History
The history of Pandawa Beach begins with the Pandavas consisting of Yudhistira, Bima, Arjuna, and the twins Nakula and Sadewa who were trapped in the Gala-Gala Cave. The Pandavas were able to save themselves by making a tunnel.
After successfully saving themselves, the Pandavas transformed the haunted wilderness into the Kingdom of Amertha. To remember this story, on December 27 2012, Melasti Beach was officially renamed Pandawa Beach.
