Bridge to Biha beach Lampung, Sumatra Bridge to Biha beach - broken in 2023

Biha is a small town in the Pesisir Selatan district of Lampung province South West Sumatra, 5km south of the popular Tanjung Setia beach.

It is a busy little town with an Indomaret, pharmacy (tokoobat), medical centre (see location on map), police station, doctors, scooter mechanic, electrical appliance store, barber, tailor, a few clothes shops, small warungs and a beach.

Biha Beach

The beach stretches 3km south to the headland at Way Jambu and at low tide you can walk a further 6km south to Marang.

  Unfortunately there is nowhere safe to park your scooter which makes Biha beach a poor place to go for a walk or surf if your leaving your scooter unattended. It's almost guaranteed that thieves will steal everything from your scooter compartment ... including your t-shirt and flip-flops. The chances of getting your stuff back is zero.
