Lamaru Beach

Lamaru Beach, on the eastern edge of Balikpapan, is a laid-back coastal spot known for its long stretch of sand, calm waters, and rows of shady pine trees. Popular with local families, it offers simple seaside activities such as swimming, picnicking, and renting small huts or mats for the day. Its relaxed atmosphere makes it a practical choice for visitors seeking an easy beach outing rather than a remote getaway. Lamaru is especially appealing if you want a casual, accessible place to enjoy Balikpapan’s shoreline.
