The beach is characterized by its high waves, making it more suitable for contemplation and relaxation rather than activities such as swimming or surfing. Despite its natural beauty, Pantai Purnama is not heavily developed and tends to attract more locals than tourists.
Amenities at the beach are minimal, with a few small stalls, known locally as 'warungs', selling snacks and drinks. However, visitors are advised to bring their own food as options can be limited. The beach is also a popular spot for watching the sunrise, with many visitors choosing to visit in the early morning hours.
