I went to Karimunjawa after this place appeared in my dreams few times, and I'm glad that I visited this place...it's beautiful!

I've been to Phuket and Bali, and I have to say that Karimunjawa can compare to the best beaches on those 2 islands. The sands are silky white, the ocean has gradation colors (green-turquoise-deep blue), the marine life is awesome.
