Or, as it&#8217;s known, Indonesia&#8217;s Maldives. We&#8217;ve never seen water as crystal-clear and turquoise-blue as in the <strong>archipelago of the Karimunjawa National Park<\/strong>, anywhere else in Indonesia. Located about 80 kilometers off the coast of Java, you&#8217;ll find yourself in a true <strong>island paradise,<\/strong> a world away from mass tourism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We&#8217;d go as far as to say: Karimunjawa is still something of a <strong>hidden gem<\/strong> in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/en\/travelblog\/indonesia\/\">Indonesia<\/a>. Probably because getting there takes quite a bit of time and a little preparation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Planning a trip to Karimunjawa? Epic! It really is such a gem of a place. In the following article, you&#8217;ll find <strong>our tips for your journey<\/strong> to this island paradise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1000\/668;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1000\" data-pswp-height=\"668\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"24843\" sizeSlug=\"full\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-24843 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Tipps.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Tipps.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Tipps-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Tipps-768x513.jpg 768w\" alt=\"Karimunjawa Travel Guide\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Karimunjawa: A Glimpse into the Dream Islands &amp; Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Karimunjawa Islands are located about 80 kilometers north of Java&#8217;s coast in the Java Sea. This archipelago consists of <strong>27 tropical islands<\/strong>, but only a few of them are inhabited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>main island<\/strong> of the Karimunjawa archipelago is <strong>Karimunjawa<\/strong> (or Karimun), which is connected to the <strong>second-largest island, Kemujan<\/strong>, by a bridge. When people talk about Karimunjawa, they&#8217;re referring to both the main island and the entire group of islands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the Karimunjawa Islands, you can expect a lot of <strong>local flair<\/strong>, lush vegetation with mangroves and palms, and, of course, endless beaches and ocean. The most beautiful beaches aren&#8217;t so much on the main island, but rather on the tiny, mostly uninhabited islands. Here, you can look forward to a <strong>Caribbean vibe<\/strong> with white sandy beaches and light blue water \u2013 absolute dream!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Who Are the Karimunjawa Islands Suitable For?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>For Explorers:<\/strong> Karimunjawa isn&#8217;t particularly easy to reach, nor does it offer a luxury vacation. Those traveling to Karimunjawa should be ready for a bit of an adventure.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>For Adventurous Families:<\/strong> We&#8217;ve also met families with children and can imagine that it would be quite an experience for the little ones on the island.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>For Island Lovers:<\/strong> You&#8217;re a long way from the mainland and surrounded by the ocean. A bit of a preference for beaches and saltwater would be good if you&#8217;re planning to travel to Karimunjawa.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Karimunjawa, there are neither parties, shopping malls, nor luxury resorts \u2013 fortunately! Instead, you can look forward to plenty of <strong>local flair<\/strong>. Karimunjawa remains very authentic and the island group is especially popular with Indonesian tourists as a weekend getaway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Travel Guide for Indonesia: Our Tip<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Personally, we never travel without a printed guidebook. In Asia, we&#8217;ve got a clear favourite: Lonly Planet. We really like the Lonly Planet travel guides. They&#8217;re well-researched and perfect for independent travellers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Lonly Planet guidebook for Indonesia has been our go-to for several trips. It&#8217;s (as expected from LP) very detailed and filled with super tips. Karimunjawa also gets a few pages of coverage in this guidebook \u2013 impressive considering its remoteness. We definitely recommend it.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-affiliate\">\n      <div class=\"affiliate\">\n      <div class=\"affiliate-icon\">\n        <div>\n                      <svg class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-book\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fal\"\n                 data-icon=\"book\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\">\n              <path fill=\"currentColor\"\n                    d=\"M448 368v-320C448 21.49 426.5 0 400 0h-320C35.82 0 0 35.82 0 80V448c0 35.35 28.65 64 64 64h368c8.844 0 16-7.156 16-16S440.8 480 432 480H416v-66.95C434.6 406.4 448 388.8 448 368zM32 80C32 53.49 53.49 32 80 32H96v352H64c-11.71 0-22.55 3.389-32 8.9V80zM384 480H64c-17.64 0-32-14.36-32-32s14.36-32 32-32h320V480zM400 384H128V32h272C408.8 32 416 39.17 416 48v320C416 376.8 408.8 384 400 384zM352 128H192C183.2 128 176 135.2 176 144S183.2 160 192 160h160c8.844 0 16-7.156 16-16S360.8 128 352 128zM352 224H192C183.2 224 176 231.2 176 240S183.2 256 192 256h160c8.844 0 16-7.156 16-16S360.8 224 352 224z\"><\/path>\n            <\/svg>\n                  <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"affiliate-body\">\n        <p><strong>You can buy the guidebook here:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3MZcS7I\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Lonly Planet Indonesia<\/a> (November 2021 Edition)<\/p>\n\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best Time of Year for Karimunjawa<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Indonesia, there are two seasons: dry and rainy. Generally, the <strong>dry season<\/strong> lasts from <strong>April to October<\/strong> in Indonesia, and that&#8217;s the period we&#8217;d recommend for a trip to Karimunjawa. While the dry season doesn&#8217;t guarantee good weather (it can still rain!), the weather tends to be more stable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During the rainy season, especially from <strong>December to February<\/strong>, the Java Sea can get extremely rough!! It&#8217;s not uncommon for boat services to be suspended for days due to strong waves. Besides, experiencing a tropical island in bad weather isn&#8217;t much fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Indonesien-Reisetipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"24696\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-24696 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Indonesien-Reisetipps-1024x684.