A short walk on a concrete path over a gentle hill from Tekek Village, Air Batang has a 2km long stretch of sun-drenched and palm fringed beach that attracts most of the backpacking tourists. The reason therefore might be less the beach, which is here mostly rocky, than rather the nice atmosphere, the contact to the native families and the peacefulness that you can find here. More tourist infrastructure and kampung (village) life can be found here.

The best beach stretches from the jetty to the south. The beach is moderately rocky during low tide. If you're the adventurous type, head into the virgin jungle for a spot of trekking and you're bound to be rewarded with spectacular waterfalls, the antics of mischievous monkeys and sightings of large but shy monitor lizards lazing on sun drenched rocks.
