Introduction

East Java and West Bali offer some of Indonesia’s most enchanting natural attractions. This 2-day 1-night tour is perfect for travelers who want to explore the region’s unique mix of coastal landmarks, underwater beauty, wildlife safaris, and volcanic wonders. From the iconic Grand Watu Dodol Beach to the breathtaking blue fire of Ijen Crater, this journey delivers unforgettable adventures in a short yet rewarding itinerary.

Day 1: Gend Watu Dodol – Menjangan Island – Baluran National Park

  • Morning: Grand Watu Dodol
    The journey begins at Gend Watu Dodol, a unique beachfront landmark located just outside Banyuwangi city. The iconic large rock sitting by the roadside has become a local symbol and a perfect spot to take photos before heading to the next destination.

  • Snorkeling at Menjangan Island
    Next, the tour crosses the Bali Strait by boat to Menjangan Island, part of West Bali National Park. Known for its crystal-clear waters, vibrant coral reefs, and abundant marine life, this is one of Indonesia’s best snorkeling spots. Travelers can spend the late morning exploring underwater gardens and swimming with colorful fish.

  • Afternoon Safari at Baluran National Park
    After returning from Menjangan, the journey continues to Baluran National Park, often called “Africa of Java” for its wide savanna and free-roaming wildlife such as deer, buffalo, monkeys, and various bird species. The open landscapes and Mount Baluran in the background create a stunning scene for photography.

  • Evening Transfer to Hotel

Day 2: Ijen Crater Sunrise & Blue Fire

  • Midnight or Early-Morning Trek
    The highlight of the tour is the hike to Kawah Ijen (Ijen Crater). Departing around midnight, travelers reach Paltuding Base Camp and start the 3 km trek under the starlit sky.

  • Witness the Famous Blue Fire
    Arriving at the crater rim before dawn allows visitors to see the mystical blue flames, a rare natural phenomenon caused by burning sulfur gas. This view is unique to Ijen and is one of the world’s most sought-after natural spectacles.

  • Sunrise over the Crater Lake
    As daylight breaks, the turquoise-colored acidic lake of Ijen reveals itself, surrounded by rugged volcanic cliffs — a breathtaking reward for the early morning hike.

  • Return and Departure
    After descending from the crater, travelers return to the hotel for breakfast and a short rest before heading back to Banyuwangi or continuing to their next destination.
