The quake had a very shallow depth of 15 km (9 mi) and was felt by many near the epicenter. The shallow depth of the quake caused it to be felt more strongly near the epicenter than a deeper quake of similar magnitude would.Quake Data | Interactive map | Seismograms | User reports | Aftershocks | Earlier quakes here | Quakes in Indonesia | Provinsi Jawa Tengah | West Java | Daerah Istimewa YogyakartaHint: Click on the image to see different maps of this quake!Strong magnitude 5.3 earthquake at 15 km depth4 Sep 05:07 UTC: First to report: VolcanoDiscovery after 3 minutes.4 Sep 05:09: Now using data updates from BMKG4 Sep 05:11: Epicenter location corrected by 5.6 km (3.5 mi) towards WSW.4 Sep 05:13: Magnitude recalculated from 5.4 to 5.3.

Epicenter location corrected by 8.1 km (5 mi) towards NNE.Update Fri, 4 Sep 2026, 05:12Significant magnitude 5.4 earthquake 78 km south of Cilacap, IndonesiaJust 7 minutes ago, a 5.4-magnitude earthquake struck near Cilacap, Cilacap Regency, Provinsi Jawa Tengah, Indonesia. The tremor was recorded around noon on Friday, September 4th, 2026, at 12:04 pm local time, at a shallow depth of 10. km below the surface.The event was filed by Indonesia's Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency, the first seismological agency to report it.Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.Weak shaking might have been felt in Cilacap (pop. 257,000) located 78 km from the epicenter, Kroya (pop. 23,300) 94 km away, Gombong (pop. 50,200) 109 km away, Sokaraja (pop. 66,500) 114 km away, and Purwokerto (pop. 230,200) 116 km away.VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available.

So far, we have received 8 reports for this quake from  Indonesia. Out of these, 6 people indicated they felt it. The quake was reported to have been felt in up to approx. 150–180 km (93–112 mi) distance.Most reports came from Depok (1 report), a city with more than 100,000 inhabitants in Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta in 172 km (107 mi) distance northeast of the epicenter, Indonesia, Yogyakarta (1 report), a city with more than 370,000 inhabitants in 164 km (102 mi) distance east of the epicenter, and Melati (1 report) (167 km or 104 mi to the northeast).

It is commonly measured on the so-called Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) ranging from 1 (not felt) to 10 (extreme shaking), and given in Roman numerals as I,II,...IX, X, and often displayed with color codes ranging from light blue to dark red.Earthquake intensity depends mainly on the magnitude and depth of the quake as well as the distance from the epicenter: The further away, the less shaking intensity occurs.Read more about the MMI scale!Number of reports by intensityShaking intensityNumber of reportsMin-Max distance from epicenter (*)Average distance (*)I: Not felt2223–336 km (139–209 mi)279 km (174 mi)III: Weak shaking3107–179 km (66–111 mi)150 km (93 mi)IV: Light shaking297–163 km (60–101 mi)130 km (81 mi)Notes(*) Reports are filtered to exclude those that are likely highly inaccurate or esaggerated.Only reports with latitude/longitude coordinate positions given (8 in total) could be used for geographic statistics.Get the Android appI didn't feel itI felt this quakeIf you were near the epicenter and felt it, please share your experience and submit a short "I felt it" report!

When aftershocks are detected, we will update this section.What are aftershocks?Larger earthquakes (above magnitude 5 or so) such as this one are usually followed by smaller ones known as aftershocks that occur in the same area during the days, weeks, months or even years after the main shock.[More info]What about this quake?Based on its magnitude, the fault that was active during the quake likely ruptured beneath a surface area of approximately 20 km2 (8 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 8 km (5 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Sep 4, 2026 05:05 am (Universal Time)9 minutes ago - felt5.315 km0 km - This quakeIndian Ocean, 71 km S of Cilacap, IndonesiaMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksEarthquake statisticsAverage number of earthquakesBased on data from the past 56 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 99 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 7 or higher: 0.02 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 62.5 years)Mag. 6 or higher: 0.03 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 31.3 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 0.89 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 1.1 years)Mag. 4 or higher: 11.2 quakes per yearMag. 3 or higher: 48 quakes per year (or 4 quakes per month)Mag. 2 or higher: 99 quakes per year (or 8.3 quakes per month)The area where this quake occurred has a high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 2 quakes above magnitude 7 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 60 to 65 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
