walk from Kisol with my companions which took almost 1.5 hour to get there.
I had to pass through foothpath passing through winding turns.  It was almost like tiresome mini expedition. But I was paid with such extraordinary scenery of beach bringing me to inexplicable amazement. 

Now, the access to go there is not so difficult like past years, though the roads have been asphalt but there are still some parts that haven't been done. The local government also have alrady concerned in the tourism development program through distributing high budgets for Nanga Rawa beach. This beach arises as another pontential tourism just like another beach like Wae WOle in Kota KOmba Subdistrict, Manggarai TImur regency.

The hidden paradise nangarawa in past years was only popular to the local animal breeders like cows, buffaloes, horses which are placed along the vast meadow yard.To day, Nanga  Rawa beach started to be known as another worth visiting tourism destination in Flores. Everyone who ever come to the place is much impressed by the sea sore and especially the  vast meadow seemingly as the background of the beach.Hectares of meadow along the seasore serving quite disctinct experience. Here won't only be served by sea scape experience but also eloquent meadow.

Nanga rawa beach is perfectly the best place to experience wonderful sunset. The scape of sea and the land with vast meadow almostlikely forming peculiar type of sunset in this beach. 
In the evening also when the sun starts to set, you can see the flok of the cows, buffalloes, horses are herded by their shepherds who are the local farmer of the place.

Kisol is exactly located near Flores major road, the main road connecting from west flores, labuan bajo to the east flores, larantuka.
