Pantai Florida 2 is a coastal destination situated along the Anyer-Sirih highway in Banten, characterized by its long stretches of sandy shoreline. The beach is recognized for its gradual slope and relatively calm waters, making it a common site for family-oriented seaside recreation. Unlike the more commercialized northern sections of Anyer, this location focuses on providing beach access with basic amenities such as food stalls, gazebos, and sanitation facilities. It features unobstructed views of the Sunda Strait, including potential sightings of the Anak Krakatau volcano during clear weather. The ground surface consists primarily of fine sand with occasional rocky outcrops at the waterline. Visitors frequently utilize the space for coastal camping and social gatherings during weekend periods.
