Bintan Islands, Indonesia

 

4d3n SAILING HOLIDAY • first-timer

 

Bintan Island is the largest among the 3,200 islands within the Riau Archipelago, located only 30 nautical miles from Singapore. Famous for its luxurious resorts perched on white sandy beaches and clear turquoise waters, Bintan is a popular choice for a short getaway among many Singaporeans.

While most travel by ferry and spend most of their time lepak-ing (Malay for 'chilling out') within their resort, let us bring you to the less traveled islands surrounding Bintan, where you can swim, snorkel and kayak at your own pace.
