Gurun Pasir Busung & Blue Lake

#bintanguide Gurun Pasir Busung, often called the "Bintan Desert," is a surreal landscape with golden dunes that seem out of place on a tropical island. Paired with the striking Blue Lake, formed in an old quarry, the area is perfect for stunning photo ops and drone shots. The contrast between the shimmering turquoise water and sandy terrain makes this spot one of Bintan's most Instagram-worthy destinations. It’s best to visit in the morning or late afternoon to avoid the midday heat. While not a traditional tourist site, it offers a raw, almost otherworldly charm that draws both nature lovers and photography enthusiasts.
