The Islands adventure begins! In this video, I set out on an unforgettable solo journey to Banggai Kepulauan and Paisupok, the mirror lake of Sulawesi which might just be the world’s clearest lake.
Starting in Luwuk, I take my motorcycle, Macan, on a ferry to Salakan and ride through a day full of adventure and exploration. From scenic road experiences to relaxing at Poganda Beach, every moment brings something new.
I stay at Azzahra Beach Cottages and visit Danau Paisupok, Sulawesi’s famous "Mirror Lake," which feels like a scene straight out of a movie.
Later, I’m lucky enough to witness a pod of dolphins passing by Poganda Beach—an unforgettable encounter with Indonesia's wildlife.
This video is the first in a mini series capturing the Banggai Islands' beauty. Whether you're dreaming of solo travel, curious about Indonesia's remote islands, or just enjoy motorcycle adventures, this series has something for you.
The journey wraps up as I ride back to Salakan, where I prepare for the next leg of my Banggai adventure, continuing to the remote paradise of Mbuang Mbuang.
Watch, enjoy, and subscribe to follow the entire Sabang to Merauke journey and explore Indonesia’s hidden gems along the way!
