At the end of a small river is Wanokaka Beach, a large beach partly sheltered by the sand banks created in the river mouth. A good place for fishing vessels, many laid up at the beach and along the river, others actively working offshore. And a good place for fishing, evidenced by the many fishermen cleaning theire catch here, and preparing for transport by motorbike to the town of Waikabubak.
