ATTRACTION

The three entrance points for visitors to Ujung Kulon National Park are Taman Jaya, Peucang Island and Handeuleum Island. Two less visited regions, Panaitan Island and the Gunung Honje Range, can be reached from these entrance points or direct from Labuan. One thing that you should not miss is the debus attraction by local people (This attraction will be showed by arrangement).

TAMAN JAYA

The village of Taman Jaya, where the road down the coastline ends, is just outside the park boundary. This is the main entry point for trekking into the park and visiting Handeuleum island.

PEUCANG ISLAND

The unique and delightful island of Peucang lies in clear blue waters off the north western coastline of the Ujung Kulon Penninsula. its white sand beaches and coral reef shore hold a fascinating world of marine life while Peucang's impressive forest shelters an abundance of wildlife, some of which graze and play around the lodges.

Swimming and Diving

Peucang island's beach is superb for swimming and shallow snorkelling reefs are also found all along the shore. For deeper snorkelling there are coral reefs to the east, widway between the island and mainland. Scuba diving areas are also found to the west and at several other locations off Peucang island.
