…Beautiful beaches, world famous surfing, stylish beach clubs, massive Komodo dragons, fantastic diving, ornate temples, scenic rice paddy fields, lush rainforests, active volcanoes...
We’ve done several holidays to Indonesia to visit our good friends and because there are frequently great fare sales from Australia.  We’ll definitely be back to explore more of its volcanic islands and amazing diving sites.

Indonesia is the largest archipelago nation in the world with over 13,000 islands.  It is also the most widely spread country in Southeast Asia. Even though it has a large population and several densely populated cities, it also has vast areas of wilderness and an impressive level of biodiversity.  In addition to the amazing natural scenery and wildflie, there is a also a rich cultural diversity and many temples and palaces to visit.

Here are highlights (DINK Trip Tips) from our various trips so far...for more details or to help plan your own visit, contact us!
