ACTIVITIES

Java Turtle Beach caters for both adventure lovers and those who wish to relax in a hammock with a good book.

Our activities include:

Sukamade turtle

conservation

Our most highly rated and recommended activity!

This involves a one and a half hour jeep expedition in the jungle, going past forest-dwelling villages and through rivers, with plenty of wildlife to be seen on the way such as monkeys and hornbills.

After settling in and enjoying dinner, you will then be lead by a ranger to the beach, where you can star gaze until the assistant rangers find a female turtle.

This moonlit experience of observing these beautiful, giant creatures emerging from the sea and laying over 100 eggs is nothing short of incredible.

After spending the night in the jungle, there is the opportunity in the morning to visit the hatchery and release a bucket of baby turtles into the sea, before setting off in the jeep back to Java Turtle Lodge.

Green Bay

This Local beach is famous for its white coral sand and beach waterfall.

Only A short distance away, Green Bay is the definition of paradise. The sea is a pleasant 27-30° all year round and the beach is untouched and quiet; giving the ‘castaway feel’ to anyone who lounges upon it.

Local culture bike tour

Feel the breeze on your face as you cycle through villages, forest and coastline, boasting spectacular views along the way.

This is a great way to meet local people and discover how dragon fruit is cultivated, how brown sugar is grown and refined and the process of rubber farming.

Our local culture bike tour is a must do for anyone visiting Java Turtle Lodge.

Boat trip

and overnight camp

Our fishing trips allow guests to unleash their inner survivalist, by catching their dinner and cooking on a secluded beach, only accessible by boat.

This also comes with the option to camp within the jungle, shut off from all modern luxuries and communications. Not for the faint of heart!
