Whenever you have your summer time, here are some suitable place to pass the time. Dont forget to prepare your camera and take interesting pictures during your journey as a live travel documentation of all time as Indonesia has a nature that should not be missed to be enjoyed.
Misool, Raja Ampat, West Papua
Tourists coming to Raja Ampat in West Papua always take pictures at Wayag, with its unique coral islands in the background. But not many realize that there is another paradise in the region that is even more beautiful, around a five-hour trip by speedboat from Sorong.
Misool, in the southern part of Raja Ampat, offers such a spectacular view that you might think that it is unreal, especially during summer.
At Yapap, there are structures of coral islands that look so random that you cannot even begin to imagine what created them. Some of the islands are like neatly cut stones, some are similar to temple structures, one has a shape like a dog's head and there is also one that looks like huge menhir stone floating in the air.
There is also a lake on Misool that is home to stingless jellyfish. Misool's lake is clear and deep, so the jellyfish look more translucent. During summer, when the sun shines, these jellyfish will come up to the surface and make you feel like you are in some kind of alien world, surrounded by jellyfish. You can also expect smaller crowds as not many tourists know about this secluded gem in Raja Ampat.
Karimunjawa
Karimunjawa in Jepara regency, Central Java, is definitely one of Indonesia's must-visit destinations during summer. It is consdered as a perfect getaway. You must take a ferry for six hours to reach it, its poor mobile signal will ensure you have an undisturbed holiday and it offers both spectacular underwater views and smooth white sandy beaches with gorgeous clear blue sky.
Karimunjawa is also home to plenty of interesting activities such as snorkeling, diving, canoeing and even swimming with sharks.
Wakatobi, Southeast Sulawesi
Wakatobi, located in Southeast Sulawesi, is actually an acronym for the islands of Wangi-Wangi, Kaledupa, Tomia and Binongko. Also known as Tukang Besi Islands, Wakatobi covers an area of 1.39 million hectares (97 percent of which is sea) and has a population of around 100,000 people. Diving here is excellent - with visibility of 30 meters - seeing 750 of 850 species of coral known to man.
Aside from its 39 islands, there are also a number of sandy atolls in Wakatobi. In fact, Karang Kaledupa is the longest atoll in the world, at 48 kilometers.
Sunbathing on deserted white stretches of sand, swimming in crystal clear waters and admiring clear blue skies in the afternoon and countless stars at night are just some of the things that you can expect from Wakatobi.
Then Bajau village — the original home of sea gypsies - The houses had wooden frames with woven bamboo walls and were built on bases made from piled-up chunks of coral.
Natuna Islands
Natuna is one of Indonesia's northernmost islands and is blessed with rich oil and natural gas resources. The place nestled between Peninsular Malaysia and East Malaysia in the South China Sea.
Interesting spots to visit in Natuna Islands include Pulau Tiga, which produce cloves and has gorgeous colorful houses on stilts in the sea; Pulau Setai that has serene and smooth white sandy beaches where you can play, swim, snorkel and dive; and Tanjung Senubing, with its awe-inspiring giant rock formations.
Pangandaran, West Java
For beach person, Pangandaran has many attractive spots, such as Pantai Timur Pangandaran where visitors can enjoy water sports like banana boat rides and jet skiing; Pantai Barat Pangandaran, which is great for swimming and bodyboarding; and Pantai Pasir Putih where they can snorkel, visit protected forest and historical sites such as Goa Jepang.
Other than visiting beautiful beaches, visitors can also amble along the river at Cukang Taneuh, also known as Green Canyon, on a boat while admiring the surrounding high cliffs. It is quite an adventurous trip because, when the boat reaches a narrowed section, you have to continue your journey by swimming to the inner part of Green Canyon.
