The west entrance is the easiest way to access the beach as it features a newly constructed road from the cliff top to the shoreline.
Two entry points exist. The west entrance has a steep road accessible by scooter; cars must park at the top. The east entrance (Nunggalan Beach) requires a 15 to 20-minute trek down steep, rocky cliffside stairs.
