Embark on a thrilling 4WD Jeep safari to Meru Betiri National Park. Our route will take us through picturesque villages, alongside winding canal rivers, and amidst lush coffee, cacao, and rubber plantations. We'll then make a stop to observe the traditional brown sugar production with locals, a unique learning experience. This sugar, made from coconut blossom nectar, is collected in the morning after afternoon extraction. After a satisfying lunch at a local eatery, we'll stroll along Rajegwesi Beach, encountering a charming fisherman village at the park's entrance.
Our Jeep adventure continues through dense jungle terrain, past more plantations, and across several rivers, culminating in our arrival at Sukamade Guest House for an overnight stay. Following a simple dinner, we'll venture out for an unforgettable night of turtle observation. A Jeep ride will lead us to the Sukamade Ranger Post for registration and a briefing, after which we'll embark on a night walk to the beach. If fortune favors us, we'll witness the magical sight of turtles laying eggs. We'll return to the Guest House late into the night.
