One of Lombok's most spectacular beaches, Tanjung Aan features two crescent bays separated by a small headland, with unique pepper-corn-textured white sand and impossibly clear turquoise water. The viewpoint atop Merese Hill overlooking the bay is one of the most photographed spots in all of Indonesia.
