Batam is often known as one of the entrances to Singapore. The city in the Riau Islands province deserves to be known as more than just an entry and exit point for Indonesia. There are few tourist destinations in Batam that are no less interesting than tourism in Bali or Lombok. Batam is a renowned exotic tropical tourist destination, such as its attractive beaches, unique islands to hidden waterfalls. This is the reason why Batam deserves to be your tourist destination in the next holiday session.
- Ranoh Island
Having dozens of islands scattered, Ranoh Island is a tourist destination in Batam that you must visit. The special tropical feel is the main reason to enjoy the atmosphere on Ranoh Island.

Tanjung Pinggir Beach is also a tourist destination in Batam that is fun to visit.

- Mubut Island
One of the uninhabited islands in Batam is Mubut Island, or rather Mubut Darat Island. You can find the beautiful feel of a natural tropical island when visiting this island. You can even feel as if you own the island.
There are many things you can do here, but do not litter, okay? Because you can destroy the beauty and naturalness of the island itself, littering everywhere makes you a bad traveler. Relaxing, enjoying the sunset, and playing in the water and white sand are the best ways to enjoy nature on Mubut Island.
- Batam Forest Top
Climbing trees, hanging, crawling and moving from one tree to another is an exciting and challenging activity. In Forest Top, you can do all that like Tarzan. There are at least 15 games for those of you who like to hang, among them such as Tarzan Swing, Postman, Tandem Rope to Flying Fox. In fact, there are exciting adventure routes that you can explore. Some games can even test the cohesiveness of you and your friends.
- Abang Island
This small island with a population of 1,500 people is very interesting to visit. Not only does it offer special natural beauty, the underwater panorama and its beautiful coral clusters are also impossible to ignore. Even if you are lucky enough, you can meet clown fish, or more familiarly called Nemo fish. The sights that are mandatory to see while snorkeling around Abang Island will not disappoint.
- Tunjuk Island
Tunjuk Island is still an underrated island that many have not visited, but the beauty it offers is comparable to other islands in Batam which are more popular. This place is suitable for those of you who want a “me-time”. White sand and calm waves are the main attraction. The best time to visit the island, which is southeast of Batam, is in the morning, while enjoying the sunrise from the east. In addition to the really cool feel, you can also enjoy the natural panorama of Batam in the morning which is no less beautiful.
