East Nusa Tenggara

East Nusa Tenggara is the southernmost province of Indonesia, with Kupang being its capital city. Located west from the Wallace Line that divides Asia and Australasia, East Nusa Tenggara consists of more than 500 islands....

Rather an under-the-radar destination, this mesmerizing province has stolen the limelight and dethroned Bali on the global hotlist. If you are Bali-bound traveler, this budget-friendly wonderland with pink-sand beaches, less crowds and some of the best diving spots in Indonesia will make you change your mind. East Nusa Tenggara is now attracting more visitor thanks to world-famous Komodo dragons from Komodo National Park. Besides the giant lizards, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is home to an extraordinary land and underwater wildlife. If you are more into underground explorations, check out Mirror Cave and Rangko Cave near Labuan Bajo. The most fascinating island of East Nusa Tenggara is Flores with its pristine lakes and waterfalls, spectacular diving sites and exotic underwater life. By far the most impressive underwater splendors await diving lovers around Alor Island, the easternmost tip of Flores. Bonus tip – don’t miss a chance to try night diving.
