Indonesia is a land of natural beauty, rich customs and
incredible cultural diversity. Whether you are looking for an
active, fast-paced excursion or a leisurely, reflective escape, the
activities in Indonesia provides ample opportunity for both.
Sea Kayaking
Komodo is one of the best sea kayaking places on
Earth. Expect incredible reefs, amazing wildlife, rugged natural
beauty and a mystique that defies expression.
Snorkeling
One of the most popular and spectacular things to
do in Indonesia. With 17,000 tropical islands, the snorkeling here
is unbeatable. Here at Asia Transpacific Journeys, many claim it's
the world's best. There are numerous live-aboard options to suit
nearly any time frame and budget.
The Komodo Archipelago's abundance of hard and soft
corals provides a Technicolor habitat for many of the great Pacific
species of invertebrates and pelagics, including sharks, lionfish,
rays and turtles. The great thing about snorkeling here is the
variety of options for the veteran and beginner alike. These waters
can sport some wild currents, making it an ideal destination for
the experienced snorkeler in search of adventure. On the other
hand, tranquil bays abound, providing safe anchorage sites and
fabulous snorkeling opportunities.
At the Lembah Straits you'll find weedy scorpionfish, Ambon
scorpionfish, yellow ornate ghost pipefish, frogfish in every size
and color, pygmy seahorse, flamboyant cuttlefish, octopus and
harlequin shrimp-just to name a few. At Bunaken Marine Park, swim
with playful spinner dolphins and magnificent pilot whales, gentle
green sea turtles, bumphead parrotfish, schools of butterflyfish
and sharks.
Cruising
A truly unique Indonesia activity for your one-of-a-kind
Southeast Asia travel experience, it is possible to charter yachts
and schooners, complete with crew, to enjoy breathtaking views of
the lush Indonesian landscape from the startlingly turquoise waters
just offshore. Some are stylish, like the Perentis.
Several smaller boats are available, suitable for economical
private charters. Call your Indonesia Travel Specialist for
details.
