The Thousand Islands (Kepulauan Seribu) is a stunning archipelago located just off the coast of Jakarta, Indonesia, consisting of over 100 small islands scattered across the northern waters of Jakarta Bay. These islands are renowned for their pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and diverse marine life, making them a popular escape for both local and international visitors seeking a tropical retreat. The archipelago offers a variety of islands that cater to different interests, from luxurious resorts on Pulau Bidadari and Pulau Macan, to more tranquil and secluded islands like Pulau Pari and Pulau Tidung, which are ideal for snorkeling, diving, and relaxing in nature.
In addition to its natural beauty, the Thousand Islands are also rich in history and culture. Some of the islands feature historical sites, such as Pulau Onrust, which once housed a Dutch colonial-era quarantine station and Pulau Kelor, home to an ancient fortress. Visitors can explore the marine conservation areas, enjoy water sports, or take a boat tour around the islands. With its close proximity to Jakarta, the Thousand Islands make for a perfect day trip or weekend getaway, offering an idyllic escape from the bustling city life.
