Interesting Tourist Activities to Do in Ujung Kulon National Park

Ujung Kulon National Park is the perfect choice for friends who want to enjoy nature tourism. Because there, friends can engage in various exciting nature tourism activities.

In this article, we will inform you about the nature tourism activities that can be done there. So, what are those nature tourism activities?

Enjoying the Beauty of the Beach on Peucang Island

The first nature tourism activity that friends can do on Peucang Island, one of the islands in the Ujung Kulon National Park area.

There, friends can enjoy the beach available. Sunset is the best time to go there. Because, friends can gaze at the beautiful sunset on Peucang Island when dusk arrives.

It would be very serene if friends enjoy it while sitting on the sandy beach of Peucang Island. Or, you can also take shelter under the trees that are there. Besides enjoying the sunset, friends can also go snorkeling or take photos at the pier while on Peucang Island.

Enjoying the Scenery While Seeing Hindu Relics on Panaitan Island

There are still other islands around Ujung Kulon that are worth visiting. Panaitan Island is what we mean. On this island, friends can enjoy the beautiful scenery there.

From lush green forest views to its beautiful beaches. Friends can also see some wildlife there.

Not just natural scenery and wildlife, Panaitan Island also offers several interesting Hindu relics. Starting from the statue of Ganesha, the statue of Lord Shiva, and several other Hindu teachings relics. The statue of Ganesha and other relics can be found at the peak of Mount Raksa on this island.

Watching Wildlife in Cidaon Grazing Field

It wouldn't feel complete without witnessing a collection of wildlife during your time in Ujung Kulon National Park. If you want to do this, friends can visit the Cidaon Grazing Field.

The Cidaon Grazing Field is located right on the Ujung Kulon peninsula. There, friends will find several types of wildlife, such as peacocks, banteng, wild chickens, long-tailed monkeys, and wild boars.

Relaxing in the Grassland at Tanjung Layar

The Ujung Kulon peninsula not only has the Cidaon Grazing Field. There is another place there that is worth visiting. Tanjung Layar is the place meant.

There, friends will find a beautiful green grassland, complemented by beautiful large coral rocks. While in that grassland, friends can relax while taking photos or gazing at the beautiful sea view.

It takes some effort to reach that grassland. Friends must take a speedboat to the shores of Tanjung Layar, then pass through a fairly challenging forest trail.

The Best Time to Engage in the Above Tourism Activities

Actually, friends can engage in the above tourism activities at any time. However, we recommend doing it around June to August.

During those months, the sea water is relatively calmer. This can make it easier for friends to reach the islands we mentioned and engage in many tourism activities we have explained.

Those are some tourism activities that friends can do while in Ujung Kulon National Park. Hopefully, this can serve as a guide for friends who want to vacation in that nature tourism spot.
