Bring your children, let them amazed by the beach and the turtles. You can join to watch how a turtle lay eggs on the beach at night and let your children escort turtle babies race to reach the sea

Ciletuh Geopark is full of amazing, huge waterfalls and stunning scenery. It's a 6 hour drive from Jakarta but you feel like you have entered an entirely different world. The air is clean, the hills are impressive and covered in dense foliage and there is good bird life throughout the region. Some of the waterfalls can be visited by just a short walk from your car while others offer 30-40 minute hikes for the more adventurous and fit. It's best to organize a local driver who knows the road conditions and where everything is to make sure you can make the most of your stay. We stayed at Ciletuh Hills which is a brand new resort right next to Curug Sodong and Cikanteh two of the finest waterfalls in the park and it has a few villa's with amazing views, comfortable beds, clean bathrooms and high quality air condition. I highly recommend it if you are looking for a base to explore the park. They also organize very reasonably priced "Safari Tours" to the main attractions in the park using high clearance vehicles that will safely get you to any of the parks many destinations. This place is one of the few remaining true paradises in West Java. If you plan a visit avoid the weekend or long weekends if possible or else you might encounter crowds escaping Jakarta. We went mid week and had most of the waterfalls completely to ourselves or with maybe one other group.

I recommend this place if you are a nature person! The longest bridge in South East Asia! The view is so amazing! The entrance fee is so affordable unless you want to trip along using your car (it will cost you around 150k rupiahs or $10). In front of the entrance, you will get welcome snack and drink. After you come across the bridge, you can go to the waterfall and the lake that have a beautiful scenery especially in evening.

Beautiful beaches, wildlife, virgin nature.
Second time I've made this trip. This time around I took my 5year old. Lovely well kept turtle sanctuary. The baby turtles are released at around 5.30pm every evening. The caretakers are knowledgeable however they only speak Indonesian so if you don't you'll have to have someone translate for you if you have questions. If you take an early morning walk (5.30am) you are often luckily enough to spot the last few turtles returning to the sea after laying their eggs. If you walk along the beach to the right for about 8km you get to a beautiful deserted beach which is calmer and swimmable. (See picture). Really recommend it just make sure to bring lots of water with you as it gets hot and there is nowhere to buy more. You can also access it through the forest -1-2 hrs walk but nowhere near nice a walk better for the homewards trail. The closest place to stay near the turtle sanctuary is Batu Besar guest house. Simple but comfortable.

It's a long ways to get to Curug Cikaso but the waterfall is stunning and the blue water is a real treat considering that many of the other waterfalls in the area are brown. There are some nice vendors selling fresh coconut and snacks and is a nice area downstream from the waterfall where you can go for a swim in the beautiful water.

Getting to Pelabuhan Ratu from Jakarta was a little bit stressful. As I was not used to driving in narrow roads, and foggy. It rained almost the whole time I was there. But still I enjoyed my stay. The beach was amazing better than Kuta Beach in Bali. The people were friendly and helpful. The beauty of the city is worth the struggle to get there.
