Social Travel

If you ever visited Thousand Islands. You will/ can find Panggang Island, one of the populated island there. It's located in the west of main island, Pramuka Island. You can reach Panggang Island by traditional boat called "ojeg". Only Rp 5.000,- (about $ 0,6). or you can try this, but it's not recommended. You can go there by swimming (WOW). For your info, Panggang island's people usually swim across the deep see from Panggang to Pramuka. It's about a hundred meters long. Wanna Try?

So, what will you see there? I'll tell you, there are a lot houses and fishponds with many little alleys. Most of them are fisherman and crew of big ship. Here, not like another island which have many beautiful beach, there is a small beach with smooth sand and beautiful view. what you can do is visiting the society here. Many people here come from many district. Most of them are from land (Jakarta) and from another island in Thousand Islands. So, in this island there are a lot of culture you can fell, and a lot of society you can learn.

Don't be afraid, Panggang's people are kind people. One of them is my friend, Al Fajrin, or I usually call 'Aal'. He is one of Dermaga Travel guide who has a lot of experience about Thousand Islands.
So, Will you visit this Island someday?
