Karimunjawa National Park

One of my favorite tourist-free island in Indonesia is Karimunjawa, a small island north of Semarang off the coast of central Java. The main island has only one main village, many stunning hills and peaks, and a lot of untouched fringing reefs along the white sand beaches. The island is so remote that they only have 18 hours of electricity per day. If you are looking for a quiet beach time somewhere near Java island and you would like to avoid the typical candidate such as Bali or Lombok, then you will love Karimunjawa. Getting to the island is a bit tricky, hence not many tourists managed to come here. There is only one slow boat per every 2 days which goes at 7 AM so if you are planning to do this independantly, please plan accordingly and arrive one hour earlier to get the ticket. If you are going with the agency, you will be alright as they will drop you off before 6 AM anyway. Getting to Karimunjawa is very dependant on the tide level. Your trip will only be possible if the tide level is low enough so please consult the weather first for both in and out days with the agency before you book anything. #nationalpark#urbanexplorer

Batu Topeng Beach becomes one of the most beautiful white sandy beaches in Jepara Regency. It offers both land and sea beauty. For the information, people are able to access the location either by land or water transportation! Isn’t that great? After all, it only takes several minutes to reach the beach from Karimunjawa Square. These are only some allures that make the beach famous. So, what are others? When it comes to tourist activities, people come to Batu Topeng Beach in order to enjoy sightseeing. They simply explore the site and witness the beautiful scenery. The best time to visit the beach is in the afternoon, though, during the sunset. Still, it is also recommended to visit it at noon. Why is that? There is a special sea tour after lunch, so everyone should not miss it. Moreover, during lunch, they can enjoy numerous delicious seafood BBQ especially the spicy squid! #summervacation#beachvacation#urbanexplorer

Paradise Batu Topeng Beach

The location is quite strategic, as it resides near to Karimun Square. As for the popularity, the beach is known for its soothing sunset and an amazing shoreline. No wonder, people come to the site for beach walking and sightseeing. They take advantage of the nuance for relaxation, too. Once arriving at the site, tourists may see a soft-textured white sandy shoreline right away. The size of the shoreline is vast enough for beach walking! Plus, it is located near Tanjung Gelam Beach so tourists can reach that area easily. When it comes to the sea, it indeed looks calm and alluring. No wonder, tourists are likely to get in the water and conduct swimming. The next best feature in Batu Topeng Beach is definitely the sunset. Some coral reefs reside by the shore and a small hut resides on it! The locals usually look for fishes and clams in that spot. #beachvacation #urbanexplorer #scenicspotphotoguide
