Highlights
  • Timang Beach - You can experience crossing midair above the fierce wave of Indian Ocean. The route is from the beach toward alone small coral island. The ocean crossing is the highlight of this place. There are two ways to choose what to cross with, gondola or wooden bridge. Both have their own charm for the visitor, but for sure they’re the perfect treat for any adrenalin junkie.
    Historically, the first method for ocean crossing is using the gondola. That was done by the local fisherman as they looked for lobster at Timang Island. They did it with only simple lifeguard and simpler gondola. At some point, this unique method in looking for lobster reported through television, both international and national. From there the idea to make the Indian Ocean crossing as a tourist attraction came. At first, it was only the gondola. But later, they build a wooden bridge for another alternative. Do not imagine the modern machine-generated gondola, because the gondola here moves by human strength.

An excellent companion - Two days of tour plus travel to and from the airport. An excellent driver for our cultural stop in Indonesia. Very helpful and extremely kind. He guided us to the tourist sites and suggested, upon our request, particular places for typical experiences. Super recommended! Trip for couple + child.

Wild experience @Timang Beach - The jeep ride to the beach was really fun though it was bumpy travelling on a rocky filled road. Walking on such a bridge across the rocky island is my 1st time in my life and it was scary but it was a cool experience to cross over to see the breathtaking view. I really loved the adventerous activity. Both my kids were amazed looking at the beach as they didn't imagined it will be a wild experience for them🤣. They were excited travelling via the gondola. We really ❤