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Indonesien-Reisetipps-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Indonesien-Reisetipps-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Indonesien-Reisetipps-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Indonesien-Reisetipps.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Indonesia Travel Guide\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Getting to Karimunjawa: Our Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most common way to reach Karimunjawa is by boat from the port town of Jepara. Since the boats leave early in the morning, you&#8217;ll likely need to spend a night in Jepara. Additionally, since 2019, there&#8217;s been a flight option from Semarang to Karimunjawa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">By Boat from Jepara: Ferry vs. Speedboat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So there are two ports with boats to Karimunjawa: Jepara and Semarang. However, boat service from Semarang has been gradually stopped or paused, making <strong>Jepara the first choice<\/strong> to travel to Karimunjawa. As of April 2020, there are no boats from Semarang!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are two types of boats: the slower, large ferry (Siginjai) and the speedboat (Express Boat Bahari). We&#8217;ve taken the slow ferry on the way there and the speedboat on the way back, so we can share our experiences with both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Important: Whichever boat you choose, <strong>departure times<\/strong> can always change! Therefore, keep in touch with the respective company or contact your accommodation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Option 1: With the Slow Ferry (Siginjai) <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The local ferry is definitely the <strong>more relaxed way<\/strong> to reach Karimunjawa by water. The ferry doesn&#8217;t operate daily, but only on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, and only once a day, early in the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Important: Check the schedule before your trip!<\/strong> It can change depending on the season. There&#8217;s a website, but it&#8217;s only in Indonesian: <a href=\"https:\/\/trip.ferizy.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Local Ferry<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We personally felt <strong>safer<\/strong> on the ferry than on the speedboat. Sure, the huge ship sways quite a bit, but it&#8217;s bearable. If you get seasick easily, you should definitely stock up on the appropriate remedies \u2013 many people around us were sick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>departure time<\/strong> was officially around 6:45 AM for us, but from experience, we can confirm that the ferry often leaves earlier if it&#8217;s full. We were able to reserve our ticket through our wonderful accommodation (Ayu Hotel \u2013 more on that later). Otherwise, you have to buy your ticket on the morning of the crossing directly at the harbor. The ticket counter opens at 5 AM. In high season, you should be there no later than 5 AM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The return trip from Karimunjawa to Jepara leaves every Tuesday and Sunday morning (around 7 AM) or Thursday and Friday at 1:30 PM. (Again, important: Check the schedule in advance to make sure the times are correct!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Duration<\/em>: About 5 hours <em>Price<\/em>: 92,500 IDR per person for Economy Class or 111,000 IDR for VIP Class + a small harbour fee<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Option 2: With the Speedboat (Express Boat Bahari) <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>faster option<\/strong> is a crossing with the Fast Boat. This operates four times a week from Jepara: Monday, Tuesday, Friday (each at 9 AM), and Saturday at 11 AM. More information on times can be found on the official website, which is unfortunately only available in Indonesian: <a href=\"https:\/\/expressbahari.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Express Boat Bahari<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the day of our crossing, there was quite <strong>high wave action<\/strong>, so we don\u2019t exactly have the fondest memeories of the speedboat journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Heads up: if you get seasick easily, be sure to be prepared. Nice bonus: Plastic bags are included in your ticket and are distributed by the cabin crew in advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also book tickets for the Fast Boat in advance on this website: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.directferries.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Direct Ferries<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Price<\/em>: 200,000 IDR per person for Executive Class or 230,000 IDR for VIP Class <em>Duration<\/em>: About 2 hours<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Important: Sea Conditions in the Java Sea <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before crossing to Karimunjawa, always keep an eye on the wave conditions. The Java Sea can be quite rough \u2013 for example, on our return trip, we were really shaken up. In case of doubt, it&#8217;s best to contact your accommodation in Karimunjawa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>You can view the forecast here:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmkg.go.id\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Wave Forecast<\/a> (The page is only available in Indonesian \u2013 scroll to the section &#8220;Prakiraan Tinggi Gelombang&#8221; (= &#8220;Wave Height Forecast&#8221; in English).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">By Plane to Karimunjawa<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Karimunjawa has a tiny airport, <strong>Dewadaru Airport<\/strong>. Until the pandemic, it was served three times a week by Wings Air (a subsidiary of Lion Air) from Semarang: Monday, Friday, and Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The airport in Karimunjawa is located in the northern part of Kemujan Island, which, as mentioned, is connected by a bridge to the main island of Karimunjawa. It takes about <strong>30 minutes<\/strong> by car from the airport <strong>to the main town<\/strong> in the south of the island. We recommend arranging transport to your accommodation in advance, as there is no public bus and taxis are extremely rare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Currently (as of Autumn 2023), there are NO flights to Karimunjawa! Should Wings Air resume operations, you can book your ticket on the Lion Air website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/F\u00e4hren-Indonesien-Sicherheit.