It is the home of exotic culture and\nbeautiful nature, after all. The region even has a stunning archipelago,\nlocated in the north part of it. One of the best islands to visit, in this\ncase, is called Kenawa. It belongs to Poto Tano Sub-District and offers a\nserene landscape and majestic sea scenery. That means the island is suitable to\nenjoy a peaceful vacation and conduct photography. Some people even take the\nchance to enjoy camping and snorkeling there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The\nNuance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The nuance is both serene and\ncomfortable. It is because Kenawa is considered an uninhabited island. Only\nseveral traditional buildings reside on it, especially the huts located near to\nthe pier. The total size is around 13 hectares and it features numerous\nstunning landscapes too! For instance, a small hill resides in the midst of it.\nPlus, the island is covered by a savanna and several trees. When it comes to\nthe shore, it has a white shoreline with its soft-textured sand. The sea is\ncalm and the water has a nice clarity for snorkeling and swimming!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Exploring\nKenawa Island<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the reasons why Kenawa Island\nfamous is due to the fact that it once becomes a movie set for Serdadu Kumbang.\nTourists are interested to watch the beautiful landscape directly, therefore.\nThe thing is the island is uninhabited, so visitors won\u2019t find facilities and\naccommodations there. That means tourists would feel uncomfortable if they\ndecided to spend the night on the island, without lighting and a proper place\nto sleep. Despite this issue, Kenawa offers perfect scenery and great\nlandscapes for numerous types of tourist activities!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most common thing to do in Kenawa\nIsland is to explore the shoreline. Usually, tourists may reach the pier and\nenjoy either sightseeing or photography on it. That spot is also suitable to\nwitness the stunning sunrise early in the morning! What is more? Aside from\nsightseeing and photography, tourists usually enjoy water sports like swimming\nand snorkeling. Within the range of 3-5 meters, the shore feels like a swimming\npool with its excellent clarity and shallowness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who can\u2019t swim, in this case,\nthey can simply conduct beach walking and hunt for small creatures like\nstarfishes and shells. Later, tourists also need to explore other parts of the\nisland especially the lonely hill located in the midst of the island. From the\ntop of the hill, tourists can even see fishermen\u2019s boats on the horizon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nearby\nAttractions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Ular Island <\/li><li>Namo Beach <\/li><li>Pasir Putih Poto Tano <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How\nto Get There<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From Jakarta City, a trip to Sumbawa\nRegency takes about 4 hours and 5 minutes by airplane. Tourists only need to\nget the suitable airplane at Soekarno \u2013 Hatta International Airport and head to\nSultan Muhammad Kaharudding III Airport right away. Once they arrive at Sumbawa\nBesar City, their next destination is the Badas Port. This may take about 25\nminutes to reach Kenawa Island, actually.
