The Maldives of Indonesia
1

 

You know what. Now we do not need to go across the Indian Ocean to see lots of island with crystal clear sea and where the color of the sea is blue, light blue, and turquoise.  Yes, there’s an island just like the Maldives, it’s the Derawan Islands. Located in East Borneo ( Kalimantan ).  If you wish you go here, go have to go Balikpapan first then take a smaller plane to Tarakan or Bereu, then you take a speed boat to the Derawan Islands.

The Derawan Islands has 31 islands, but the most famous island is the Derawan Island and Sangakali Island. This is definitely a place I should come before I die. Here you can scuba dive, snorkeling, island hopping, or just relax and enjoy the view. This is the perfect combination clear sky, blue sea, white sand.

We truly have a lot of incredible island and one of them is this. From Sabang to Merauke, Indonesia is one of the best destinations in the world. No doubt about that. We truly love Indonesia!
