Its amazing that it seems like the chain of populated islands is well known among the locals for weekend gateway and team building but not to foreigners and expats whose ideas of Indonesia is limitied to Bali, while there are actually diversity in the 17,000 islands that makes up Indonesia. Anyway, its quite easy to go to the few tourist friendly islands via Ancol Jetty. You have to come early before 8am to get a ticket and wait at the cafe until your ferry and boat is called upon and takes the good sized ferry about an hout to reach Pari island after a stopover or two. Its best to make a prior arrangement but there are plenty of inns and homestay to see which part of the island. At just about few km length , bicycle renting is the preferable mode of transport. There are just 2 main beaches and one actually well maintained with gondola for rental to see the nearby mangrove growths. Then arrange for half a day trip to a nearby dive and sborkelling site. There are shipwreck dive site also for the more afventurous sciba divers. Food is cheap and fresh, you can even atrange for a grilled seafood of catch of the day. Spending a night or two is best there and definitely getting a welcome break from tge busy and hectic life in Jakarta.
