Ambon Bay
A breathtaking view of the deep-water bay, the iconic Merah Putih Bridge, and the bustling city waterfront.
Leitimur Peninsula
The more developed southern half of Ambon Island with its dramatic cliffs and hidden coves.
Lease Islands
Distant glimpses of Saparua and Nusa Laut islands, famous for their historical forts and spice trade legacy.
Tayando-Tam Islands
Incredible turquoise coral rings and isolated lagoons that appear like jewels in the open ocean.
Ngurbloat Beach
The famous 'Longest White Sand Beach' in Asia becomes visible on the approach to Dumatumbun, showcasing its brilliant white strip.
The right side is essential for the Kai approach. Use a polarizing filter if taking photos to capture the vibrant turquoise colors of the reefs. The best lighting is typically mid-morning when the sun is high enough to illuminate the coral but not create excessive water reflection.
