Among thousands of islands of Indonesian archipelago you can find a small piece of tropical paradise called Rote Island. A remote island in the middle of the Indian ocean, an authentic gem, still secretive and a long way from mass tourism with untouched nature.
Rote Island has an extraordinary natural environment with turquoise waters, secluded beaches, world class surf spots, caved rock formations, unhabituated little islands, intact coral reefs, inland lakes, savanna landscapes and beautiful rainforests.
It is much more than just another typical beach destination.
The dry season starts in April and ends in November with clear skies and the trade winds coming from the south-east with cooler temperatures. The wet season is more concentrated from December till March with higher temperatures and tropical rain storms. In between the seasons there are variable light winds and pleasant conditions.
The mosquitoes are rare, in Pachamama we’ve never seen one.
Rotenese people are very welcoming and friendly. They are also quiet and respectful. So you will never have the perception to feel unsafe on their beautiful island.
Because of this Rote is also fitted for solitary woman travelers.
The local community is also very religious, Christianism is the main cult, and the churches are the center of their entire lives.
Rote offers an astonishing tropical gateway, which unlike many other destinations across Indonesia, is still remote and unexplored.
Rote Island is a true authentic little piece of paradise, near Bali and Lombok, ready to be discovered.
