Busy, dirty and pretty average, more like a port than a beach. Lots of seafood restaurants though on the other side of the road from this open at night with lovely fresh seafood.

Losari beach was the top tourist spot in Makassar and popular among locals too. It's always crowded after sunset. Sandless. Rather dirty concrete walkway. Not my kind of beach. Come here only if you'd like to have dinner in 1 of the restaurants. Otherwise spend your time somewhere else.

I like the view of the sunset and the beautiful floating mosque in the bay. There is nothing that we do not like. Everything is beautiful.

Losari Beach is like a trade mark place in Makassar. Please note that we could not swim or playing with sand at this beach. You could only walk around the concrete area next to the beach which is not very clean. In the afternoon, many foodstalls selling local snacks, pisang epe. Acroos the beach, lots of local restaurants, mostly seafood.

A very beautiful view during sunset time, but the traffic is quite massive/crowded at that time as many people will come to the place during that time

A lot of people especially local in this area... Famous hang-out place in Makassar, from 6:00pm onwards... At night many small stalls selling drinks, junk food, souvenir etc. This place not very clean, it look clean because it is very new. There should care for this place. Nice place to be when sunset. Should try the 'Pisang Penyet' selling along... More

This is very different to the beaches I am accustomed to. Most kids tend to gather there at night and the foreshore looks rather rundown and dirty even though it is being beautified.

We stayed there just for one night, one the way back to Jakarta after spending a beautiful 4 days trip to Tana Toraja. The Losari Beach hotel is a nice little hotel facing Losari beach. Very friendly and helpful staff. Too bad we couldn't afford to stay longer due to our commitment.

The beach was one of the tourist spot in Ujungpandang, and the government put so much effort to make it a memorable place for tourist.