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"24700\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-24700 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/F\u00e4hren-Indonesien-Sicherheit-1024x684.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/F\u00e4hren-Indonesien-Sicherheit-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/F\u00e4hren-Indonesien-Sicherheit-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/F\u00e4hren-Indonesien-Sicherheit-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/F\u00e4hren-Indonesien-Sicherheit.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Ferry Indonesia Safety\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1000\/668;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Anreise.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1000\" data-pswp-height=\"668\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"24838\" sizeSlug=\"full\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-24838 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Anreise.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Anreise.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Anreise-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Anreise-768x513.jpg 768w\" alt=\"Karimunjawa Ferry\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Getting Around in Karimunjawa<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Karimunjawa, there are <strong>no public transport options<\/strong>! So, you&#8217;ll need a <strong>moped<\/strong>. You can rent one for 75,000 IDR per day (or more precisely, per 24 hours). And just a heads-up, there are no helmets available: <em>&#8220;No helmet, no police, no problem&#8221;,<\/em> as our guesthouse owner put it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <strong>roads<\/strong> can be a bit rough in certain places, but there&#8217;s <strong>hardly any traffic<\/strong> (apart from the neighbor&#8217;s kids on their bikes or mopeds). We usually don&#8217;t recommend learning to ride a moped in Southeast Asia for beginners, but in Karimunjawa, the roads are really quiet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The biggest hazards are the potholes and gravel roads, but with a bit of practice, it&#8217;s manageable. Remember, <strong>traffic drives on the left<\/strong> in Indonesia. But don&#8217;t worry: You&#8217;ll get used to it pretty quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Motorrad-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"24829\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-24829 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Motorrad-Tipps-1024x684.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Motorrad-Tipps-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Motorrad-Tipps-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Motorrad-Tipps-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Motorrad-Tipps.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Karimunjawa Scooter Tips\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Fortbewegung-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"24840\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-24840 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Fortbewegung-Tipps-1024x684.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Fortbewegung-Tipps-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Fortbewegung-Tipps-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Fortbewegung-Tipps-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Fortbewegung-Tipps.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Karimunjawa Getting around\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1000\/668;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Traumstrand.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1000\" data-pswp-height=\"668\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"24867\" sizeSlug=\"full\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1000\" height=\"668\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-24867 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Traumstrand.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Traumstrand.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Traumstrand-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Karimunjawa-Traumstrand-768x513.jpg 768w\" alt=\"Karimunjawa Beach\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Beaches in Karimunjawa<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First things first: the beaches in Karimunjawa are pretty pristine. Depending on the currents and time of year, you might find a fair bit of driftwood (branches, coral fragments, etc.) on some of the beaches. Personally, we didn&#8217;t mind this at all \u2013 in fact, we quite liked it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During our visit, the beaches weren&#8217;t littered but were actually very clean \u2013 although we&#8217;ve read in other travel accounts that sometimes <strong>rubbish<\/strong> does wash ashore. This seems to mostly affect the smaller beaches, which are less frequently cleaned, if at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the beaches on the two main islands (Karimunjawa &amp; Kemujan) are stunning, in our opinion, the real dream beaches \u2013 with crystal clear, turquoise-blue waters \u2013 are found on the smaller neighbouring islands. On our snorkelling trip (which we&#8217;ll tell you more about shortly), we landed on <strong>secluded, paradise-like beaches straight out of a picture book.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tanjung Gelam Beach (= Pantai Ujung Gelam)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This beach at the western tip of the main island of Karimunjawa is considered <strong>one of the most beautiful on the island<\/strong>. A small entry fee is charged here, but in return, the beach is regularly cleaned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Tanjung Gelam Beach is great for swimming. However, it&#8217;s most popular at sunset. Because you can watch magnificent <strong>sunsets<\/strong> from this beach, Tanjung Gelam Beach is often known as <strong>Sunset Beach<\/strong>. There are also a few bars where you can buy drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The beach is <strong>quite long<\/strong> \u2013 it&#8217;s worth walking a bit further. We climbed over some rocks and had a small bay all to ourselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Barakuda Beach (= Pantai Barakuda)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Barakuda Beach is located in the east of the island, near Ary\u2019s Lagoon Bungalow &amp; Hotel. During our visit, we were (almost) the only guests there. We opened a fallen coconut with our bare hands and drank the coconut water \u2013 <strong>Robinson Crusoe vibes<\/strong> at its best!