2026 Riau Islands Travel Guide: must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transport & travel experiences (updated in January)

| Attached is a guide. I recently went to Batam Island in Indonesia and had a great experience! Sharing the following travel experience in Batam, Indonesia, this place is really amazing, so hurry up and read this guide 👇. 🏝Attractions: Pink Beach: As soon as I arrived here, I was amazed, as if I had strayed into a dream scroll 😍. The blue sky and white clouds, the beautiful sunset, the gradient color of the sea and the pink sand beach have a strong visual impact. It is a perfect photo opportunity, and any shot will be a blockbuster. And from time to time there are planes flying over, blowing the sea breeze, listening to the sound of the waves, drinking juice, it is very leisurely. But it gets dark early in Indonesia, so don’t go too late. De' Sands: Known as Indonesia's Little Santorini, the blue and white buildings are like a fairy tale world. Taking photos here is super romantic💕, every frame is so beautiful that it will wow your friends, and little fairies will definitely check it out. Next Level Beachfront Club: A perfect check-in spot for internet celebrities. In the evening, the afterglow is shining, the sea breeze is blowing, and the live band is playing, which fills the atmosphere. You can also ride horses and play water sports on the beach, which is a perfect experience💯. Infinity Beach Club: Connected to Next Level, there is no low-end shopping, it is super lively on weekends, and there are DJs playing songs. Although the food prices are on the high side, dining with music and sea views is a unique experience. 🍱Gourmet articles: Nagoya Foodcourt: A gathering place for authentic Indonesian snacks, where you can taste all kinds of delicacies in one stop to satisfy your taste buds. Golden Prawn: The first choice for seafood! Local friends strongly recommend it. The seafood is freshly caught and cooked. It is extremely fresh and very cost-effective. It costs less than MYR 200 for 6 people. It's close to De'Sand, so it's super convenient to stop by for dinner or a late-night snack after shopping. Love Seafood: It is also a good place to eat crabs and other seafood. The cooking method is Malay-style. If you like unique flavors, don’t miss it. Itsumo: It is said that this is a must-visit cafe in Batam. Their tarts are pretty good, costing more than ten ringgit each. The price and taste are similar to those in Malaysian cafes. 🚗Transportation: Just use Grab to travel in Batam. The starting price is RM3+, which is super cheap. The driver takes orders quickly and can usually get on the bus within 5 minutes, which is very worry-free. In short, Batam is really nice, with beautiful scenery, delicious food, and convenient transportation. Friends who want to go there should make arrangements as soon as possible💃.

· Address: Gurun Pasir Busung on Bintan Island, Riau Islands, Indonesia (also known as Bintan Desert and Blue Lake) · Background Info: This was originally a mining site that naturally formed into a lake after being abandoned. The golden sand dunes contrast sharply with the deep blue lake, earning it the nickname "Apocalyptic Oasis." 🚤 How to Get to Bintan Island The easiest way is from Singapore! · By Ferry: Take a ferry from Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal in Singapore. It takes about 1 hour to reach Bintan Bandar Bentan Telani Ferry Terminal (BBT), which connects directly to the Bintan resort area. · Tip: You can pre-book day tour packages including transportation on platforms like Trip.com for convenience and savings. 🚗 Blue Lake Transportation and Activities Once on Bintan Island, here are recommended ways to get to Blue Lake: 1. Book a full-day or half-day tour: Highly recommended! Many tours include hotel pickup and drop-off, a guide, and Blue Lake entrance tickets. Some even provide bottled water. 2. Private car rental: Ideal for groups. You can book a 6-hour private car service, offering flexibility and freedom to visit other nearby attractions besides Blue Lake. 3. Self-arrival: You can take a taxi from the resort area, but the last stretch of road may be rough, so a vehicle suitable for the terrain is recommended. 📸 Tips for Visiting and Photography · Best photo times: Early morning or late afternoon! The light is softest then, perfectly showcasing the vivid blue of the lake and avoiding the midday heat. · Must-try experiences: · Take a stunning "desert oasis" photo shoot with the golden dunes and deep blue lake as your backdrop. · Experience ATV dune bashing and feel the thrill on the sand. · If you come across local stalls, try taking a photo with an eagle for a unique touch. 💡 Preparation and Tips Before You Go · Essentials to bring: Camera, sunscreen, cash (needed for local stalls), and drinking water. · Safety note: Although Blue Lake is beautiful, swimming is not recommended due to unknown water depth and mineral content. · Nearby attractions: You can include the Five Hundred Arhats Temple and Trikora Beach in a day trip to enrich your journey. Grab your bestie or significant other and get ready for a visual feast at Bintan Island’s Blue Lake! Every photo you take will look like a masterpiece!

