Hey all my friend wherever you are, on this occasion I want to show you a beautiful place in the western tip of Indonesia that you must make as a place to vacation ...
Of course Sabang island is very well known to all corners of the world with its natural beauty and the beaches with very clear sea water, I'm sure some people have only heard of the name but have never had the opportunity to visit there ..
Therefore in this post I want to show a little about the beauty of Sabang island so that the traveler is interested in exploring it directly ..
Maybe what I show is not perfect and still lacking, but I hope that hopefully with the limitations of this post, it can open up of our knowledge about the hidden natural beauty on Sabang island, so that it can attract of your interest ...
Sabang is one of the islands located on the western tip of the island of Sumatra and belongs to the administrative region of the province of Aceh, one of the provinces that has special rights in Indonesia besides the province of Yogyakarta ...

Sabang or often called Pulau Weh is an island that is in the international shipping lane and is the gateway to the Malacca Strait through the Indian Ocean because of its presence in the midst of the Indian Ocean.
Sabang Island directly faces the Indian Ocean which is a strategic route for cargo ships and cruise ships that want to go to various countries in the world ..

This island which is inhabited by around 40 thousand inhabitants, is directly adjacent to Malaysia, India and Thailand, and is one of the outer islands of Indonesia in the west besides Rondo Island ...
Many beautiful places can be found when we visit Sabang, almost every day Sabang is visited by local tourists and foreign tourists, so it is not surprising that Sabang is often regarded as one of the paradise islands in Indonesia besides the Bali (Dewata).
To go to Sabang island, the traveler can go by sea and air connected from the mainland of Aceh, if you want to use air transportation, of course you have to rent a medium-sized plane through Sultan Iskandar Muda Airport Banda Aceh to Airport Maimun Saleh in Sabang ... If you want to enjoy a trip by boat while at the same time watching dolphin attractions in the Sabang sea, I advise you to rent a ferry on the port of Ulee Lheue Banda Aceh towards the port of Balohan on Sabang..
Enjoy a trip to Sabang by ferry.

When you arrive at Sabang, you will enjoy unparalleled natural beauty in the form of high mountains with dense, untouched forests.
The first place you must visit is Sabang Paradise who is not far from the city center of Sabang, here you will watch the beauty of the ocean facing the Indian Ocean with the background of Nicobar Island which is an administrative area of India ..
In this place you can also watch the beautiful sunset and I'm sure it will be memorable for all of you.

Another place you must visit when in Sabang is the Iboih beach, one of the most beautiful beaches located in Indonesia that has super clean water and you can watch a swimming fish swimming in it.
In this place is available various needs swim for the visitors with very reasonable rental prices, in addition, the Iboih Beach also available boat rental services that will take visitors entering Rubiah Island, one of the islands located not far from Sabang Island.

Then, after you are satisfied to enjoy Iboih, then I direct you to go to kilometer 0 Indonesia, which is not far from Iboih, this is where the beginning of Indonesia is calculated on the mainland version until the endings are in Merauke, Papua ..

After enjoying the western tip of Indonesia on the kilometer 0 boundary, now you have to get ready to go home to Balohan port, and you have to take a different route from the first one.
Well, we are currently heading to another alternative road that is on the other side of the island of Sabang, and the journey is so impressive because on the roadside we can see how beautiful the natural landscape of the mountains and the vast expanse of sea ...
In the middle of the road we will meet some interesting sights, including the Cave of Sarang, Batu Perahu (rock boat), and so on.
The scenery around the road is fantastic.

Of course the tour to Sabang Island will always be the best memory for us with its natural beauty, hopefully on another occasion we can return to visit Sabang Island to enjoy the left behind moment by inviting the people we love ...
I hope that all of you can be entertained and I also hope that we will be interested in visiting this world paradise offered by Sabang island ..😊.
