Discover the less-traveled jewels of the Java Sea. Snorkel and dive among vibrant coral gardens; kayak in secluded bays with hundreds of fish teeming below; and engage with local villagers, learning about their daily lives, music, and crafts—all unique and inspired by the amazing colors and beauty that surround them. Cruise through the remnants of Krakatoa and view the volcano’s “children” that have appeared since the 1883 volcanic explosion, one of the world’s largest.
