Tanah Belitong

Belitong is one of those places which can be considered as a hidden paradise. Yes, the term 'hidden paradise' is cliche but it suits this secluded island off the coast of Sumatra perfectly. It's not overcrowded, not superficial, and not extravagant; it does not try to be one of those famous beaches where every corner is filled with expensive, 'hip' cafes and modern hotels. It's honest, it doesn't try to be something it's not. It's that place where you can feel that the beauty you see is purely the work of mother nature herself.

Belitong can be reached by plane from Jakarta, approximately 50 minutes of air travel.
