Sundak

http://www.yogyes.com/en/yogyakarta-tourism-object/beach/sundak/Sundak.jpgSundak range not only charming natural view, but also keeps the story. Sundak name becomes an experience of evolution can be traced as geological evidence.

To check progress, visitors must first know the right side of Sundak sea beach in the past and the present time. On the west side of the beach is a mosque and the empty space to use this car park. The east is a cave made of up to a reef about 12 meters. Entering the cave is a spring, which local people have access to clean water.

Before 1930, the area above the sea water is still in the story that the sea water reached the area where the mosque is today and the cave was submerged in sea water. According to geological processes in the southern seas, the sea water level has dropped and the water of the sea was the sea and the coral reef area around the mosque has become the new earth people then used for coastal economic activities to date.

It was only a natural activity that eventually formed the starting point for naming the range. When the rains came, there was a large amount of groundwater flowing into the sea As a result, land on the east side to divide the beach to form a river view. Water flows like sand division. When it was dry season, the gap disappeared from the sea came ashore and pull the sand. Name (split sand) Wedibelah come from this natural phenomenon. When we visited the place, the crack did not exist.

Decades later the name was changed. In 1976, there was an interesting event. On one afternoon, there was a dog running on the shore and entered the cave, where she met with a sea urchin. Being a starving dog trying to attack sea urchins, sea urchins, but are avoided. Then the fight happened, and finally the dog managed to eat half of the body of the sea urchin and the dog came out of the cave of pride. The owner of the dog, Arjasangku, so half of the body of the sea urchin was still in the dog's mouth. Since the name was changed to Wedibedah Sundak as an abbreviation of the USS (Javanese language the dog) and Landaker (Javanese language urchins).

The fight was to bring good luck to the local population. Having been a shortage of water for years, locals have finally found a spring. Initially, the dog owner was surprised that his dog was wet after exiting the cave. The assumption was that there was a spring inside the cave and the dog may fall while hunting in the sea urchin. After some research, the prediction proved true. Now, the spring functions as a source of drinking water for local residents. The pipes were installed in the cave to distribute water to the community. The conclusion of the spring comfort in the community who were disappointed because the wells that were flooded by sea water

Imagine the state of the area hundreds of years ago, when we know its status in 1930. There may be many organizations that have used the lower part of the reef, which now serves as a hideout. For this reason, many archaeologists believe that as a result of the violent geological processes, there were many marine organisms have been left stacked like fossils. Not many studies show that the fossils are found in the region.

In addition to historical controls in silence Sundak also offers a pleasant atmosphere at night. You can enjoy the breeze of the night, while ordering the grilled fresh fish with friends. Just pay a few thousand rupees for firewood. If you refuse to do so, only to ready to eat grilled fish. At night you can sleep anywhere, you can put your tent or just lying on the bank of the food vendors that are not used at night. The darkness can sometimes be better than the brightness. Do not worry.

If you wish to interact with the local population may be valuable information. You can understand how people live their lives, their culture and they can change your perspective of life. To see Grandpa Tugiman normally maintains the parking or Arjasangku father may be another option. They are examples of leaders Sundak Beach. To have a conversation with them, not only do you just see the witness history, but it allows you to direct the history witnesses how the story was carved.
