The Thousand Islands or ‘Kepulauan Seribu’ in Bahasa Indonesia, are a chain of islands located 45 km (28 miles) in the north of Jakarta’s coast. Despite its name, in fact, it consists of about 110 islands. No, we don’t have time to explore all of the islands only in weekend. We need to choose the best things to do in The Thousand Islands. So, which islands worth to go over the weekend?
1. Pramuka Island
Pramuka Island is the main island in the Thousand Islands. This is where we start before doing island hopping. We’re going to stay in this island since Pramuka Island has the best facilities in Thousand Island. Moreover, there is a turtle conservation in the island as well.
2. Semak Daun Island
Semak Daun Island is a supertiny island. This island is only inhabited by a family and some campsite. The shallow crystal water and white sands beach surrounding the island are very worth to see. You can swim or sunbath along the tranquil white sands beach. With a shallow sea water level surrounding the island, you can even walk from Semak Daun Island to the nearest island. The beach in Semak Daun is one of the best in Thousand Island.
3. Air Island
There is a beautiful island called Air Island. Air means water in Bahasa Indonesia. Here we can see a beautiful sand bar next to the island.
4. Snorkeling
There are several spots for snorkeling in The Thousand Islands. One of those is Soft Coral Spot.
