Western Papua is the third largest island in the world, bordered by the Arufa Sea and the Pacific Ocean. It is the dream destination if you are looking for a heavenly coastline with coasts still in their natural state.
Enjoy the white sand beach and turquoise sea of Biak Island while watching the movement of fishermen. If you want to go diving in peace and admire picturesque landscapes, plan a getaway to one of the islets of the Raja Ampat archipelago.
Exploring the Baliem Valley is also a must. The site is only accessible by plane from Jayapura when arriving at Wamena. Once there, you can go hiking for a few days. You will be delighted to have chance encounters during your journey. Indeed, villages that still live in an ancestral way are nestled there. The Yani, Dani and Lani tribes mainly inhabit these.
Also, don't forget to explore Lake Sentani during your stay and fall under the spell of the stilt houses there. West Papua is also a bird paradise! The province is home to just under 800 species of this winged oviparous animal. You will find several in the town of Manokwari. ◄
