In Savana Bekol, Situbondo, the expanse of fields where exotic animals roam resembles various African savannas during the dry season. Savana Bekol is part of Baluran National Park. During the peak of the dry season, the grass in Savana Bekol dries up, creating an exotic view. Many wild animals, including deer, buffalo, and peacocks, cross this area. I'm interested in this place.

The Bahamas Islands are renowned for their stunning beaches, such as the Pink Sand Beach. The blend of pink sand and turquoise water creates a soothing and mesmerizing sight. You don't have to travel to the Bahamas to experience this beauty. In the Komodo Islands, East Nusa Tenggara, a beach called Pink Beach, is just as breathtaking as the Pink Sand Beach in the Bahamas. Here, you can fully enjoy beach activities while soaking in the natural beauty of the surroundings.

In Pacitan, East Java, there is the Maron River, which can be explored similarly to the Amazon River in South America. Tourists can enjoy a boat trip with a capacity of 5-6 people along the Maron River. They can also take in the scenery along the pristine river and tall trees. The river flows into Ngiroboyo Beach, which is another spot worth exploring.

Have you ever tried caving or exploring a cave? Jomblang Cave in Yogyakarta was one of Indonesia's first popular caving destinations. It is located in a remote area and features a vertical cave that requires special equipment for access, making it an attraction for adventurers. The beauty of Jomblang Cave is enhanced by its location, as sunlight penetrates to the bottom, similar to Stephens Gap in the United States.

Who doesn't know about the Maldives? This small island, with its white sandy beaches and beautiful island tourism, is located in southern Asia and has become a popular romantic honeymoon destination for newlyweds. However, before booking tickets to the Maldives, it's a good idea to consider visiting Pulo Cinta in Patoameme, Botumoito, Boalemo, and Gorontalo. Pulo Cinta has a resort in villas built on the sea, offering a clear view of Tomini Bay. An exciting activity to enjoy with your partner while on vacation here is snorkeling. Sounds exciting, right?
