Green Bay

Green Bay, a hidden behind steep cliffs and dense forests on the eastern tip of Java, Teluk Ijo is a small bay in Banyuwangi that offers extraordinary natural beauty. Nicknamed so because its seawater radiates a captivating emerald green, this bay is a paradise for explorers seeking tranquility and pristine scenery.
The visitors must undertake a fairly challenging journey. Typically, the journey begins at Rajegwesi Beach, followed by a 15-20 minute ride on a small motorboat, or for the more adventurous, a trek through the forest for about an hour. This sense of adventure is an integral part of Teluk Ijo's charm.
The main attraction of Teluk Ijo is its unique water color. This phenomenon is caused by the reflection of sunlight on algae growing on the bay's floor, creating a stunning gradation of green. At Teluk Ijo, you can swim in the calm, clear waters, feel the freshness of the clean water, and enjoy the views of the green cliffs surrounding the bay. Not far from the bay, there's a small waterfall that falls directly into the sea. The freshwater from this waterfall provides a unique and refreshing sensation, making it a favorite spot for visitors to rinse off after swimming in the sea.
Teluk Ijo is the perfect destination for those looking to escape the crowds and reconnect with nature. Its pristine natural beauty, coupled with its tranquil atmosphere, makes Teluk Ijo a hidden gem worth visiting when in Banyuwangi.
