The provincial capital of West Sulawesi, Mamuju is a coastal town with a beach line stretching for over 400 kilometers. Here you will find many beaches, many of which have rarely been visited. Two of the most popular seaside destinations in Mamuju are Lombang-Lombang beach and Manakarra beach. Manokarra beach offers beautiful panoramic views, popular with snap happy photographers while Lombang-Lombang\'s black sand beach is great to get in some snorkeling or to just splash around on the beach. A strong Melayu culture is kept alive by locals, and many ancient traditional buildings can be found just outside of the city.
