Trip itinerary
Day 1: TAMBOLAKA AIRPORT – WATUMALANDONG – BWANNA BEACH (L, D)
Upon arrival at the airport of Tambolaka in Waitabula, you will be picked up by our tour guide and we will begin the journey. We will drive for 1,5 hours to visit the secret beach of Watumalandong and Bwanna where you can see the beautiful view of both beaches from one point. The beach of Bwanna is a long clear colorful sand beach under the majestic cliff heading to the Indian Ocean makes this place extraordinary. Whilst its beauty is unquestionable, the beach is still unknown by most tourist, which make it almost private and very clean. Enjoy the day at a quiet beach until the sunset and transfer back to the hotel. Please get your bag ready with a towel and extra clothes as we might head here directly from the airport.
Day 2: VILLAGE of RATENGGARO – WEEKURI LAKE – BEACH MANDORAK (B, L, D)
After breakfast, we will visit the traditional village Ratenggaro in Kodi area. Here we will see the traditional high rooftops houses (actually the highest rooftops in whole Sumba) made all by hand and traditionally. This village is the only one of a few traditional villages left in the area, and while the village is just a compound of some houses, each house can accommodate up to 50 family members. During the harvesting season, however, most of the villagers will stay in their fields to work and only leave the elders and children in the village. Locals normally walk their horses and cows to the area so be sure to have the camera ready for the shots. From Ratenggarro we will head to Weekuri Lake, a crystal clear lake that makes it a great place to swim and relax. Spend some time in the lake for taking a short (or long) dip. Next to the Weekuri Lake, we will find Mandorak Beach, guarded with 2 huge rock ridges pointing to the middle and crystal clear water. We will watch the sunset on this beach and head back to the hotel.
DAY 3: TAMBOLAKA AIRPORT (B)
Breakfast at the hotel and free time until we have to go to the airport to catch the flight. Our driver and guide will be ready at the lobby of the hotel at the appointed time to escort us to the airport to catch the flight to our next destination
