A Tropical Getaway
I went to Trenggalek for my family in God's wedding.. It is located in Jawa Timur Indonesia. Near Kabupaten Tulungagung. (Go to the link in Wikipedia of Trenggalek to know more.)
A great getaway from the hectic city of Surabaya, a small town with rice fields and sugar canes fields, also white sandy beaches.
You can get there by bus from Surabaya, paying about Rp. 25.000,- to Rp.50.000,-not in peak season that will stop in Tulungagung, then continue to get the smaller bus to Trenggalek for about Rp.15.000,-.
Trenggalek has cool weather because of the location surrounded by rock mountains and blue skies that you will not find in Surabaya. In the city you can just go around by foot because the town is small. The center of the town if you come in a day of the city's anniversary then it will be packed with cultural meetings and yummy traditional local food.
Accomodation could be found in the center of the city, hotels ranging from just Rp.60.000 per night breakfast included.
To get to the beach of Prigi or Pasir Putih again you need to rent a car to get you there. It is approximately 20 km away that gives you a scenery of a hidden beach surrounded by green mountains. You could buy some of the local fruits on the way there such as coconuts, rambutans, mango, depending on the season, don't forget to bargain as well.
