We had the most amazing time uncovering an EPIC hidden Gem. The Mentawai Islands in Indonesia are a beautiful remote paradise that has everything. We recently spent time with the Mentawai Tribe, and wanted to see what else this island had to offer. We saw the jungles, now we were ready to see the beaches and islands.

We hired a boat out for the day and explored the beaches, lagoons and islands around Sipora, and then hired a bike out the following day to see Sipora itself. Both days were incredible as we had the most amazing and beautiful places all to ourselves. The Mentawai Islands really are a hidden gem in Indonesia, where you can explore all kinds of incredible places in private.
The Mentawai Islands are a beautiful part of Indonesia just off the coast of West Sumatra. They are full of dense jungle packed with unique and wonderful wildlife. They are also home to some of the best beaches and surfing in the world! There aren't many places where you can find both of those things...which is what makes these islands so unique and amazing.
Come with us as we explore the beautiful Mentawai Islands in Indonesia, and see exactly why you need to add this place to your travel bucket list.

There's so many hidden gems in Indo, mentawais is not the only one in that region, there's banyak islands of aceh and also telo islands of north Sumatra, all with great surfing potentials. Next, go to sumba, specifically around Tarimbang bay, beaches is superbs (there's 2 other bays in the area right next to it), surf is nice, and no foreigner made a vlog about it to this date.

​@@couplesquest_Ah,,you guys just got back from Sumba? Hope you guys went to Tarimbang area then. Other suggestions from me, go do some research about Widi islands of Halmahera, Ayau islands of Raja ampat, and Triton bay of Kaimana, truly hidden gems, and with no Vlog about them yet afaik.
