KBRN, Ranai: The Natuna Islands, located on Indonesia’s northern border, are renowned for their marine tourism and underwater beauty. Among its many natural attractions, Resak Bay Beach in Jermajik Village, Serasan Subdistrict, has recently begun to draw attention as a new destination.

With soft white sand, clear waters, and stunning natural scenery, Resak Bay Beach has quickly become a favorite spot for visitors. Local teenagers often spend time there to relax, while families are beginning to see it as an ideal weekend getaway.

Amri, a frequent visitor, said he goes to the beach every Saturday and Sunday. “This beach is beautiful and perfect for family vacations on the weekends because of its unique natural scenery,” he said.

Beyond its appeal as a leisure destination, Resak Bay Beach also serves as a turtle nesting site, enhancing its ecological significance. The natural beauty of Natuna, from its beaches to its coral reefs, continues to attract tourists seeking both relaxation and adventure.

For those planning a trip to Natuna, Resak Bay Beach in Serasan is increasingly regarded as a must-visit destination.

Travelers heading to Resak Bay Beach in Serasan, Natuna, usually begin their journey with a flight from Jakarta to Ranai, the capital of Natuna Regency. Flights to Raden Sadjad Airport in Ranai take about two to three hours, though schedules are limited and require booking.

From Ranai, visitors continue by sea to Serasan Island. Ferries and local boats operate on this route, with travel times of 13 to 14 hours depending on weather and sea conditions.

Once on Serasan Island, Resak Bay Beach is located in Jermajik Village, Serasan Subdistrict. Visitors typically use local transport, such as motorcycles or small vehicles, to reach the beach from the port.

Because of its remote location, travel to Resak Bay Beach requires careful planning. Ferry schedules are often affected by rough seas, and facilities on Serasan remain basic.

However, the journey rewards visitors with pristine white sand, clear waters, and the natural charm of one of Natuna’s emerging tourist destinations. (Misni Parjiati/Lasti Martina)
