Step-by-step itinerary

Bintan Sand Dunes and Blue Lakes Tour

  • Pick up from hotel or ferry terminal
  • Visit Bintan Sand Dunes and Blue Lakes
  • Enjoy seafood lunch at local restaurant
  • Visit local souvenir and handicraft shops
  • Return to hotel or ferry terminal

The experience

Gurun Pasir Busung started as a mining site and was abandoned, but the golden sand dunes that remain now look like an Arabian desert landscape dropped into Bintan. Alongside the dunes sits a surreal blue lake: actually a flooded mining crater that gradually filled with rainwater over time. The contrast between the two is what draws visitors willing to travel the distance from the resort areas to see it.

The tour picks you up from your hotel or from Bandar Bentan Telani (BBT) Ferry Terminal and takes you to both the sand dunes and the blue lake with a guide who speaks English or Chinese. You'll have time to walk and photograph the dunes and the lake, then head to a local kelong seafood restaurant for a set-menu lunch. The route back includes a stop at local souvenir and handicraft shops before you return to your starting point. The whole outing runs four to five hours, and you get air-conditioned transport, bottled drinking water and entry to both sites included.
