I found this information about an Island. It's small, not more than a hectare.

The name of the island is
Lengkuas Island. It's at the Noth of Tanjung Binga Village.

All around the island, there's full of super little islands of granites and huge rocks.




You can walk to the granites through the waters, which the depth is only 1,2m.


It's really beautiful, you can see through the waters, which means you can see the little fishies.. :D

See what i mean, it's so beautiful.

The crown of the island is actually an old Light House.

It was built on 1882 by the Dutches.

It's approximately 12 stories high or 50m.

Up there, you can see all the side of the island.


There are only 3 people who lives on this island.

And they are all the person who watches over the light house.

There are only little supplies of water there, so be sure to use it wisely when you're there.


The island is so quite and relaxing,

you can just lay down under the palm trees or coconut trees,

and enjoy the scenery.

It's also perfect for snorkeling.



It'll only take 30-45 minutes to get there from Tanjung Binga Village.

It'll cost around Rp350.000 to rent a boat.

It can stuff all 30-40 people.


The perfect time to go there is on March-November.

Because at this time of the year,

the wind is really calm.

So, you can enjoy the way there.

From December to January,

the wind is kinda hard, it can also rain all day long.



Between Lengkuas Island and a fisherman harbour

there's an Island.

Which is called, the Bird Island.

On the way to Lengkuas Isaland, you will see this one first

On that island, there's a big rock whick looks like a brid.

Maybe that's why they call it "Bird" Island.


I'm so happy and glad that this kind of island, still exist in our country.

I'm so amazed by the beauty of all that.

And I sure hope that, it'll stay there forever so everyone could see the "colourful Indonesia"

hehe :D


I found, all the information on someone elses blog.

I haven't been there yet, but maybe i'll go there someday.

So, if I have the wrong information, I'm sorry for that.

And for the pictures, i took it from google.com

Just type Lengkuas Island, and you'll see more.

I'm actually grounded for a month now,

but since I'm doing this for a task, so I'm free to browse.

hhehe..
