tips liburan ke belitung

Since the film Laskar Pelangi, adapted from the novel of the same name by Andrea Hirata, Bangka Belitung has become a prime tourist destination for local and international travelers. This island province has more than 400 islands, with 50 inhabited islands.

If you want to vacation in Bangka Belitung, you need to pay attention to several things, from booking flight tickets to accommodations. Especially if you are going there for solo traveling, you definitely need to keep an eye on your budget to make it cheaper. Well, you can consider the following 5 things.

Transportation: Cheap Tickets and Vehicle Rentals

Finding cheap flight tickets to Bangka Belitung means you have to be smart about looking for promotions from travel apps like Traveloka and Pegipegi. However, this can be managed by booking flight tickets well in advance, not last minute, or looking for tickets during promotional periods such as double dates, year-end, or approaching major holidays.

Now, once you arrive in Bangka Belitung, for tourists who do not bring their own vehicles, there are many vehicle rental services available, my friend. There are indeed many public transportation options, but it is more flexible for tourists if they can use their own vehicles, right? You can rent a motor vehicle for about Rp75,000 and around Rp350,000 for a car. This rental price is valid for a full day.

Accommodation: Can Book for at Least Rp100,000

As an area with many tourist destinations, Bangka Belitung certainly has a lot of accommodation options. From homestays to star-rated hotels. Tourists can find them through travel apps with the cheapest prices starting around Rp109,000.

The facilities provided by accommodations can vary, from homestays that have only a few rooms with a shared bathroom to rooms with complete facilities including en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning, and internet access throughout the accommodation.

Beach Tourism in the Thousand Beaches Region

Bangka Belitung, which is an archipelago with nearly five hundred islands, certainly has many beach tourism destinations. This province is even known as the thousand beaches tourism due to the abundance of beach attractions.

The beaches in Bangka Belitung are so beautiful, rivaling those in Bali, Lombok, or Yogyakarta. When visiting the beach, don't forget to bring your swimsuit because swimming in the sea is allowed when the waves are not big, and don't forget the sunblock, my friend.

Hill Tourism: Enjoying Bangka Belitung from Heights

Not only beaches, but Bangka Belitung also has its characteristics with its highlands. The highlands in Bangka Belitung even reach up to 450 meters above sea level. If you vacation here, you definitely have to try hiking its hills.

Entrance tickets to hill tourism destinations range from Rp2,000 to Rp10,000. Quite affordable, but you need to prepare yourself by maintaining your stamina because the path to the hill and the hike up is only a winding footpath, which can be tiring if you are not used to walking long distances. However, once you reach the top of the hill, the fatigue will surely be worth it as you can see the expanse of beaches and the Bangka Belitung region from above.

Culinary: Seafood from the Archipelago

Bangka Belitung is famous for its seafood dishes, including fish and shellfish. There are otak-otak, fish meatballs, and fish-based crackers that are savory and delicious. The prices of these foods are also quite affordable, starting from just Rp15,000. For dry foods like crackers and fried meatballs, they can also be bought as souvenirs, my friend.
