Sawarna is a lesser-known place on Java. It is off the beaten track. It had been on my wish list for some time. We visited this place early in the morning. Currently, it is very difficult to access this stretch of beach, partly because it is private land and tourists are not allowed to visit this special place without a guide and payment.
We were lucky that the owner of the accommodation knew the security people. The evening before, a call was made to ask for permission for us to take photos there around sunrise. It worked, and the next morning around 05:30, we set off for the session.