This New Year's Eve, I avoided the crowds and the special forces-themed itinerary, opting instead for a low-cost yet incredibly comfortable island getaway—Bintan Island. Staying at the Four Points by Sheraton Bintan Island, Lakowo Bay, the entire trip left me with one feeling: relaxation, utter relaxation. 🏝 Why choose this place? It's easily accessible by ferry from Singapore, making the travel time convenient; the hotel is located in the heart of Lakowo Bay, in a well-developed and not overly developed area. Entering the room and drawing back the curtains revealed the azure sea—it automatically activated my vacation mode. 🛏 Comfortable Stay Clean and spacious rooms with a true resort feel Free high-speed Wi-Fi + daily bottled water. A complimentary local craft beer voucher upon check-in – perfect for an evening drink by the sea. 🍽 Delicious Dining, No Need to Worry About Where to Eat Rempah Kitchen: Indonesian breakfast specialties, a wide variety of choices and flavors, open 6:30 AM – 10:00 PM, no rush! Ararinda Lounge: Relax and unwind with a diverse wine list, enjoy music and a light buzz. El Lagoi Beach Club: A must-visit in the evening for sunset, seafood BBQ, live music, and photos of Orange Beach. 24-Hour Room Service: Perfect for those who get hungry late at night. 🎉 Relaxing and Fun-Filled 3 swimming pool sections: Adult Pool / Children's Pool / Toddler Pool Walking distance to Lagoo Square and Treasure Bay, close to the ferry terminal, and a free shuttle bus available. You can have a packed itinerary or do nothing at all. 🌿 I must rave about the spa: it was absolutely worth it! The hotel combines traditional Indonesian massage techniques with unique body treatments, using herbal essential oils and hot compresses to promote blood circulation and soothe muscle soreness—it was perfect! I personally felt 30 minutes wasn't enough to fully relax, so I tried a 60-minute or longer massage, which was truly amazing! 👨‍👩‍👧 The family-friendly aspect is a huge plus. The hotel has a kids' club and a children's pool. I saw many families with children; the kids had something to do all day, and the adults could truly relax. Choosing this hotel for a family trip is truly worry-free. 📸 Photo spots are all set! Sunset swing at the beach club (a must-capture during the golden hour) Southeast Asian-style courtyard in the villa area (perfect with a floral dress) Spice wall in the breakfast restaurant – every shot is a perfect vacation photo ⛵ Must-do activities if you have enough time: Blue Lagoon half-day tour: the water is unrealistically blue Sunset cruise: pure romance At the Sheraton Bintan Island, enjoy being gently surrounded by the sound of waves and the sunset, and slowly spend a truly personal vacation accompanied by the sea breeze and starry sky.

#bintanguide Cute cafe in Tebet From the beginning, I immediately saved this cafe. It really caught my attention because it was simple but super cute. The cafe only has 1 floor and is dominated by indoor seating. The decoration is cute, the facade is photoable, and the interior is also beautiful. Their service is also nice. It's more suitable for hanging out with friends in my opinion, the seating is mostly for >2 people. The cafe is very comfortable, until I didn't realize I spent hours here. I tried the iced white (40 thousand) but the taste didn't suit me. I'm actually curious about their food menu, so I'll come here again next time! 📍Staple Bonds & Noms Jl. Jaya Mandala III No.8, RT.10/RW.1, Menteng Dalam, Kec. Tebet, South Jakarta City

#bintanguide A tiny restaurant with a menu full of torch ginger. As a die-hard torch ginger (or honje) lover, I was immediately drawn to this new restaurant. Everything is torch ginger, from the chili sauce to the rice and even the drinks. The signature dish is the sticky chicken (31.5k), which is basically like wet fried chicken, but with a white marinade. Using rooster chicken makes it even more savory. It comes with the honje chili sauce. It's savory, deeply flavorful, and just comforting. Eaten with the honje chili sauce and rice (12k), it's even more aromatic and increases your appetite. 😂 Also try the sour chicken soup (31k). It's spicy and sour, but made less sour than other places. It's refreshing to eat on a rainy day. The iced honje (25k) is also refreshing, and I was surprised to find the portion was so large. Overall, the food here is delicious. However, I do think the price is a bit pricey. A meal for two people, including rice and chicken and one drink, costs 111,000 Rupiah. The place is also small and fully indoor, so it can get quite noisy when it's busy. 📍Ceumara Jl. Mangga no. 26, Cihapit, Bandung City #Food

#bintanguide Try Korean-style seblak This sundubu jigae is like Korean seblak. Warm, spicy, and full of spices. The fillings vary, including silken tofu, enoki, and chicken. It's delicious and refreshing on a rainy day. 🤤 The ramyun menu is also a must-have! Turns out the dry version is also delicious. It enhances the bulgogi flavor. You're probably familiar with this halal Korean restaurant that's been around since 2017. What's more, even though the taste is authentic, it still appeals to local palates. I've tried many of their delicious dishes. 🥹 Who else loves them? 📍Mujigae Cihampelas Walk, Bandung City #Food

#bintanguide A Hidden Coffee Shop and Cake Shop in Sutami In the Sutami area, there's a new, somewhat hidden coffee shop and bakehouse. It's not on the main road, but just follow Google Maps to the right spot. It's small, but comfortable for those looking for a more intimate setting. The space is predominantly indoor with ergonomic chairs. The cake selection is quite appealing! Finally, try the lemon cake (48,000 Rupiah), which is refreshingly sweet and pairs well with an Americano. Give it a try! 📍Five O Bake & Brew Jl. Sukahaji No. 3, Sukarasa, Sukasari District, Bandung City #Food

#bintanguide A coffee spot while playing padel Bandung is all the rage right now, isn't it? This time I tried a coffee shop attached to a padel court. This Jogja brand is now expanding to Bandung. The place is small but cozy. There's indoor and outdoor seating overlooking the padel court. The coffee milk is delicious! It uses coconut-flavored milk, giving it a unique taste. I've only found something like this in Bogor, and only here. 📍Hoja Coffee Padel culture club. Jl. Karang Layung Dalam No. 6, Cipedes, Sukajadi District, Bandung City

#bintanguide Cute and comfortable coffeeshop in Bogor One of the coffeeshops that I've been missing for a long time. I like the cute design and lots of natural lighting. It's also comfortable for laptops. There's plenty of seating, indoor, outdoor, private rooms. Although the coffeeshop is only 1 large room, the AC is cold, so it's perfect for cooling off from the Bogor weather during the really hot day. I also like the milk coffee! 📍HAFA coffee & house Jl. Puter No. 2, Tanah Sareal, Bogor City #Food

This island is famous for its large-scale Vietnamese refugee camps in 1979–1996 and became the focus of the United Nations and international circles.
