Thousand Islands (Kepulauan Seribu)

Thousand Islands offers the closest escape to tropical paradise from Jakarta's hustle, with white-sand beaches and vibrant snorkeling just a 90-minute ferry ride away. This marine national park protects over 100 islands, but only 13 are developed for tourism, ensuring uncrowded experiences. With crystal-clear visibility averaging 10 meters, you'll spot colorful coral reefs and tropical fish—a concrete contrast to the city's smog.
