Peucang Island

Peucang Island features extensive coral reefs, white sand beaches, and dense forests within its 77-meter elevation landscape in Ujung Kulon National Park.

The island gained UNESCO World Heritage status alongside Panaitan and Handeuleum Islands as part of conservation efforts to protect Java's rainforest ecosystems.

The waters surrounding Peucang Island support local fishing communities who maintain their traditional maritime practices through generations.

Visitors reach the island via a 2.5-hour boat journey from Sumur District, with accommodations ranging from basic lodges to comfortable resorts.

The island functions as a primary gateway for exploring Indonesia's last remaining lowland rainforests and observing native wildlife species.
