  1. 4.5 Lengkuas Island (668 reviews)
    - Another checklist ticked!!
    Spent 2-3 hours Islands
    Lengkuas Island image
    Lengkuas Island located in the waters of the Belitung Island, and is about 30 minutes away by boat from Tanjung Kelayang beach or Tanjung Binga in District Sijuk, Belitung.In Lengkuas Island there is Lighthouse, built by Dutch colonial in 1882 and still actively working for marine navigation. Visitors must wash feet with fresh water before entering the lighthouse buildings constructed of steel, because the sea water can cause rust on the building. From the lighthouse, you can see beauty of the white sandy beaches on the island with giant granite rocks and clear sea water greenish. See more..
  2. 4.5 Pahawang Island (328 reviews)
    - Great for snorkelling and beach fun
    Islands
    Pahawang Island image
    Get a boat from Ketapang Jetty. There were 4 piers with lots of boats to choose from. Choose from traditional wooden boats which are cheaper but slow paced or higher priced fast fiberglass speed boats. We haggled for a fast speed boat to take us snorkelling and island hopping for half a day at 700K Rupiah. We got it from Pak Yayat at Pier 2. Pahawang is excellent for snorkelling. Just off shore the island the residents built platforms with small food/drink booths. They moored the boats there as bases for snorkelling. You can hop from one platform to another. Fantastic ideas to preserve the corals but unfortunately the inexperienced snorkellers ravaged through some of the patches closer to te beach. Great for an overnight trip as well at some of the local folks' homestays on the island. See more..

  4. 4.0 Rubiah Island (195 reviews)
    - You have to know/find out where to snorkel.....
    Islands
    Rubiah Island image
    If you take a boat trip here they mostly drop you at the wrong side of the island...cause its cheaper for them, so dont snorkel there, theres nothing to see on the side that faces Iboih. Instead, walk the small cement path across the island to the other side-only takes a few minutes, and theres a small nice sand beach. From the beach swim straight out and start to snorkel to the right - there you have the most beautiful corals in the area. Nothing on Weh comes even close to these corals. Then if you still have energy , walk the small path behind the restaurant and you will find a small pebble stone beach on your right....start snorkelling from there...to the left....and eventually you will end up at the tip of the island and thats where you have the turtles. Lots of things to see on this side of the island. See more..

    Islands
    Wisata pulau pagang image
    One of the most beautiful islands I have visited. Organised through Lorent Homestay. We were taken out to the island via fishing boat, the journey taking about 40 minutes. On the island we got to snorkel the fantastic reefs and take in some of the most beautiful beaches I have ever set foot on (and I'm from Australia!). Lunch, snacks and water were provided for us on the day and our guides were very accommodating. Palau Pagang is a must for any traveller to West Sumatra. See more..
  7. 4.0 Kelagian Island (91 reviews)
    - Love every inch of it :)
    Islands
    Kelagian Island image
    I know, I'm a bit of beach freak, but Kelagian Island is indeed beautiful.. It takes around 30 - 40 minutes by boat from Ketapang port to reach this beautiful sandy beach. People usually take a round trip between islands of Pahawang, Pahawang Kecil and Kelagian. But Kelagian is less crowded, so it's just perfect for me and my family :). Boat can be rented from ketapang port, around 40 minutes from Bandar Lampung with the traffic, for around Rp 300.000 - 750.000,- depending on the size and time. The price for weekends and holidays can be slightly higher. Again, don't forget to take your food and drink supply, snorkeling gear, and any under-the-sun equipment you require :). The whole day just easily pass when you're enjoying your time here. See more..
  8. 4.5 Pulau Pasir (63 reviews)
    - Little Island like Maldives of Indonesia
    Islands
    Pulau Pasir image
    Pulau Pasir is about 45 minutes away by boat from Tanjung Kelayang beach, off Belitung Island. This island is special because during low tide in the morning, it will appear as a sandy island with nothing else on it. Come in the afternoon, when tide rises, it submerges. It is a firm favorite amongst island-hoppers. See more..

  12. 4.5 Tailana Island (40 reviews)
    - Best island in Indonesia
    Islands
    Tailana Island image
    I'd been recommended to stay at the Banyak's my a few travelers , so I organized a few of my friends to come on a trip. We met in Medan, and took an overnight car to Singkil (Aceh). From there we took the public ferry and then another boat to Tailana. It was absolute paradise - a small sandy island in the middle of crystal blue water. The staff are super friendly and the bungalows are basic but all you need. Activities abounded with a scuba shop on the island, as well as volley ball, snorkeling and fishing on offer. The house reef is amazing so we snorkeled for hours. Had the most fantastic stay and couldn't recommend this island more highly. See more..

  16. 4.5 Mandeh Island (29 reviews)
    - Hidden gem of Sumatra
    Spent More than 3 hours Islands
    Mandeh Island image
    We weren't planning to visit here in the first place, however after hearing recommendation from the locals, we decided to go take the chance and go there. It's a 3 hour drive from Padang, and once you get there, you need to rent a boat to explace the area. I suggest that you take the cheapest one which cost IDR 650,000 or roughly USD 50 to explorer 4-5 places. The water and beaches are clean, and the scenery was beautiful. Definately a go to place when you're in West Sumatra See more..

  19. 4.5 Berhala Island (14 reviews)
    - Menyaksikan penyu bertelur dari jarak dekat
    Thursday: Spent More than 3 hours Islands
    Berhala Island image
    Selama bulan April sampai Agustus adalah saat terbaik berkunjung ke tempat ini. Penyu akan berkunjung untuk bertelur di Pulau Berhala dan kondisi alam pun cukup bersahabat dengan iklim tropisnya, ketika anda akan berlayar dari Pelabuhan Nipah Panjang menuju ke Pulau Berhala.

    Saran dari saya selaku biro perjalanan wisata yang mengakomodir transportasi darat maupun laut. Sangat disarankan bepergian bersama rombongan minimal 10 orang untuk menghemat biaya sewa kapal menuju Pulau Berhala.
    Bagi yang ingin melakukan perjalanan secara pribadi, silahkan anda menghubungi Agen Perjalanan wisata untuk budget yang relatif terjangkau.

    - Beautiful small island with gorgeous beaches!
    Islands
    Tikus Island image
    I went to Tikus Island, also called Mouse Island for one day during my trip to Bengkulu in August 2018. The trip takes between 45 minutes to a couple of hours depending on the boat that you take to get there. I went on a small fishing boat, surely not my first choice, but I was hindered by not knowing the language and not knowing where to go to rent a boat, so it was left to my local friends who are far more daring than I in options. In any case, it is a small island with plenty of sun shade from trees and palms. There are a few local vendors selling some food and I believe bottled water however, we brought all our food and water for the day. There are two distinct sides to the island, the snorkeling side and the swimming side. Either side is great and you will surely enjoy a really nice day here. It is a sharp contrast with the beaches in Bengkulu which are not swimming beaches. It was a great experience, my only issue was the small boat certainly way out of my comfort zone but it was fine.
