A Hidden Gem in Lake Toba
1. A Unique Freshwater Beach
Unlike most beaches, Pakkodian Beach offers a unique experience with its freshwater. Located on the shores of Lake Toba, the world’s largest volcanic lake, the beach’s water is not salty. The calm lake scenery and the natural landscape make Pakkodian Beach an attractive tourist destination.
2. An Enchanting Crescent-Shaped Shoreline
Pakkodian Beach boasts a beautifully curved shoreline, resembling a crescent moon when viewed from above. This view is further enhanced by the lush green trees surrounding the beach. For those who want to enjoy the panoramic view from above, Bukit Singgolom offers breathtaking scenery.
3. Secluded and Off the Beaten Path
Despite its stunning beauty, Pakkodian Beach remains relatively untouched by tourists. Its remote location, approximately 244 kilometers from Medan City, and the less-than-optimal road access are contributing factors. However, for explorers seeking tranquility and a natural atmosphere, Pakkodian Beach is the perfect place.
4. A Budget-Friendly Tourist Destination
Visiting Pakkodian Beach doesn’t require breaking the bank. Currently, there is no entrance fee to visit the beach. Tourists only need to pay a parking fee of Rp5,000 for motorcycles and Rp10,000 for cars.
5. An Ideal Camping Spot
The calm and natural atmosphere of Pakkodian Beach, surrounded by green trees and fresh air, makes it an ideal place for camping. For tourists who want to spend the night on the beach, a fee of Rp20,000 is charged. The camping experience at Pakkodian Beach will be even more memorable with the beautiful sunset views over Lake Toba.
Tips for Visiting:
- Plan your trip carefully due to the considerable distance.
- Bring enough supplies as there are not many shops around the beach.
- Keep the beach clean and dispose of trash properly.
Pakkodian Beach offers unique natural beauty and a peaceful atmosphere. For explorers looking for an alternative tourist destination in Lake Toba, Pakkodian Beach is the perfect choice.
