To reach this beach visiting will be a little difficult because there is a lack of adequate signposts. Distance to the beach from Wonosari (the Gunungkidul capital region) is about 35 km. From Wonosari visitors will be through the direction to Baron Beach. From Mulo turn towards to the Siung Beach until you see Traditional market Dakbong.

Like most beaches in the area most of Gunung Kidul in general , Timang Beach consists of white sand and plants surrounding Pandan tree. This beach has not been developed so that the scenery looks still seems natural. Timang beach consists of two parts of the coast. The first part of the east side is a white sandy beach which is equal to the beaches most. The second part of the west shaped rocks are steep ( hill ) directly adjacent to the sea. In this section there are views of the island or a large stone across the beach. Island or a large rock that the surrounding community is referred to as the Panjang stone, Panjang Island and Timang Island. Panjang Island is known as the best place to hunting lobster by the local community. Timang Beach and Panjang Island connected via cable car is driven on the rope that connects the beach to the top of the island. The ropes used a diameter of 4 cm and has a length of approximately 200 meters. Communities around the regular use of the cable car to go fishing and lobster in Panjang Island.

gondola lifts around the world. A gondola lift has cabins suspended from a continuously circulating cable whereas aerial trams simply shuttle back and forth on cables. (Both are cable cars, and both are aerial lifts which also includes chairlifts.) For aerial tramways, see the List of aerial tramways. For funitels, see the Funitel article.

Pantai Timang Gondola is, essentially, a bright yellow wooden seat that traverses between the mainland and a small island nearby. The ride is only about 100m long, but I can tell you that it seems much longer, as you are suspended above the churning deep blue waters, and waves crashing far below. The only thing between you and a plunge into the depths are a few lines of blue nylon rope, a rickety wooden “crate” with a seat, and a flimsy “safety” rope. Although the ride isn’t too long, you certainly would not want one of these things to fail when you are halfway across!.

The Island has been used by locals for fishing, and in particular catching lobsters, for as long as they can remember. How they once got to the island before the bridge and gondola was built I don’t know, as the waves are constantly crashing against it, and the sides are high and formidable. These days, they have a rope bridge that they can cross over, and can even be seen at times fishing from the bridge itself.

Getting to Pantai Timang Gondola can actually be half the fun! If getting lost and constantly asking for directions is your idea of fun.
