Banyuwangi Travel Guide: 17 reviews and 37 photos
Located in the eastern part of Java island, Banyuwangi is well-known as the producer of banana fruit in Indonesia. One of the specific food/snacks of Banyuwangi is made of banana - called "pisang sale" in Indonesian language (pisang = banana).
Banyuwangi has a port (Ketapang) which connect Java Island with Bali Island. It takes approximately 20 minutes to cross the strait.
The photo I place here was taken from the boat on my way to Bali. It shows the Ketapang port with the background of Mount Raung, an active volcano.
An important cultural heritage in Banyuwangi is a culture & language named "Osing".
This is a photo of traditional sulful mine in Mt. Ijen, which can be reached from Banyuwangi or Bondowoso.
Kawah Ijen
The park has many animals and a beach inside. This is a photo from the Baluran beach.
- Pros:interesting places to visit, friendly people
- Cons:no direct flight
