is located 27 km south of Yogyakarta and easily accessible by public transportation that operate up to 17: 00 pm as well as private vehicles. The afternoon before sunset is the best time to visit this most popular beach in Yogyakarta.

From there, we can see the whole area of Parangtritis Beach, southern sea, up to the horizon.
Psst, YogYES will tell a secret. Not many people know that on the east side of this clifft, hidden temple ruins. Unlike the other temples located in a mountainous area, Gembirawati Temple is only a few hundred meters from the edge of Parangtritis Beach. To reach this temple, we can pass the road uphill near the Hotel Queen of the South and then go down the path to the west for approximately 100 meters. Faintly roar of the ferocious waves of the southern sea could be heard from this
temple.Parangtritis Beach is very closely related to the legend of Queen of the South (Queen of South). Many Javanese people believe that Parangtritis Beach is the gate of Ratu Kidul's magical kingdom who controls the southern sea. Queen of the South Hotel is a luxurious resort that is named according to this legend. Unfortunately the resort is now rarely, whereas it used to have a view that could make us breathless.