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">White Beach (= Pantai Bobi)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">White Beach, also known as Pantai Bobi, is also in the <strong>east of Karimunjawa<\/strong>, specifically in the southern part, not too far from the main town of the island. A small entry fee is charged here, but in return, White Beach is one of the cleanest on the island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to experience the <strong>sunrise<\/strong> in Karimunjawa: White Beach is perfect for that, as it faces east. You&#8217;ll also find a few eateries on the beach where you can buy food and drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Indonesien.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"24864\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-24864 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Indonesien-1024x684.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Indonesien-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Indonesien-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Indonesien-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Indonesien.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Karimunjawa Indonesia\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Tanjung Gelam Beach (Pantai Ujung Gelam)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Highlights.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"24866\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-24866 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Highlights-1024x684.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Highlights-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Highlights-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Highlights-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/Karimunjawa-Highlights.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Karimunjawa Highlights\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Tanjung Gelam Beach (Pantai Ujung Gelam)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Strand-Karimunjawa-Tipps.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"42867\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-42867 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Strand-Karimunjawa-Tipps-1024x684.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Strand-Karimunjawa-Tipps-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Strand-Karimunjawa-Tipps-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Strand-Karimunjawa-Tipps-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Strand-Karimunjawa-Tipps.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Karimunjawa best Beach\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Barakuda Beach (Pantai Barakuda)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Snorkelling in Karimunjawa<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unlike in many other regions of Southeast Asia, the underwater world around the Karimunjawa Archipelago is still relatively intact. So, our tip: Don&#8217;t miss a snorkelling trip in Karimunjawa! Not to mention, the <strong>small islands<\/strong> around Karimunjawa are paradisiacally beautiful. Snow-white sand &amp; turquoise-blue water \u2013 it doesn&#8217;t get much better than this!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We booked our <strong>snorkelling day trip<\/strong> directly at our accommodation (more on that soon). The trip takes place in small, manageable groups and starts after breakfast. In the morning, there&#8217;s plenty of time to explore the underwater world. All the necessary equipment is provided for you. You don&#8217;t need to bring anything (unless you want to, of course).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Around midday, the fishing boat heads towards a breathtakingly beautiful, tiny, and secluded island. Here, the crew whips up <strong>lunch<\/strong>, which you can savour right under the shade of the palm trees. After lunch, you&#8217;ve got some time to yourself on this solitary island \u2013 you could go for a swim or just bask in the sunshine. Then, it&#8217;s time to head back on the boat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cost of the day trip varies depending on the size of your group. We were a party of six and paid 250,000 IDR per person. Don&#8217;t forget: wearing a T-shirt will protect you from the harsh sunrays while snorkelling!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped

Our Accommodation Recommendation for Karimunjawa<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Accommodation options in Karimunjawa are still quite limited, mostly ranging from simple to slightly more upscale guesthouses. Thankfully, you won&#8217;t find any massive hotel complexes here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our top pick: Ayu Hotel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We stayed at the <strong>stunning<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/id\/ayu-karimunjawa-karimunjawa.en.html?aid=874507\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Ayu Hotel<\/a> and wholeheartedly recommend it. The main house, with its lovely design and vast garden, is just the beginning. The rooms and bungalows are beautifully furnished as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We had the pleasure of staying in a <strong>bungalow<\/strong> with an open-air bathroom \u2013 simply marvellous! The entire facility was completely renovated in 2018, making you feel at home from the moment you arrive. This is thanks in no small part to the friendly hosts, Marco and Eryl, who go out of their way to ensure their guests&#8217; comfort. The atmosphere is very family-oriented and personal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The culinary experience was top-notch: the <strong>breakfast<\/strong>, prepared and served by Eryl in the main house, varied daily and was delicious. The dinners were equally exceptional. We also thoroughly enjoyed the snorkelling tour they offered. <strong>Our verdict:<\/strong> A clear recommendation with great value for money!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just a heads-up: Many accommodations in Karimunjawa, including the Ayu Hotel, aren&#8217;t located right by the sea. But you can quickly reach the beaches by scooter. Handy to know \u2013 the friendly staff will pick you up directly from the pier upon arrival, which is a real plus after a tiring journey.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-affiliate\">\n      <div
