Questions about the best places to see in Indonesia

What is the best place to visit in Indonesia?

Most travelers head straight to Bali, and for good reason. It’s got beaches, temples, surf, and a culture that’s very much its own. But the best place to visit in Indonesia depends on what you’re looking for.

If you want volcano treks and crater lakes, try Java. For wildlife, it’s hard to beat Sumatra or Borneo, where you can see orangutans in the wild. Komodo National Park offers island-hopping and some of the world’s best diving. And if you’re after peace and reef, Raja Ampat in West Papua feels like the edge of the world.
