Blitar city is located in the East Java province, noted as the home of Indonesia’s first president Sukarno and the active volcano named Keludat in the north area of the regency. Blitar has a tropical climate while the economy depends on the majority in Agriculture. One weekend in September when I visited Blitar City for the second time and one of the things that I missed during my visit is to explore some side of the Blitar coast.
Still can’t imagine how beautiful the Blitar beach has to offer for a beach seeker like me. With a challenging distance of the beach location; most of those are situated in a secluded part far from the progressive city, hidden behind the mountains. During my second visit to this city, I decide to go after the beaches and we ended up in Pantai Pangi and Tambakrejo which I had experienced the alluring sunset of Blitar.
If you're looking for an alternative weekend getaway in the east part of Java Island, then, try visiting the Tulungagung Regency. This Regency is located less than a 2-hours drive from the City of Blitar which is also famous with historical attractions. This Regency has numerous collections of beaches, beautiful mountains, cultural and historical sites.
