Are you looking for another destination for holiday in Indonesia and not touristy place? and you really enjoy islands with crystal clear sea water?
DERAWAN ISLAND should be your destination. When you are there, you will be amazed by clear sea water and in the morning while you enjoy your breakfast, you are able to see green sea turtles swim coming to bridge. This is something you can't find in other islands. Some activities you can do are snorkeling and diving which many people come to this island for these. At night, you can walk around island to find your dinner or enjoy roasted corn sold by local people. You don't need vehicle to explore the island so you can imagine how fresh the air and this is the right place for relaxing and admire the grace of God.
Some tour packages with affordable price will offer you to visit other islands such as Maratua, Kakaban and Sangakali and I
personally recommend you to visit those islands coz they are amazing as well. each island has unique view and different color of seawater. During in Kakaban island, you can swim with jellyfishes.
