Jembatan Kretek II spans the Opak River for a distance of no less than 556 meters, forming a seamless connection between the southern highways in Bantul Regency.
But it’s much more than just a shortcut. Because it sits right next to the active Opak earthquake fault line, engineers equipped the bridge with advanced seismic shock absorbers to withstand major tremors. Visually, the structure honors local heritage with striking Javanese cultural designs, including a giant monument shaped like a traditional plow.
Whether you’re driving across at sunset, exploring the nearby mangrove forests, or heading to the seafood markets at Pantai Depok, this modern architectural marvel is a highlight of any coastal road trip.
