Create an itinerary including Layang-layang Beach

Quiet and peaceful Layang-layang Beach was the site of a major World War II battle between the Allied and Japanese troops. Since seaweeds cover the seabed, the water is murky and not suitable for diving or swimming, but you can stroll on soft sand and look for seashells, play sports, or catch a banana boat ride. Nearby points of interest include Peace Park and Surrender Point, built by the Japanese to honor soldiers who sacrificed their lives during the war. The park features a beachside jogging track and food stalls selling satay (peanut sauce).

This place has a long beach but it seems like it's deserted. Passed by over weekend and there is not single human come here to relax. Maybe due to covid???

Nice place to go out with your friends and family. The view is nice. You can go do bbq here or just go eat at the restaurant nearby. You can also go buy other things at The Layangan Superstore not far from there. A mosque is also nearby.

I came in October, the sunset was nice but nothing spectacular. Maybe not the right month to view sunset here. The sea water here is murky.
