West Papua is the most western province of Indonesia, occupying half of the entire Papua island itself (the other half is made up of Papua New Guinea). Originally a tribal island, there are still very remote and unique local communities with fascinating ways of life including highland hunting villages and agricultural ethnic groups. There are also sublime landscapes to be explored, with thick jungle, soaring peaks and coastal paths that offer something for all abilities. Flora and fauna of a dizzying array and some fantastic beaches, surfing and snorkelling complete the full circle of natural wonders on this island. There is also a fascinating history here with a fusion of the traditional ethnic tribes and their influence from European colonial missionaries and various military administrators.

Travel Tip #89
The best place to swim in the sea in Bali is Jimbaran: you can swim in the sea at high or low tide during any season. There’s no coral and the water is shallow, sometimes there are small waves too, ideal for learning to surf. After a day in the sea, dine at one of the excellent barbeque seafood restaurants along the beach.

Customer Feedback
10 out of 10 for the service we received from our Bali representative. His organisation and planning of our trip was excellent. The first week involved quite a few activities and due to his planning everything went like clockwork. We never had to think about anything which made the holiday stress free!
