[2025 Bintan Attraction] Travel Guide for Bintan Desert (Updated Apr)

Bintan Mini Desert Prepare to be amazed by the mysterious sand dunes of Gurun Pasir Busung in Bintan. Once a mining site, this area was abandoned, but today it mirrors the majestic beauty of the Arabian desert. Though it’s a bit off the beaten path from the city and resort areas, the stunning white sand hills against the backdrop of a bright blue sky and fluffy clouds make it a favorite spot for photographers and Instagrammers. The breathtaking scenery is only the beginning of what this place has to offer. Bintan Blue Lake Just beside the white sands lies a mesmerizing crystal-clear blue lake. Hard to believe this serene oasis once started as a large crater from an old mining site, but over time, rainwater filled the basin, creating a "post-apocalyptic oasis" in the heart of the desert. Capture a picture with both the desert and lake as your backdrop, and you’ll have an Instagram-worthy shot that’s sure to earn plenty of likes.
