Maratua Island was one of must-visit in our Derawan Trip. The trip to Maratua Island took about one hour boat ride from the island of Derawan, or two hours ride from the Tanjung Batu Port in Berau mainland. Our family of four visited Maratua in early morning when the tide was high. Arriving in Maratua Paradise Resort, we were amazed by the clarity of seawater along the coastal line of the island. Happily we decided to swim nearby the resort. The location was secluded and remote. It was so peaceful and calm, very good choice for family vacation, when you need to get in touch each other closely. We enjoy our leisure time here. Around the island, there are plenty of dive and snorkle points, offering beautiful views of coral reef and under water habitat. There are also several limestone caves inland. One of them called Haji Mangku Cave, we did visit the spot and did some jumps into the still water inside the cave, from the limstone wall, about 5 meters height. It was fun time for the kids.
