Island hopping in Jakarta
Surprisingly, the Thousand Islands are considered part of Greater Jakarta, which means you won't have to travel far to find some beach time in the city. Just a few hours outside of the city, you'll find yourself on the Thousands, also known as Pulau Seribu in Indonesian, where you'll find beautiful beaches, coves, and inlets.
The best way to see the islands is to take a boat tour, which will allow you to jump from one island to the next while taking in all of the best sites. If you're searching for a little more luxury, Pulau Macan has an exclusive resort where you can enjoy great cuisine and delectable beverages while watching the sunset.

Several is
Several islands in the Thousand Islands will certainly impress you. Many of them have beautiful scenery (especially the underwater scenery) and it is just 1-3 hours away from Jakarta.
Macan Island is just 90 minutes away by speedboat from Marina harbor in Taman Impian Jaya Ancol. Tiger Islands Village & Eco Resort manages Macan Island.
Besides managing a beautiful resort, Tiger Island Village & Eco Resort also try to introduce several environmentally friendly solutions for their guests. They promote sustainable energy, environmental stewardship, organic gardening, rainwater harvesting, composting, waste management and much more including community development.
From relaxing, snorkeling, canoeing, watching the sunset, to having a massage session there are so many activities you can do on Macan Island. One thing that quite surprised me was the underwater view. The coral reefs around Macan Island are in a good condition and the management regularly undertakes coral planting around the island.

I will be
I will be honest this place is beautiful but not worth a trip just to go here. If you’re going to be in the area for diving or other things, then worth it. Other than that, it looks exactly like the pictures on the Internet save yourself the trouble and then annoyance of so many people. The tour boats seem in a hurry and they want to get you to the next destination and there’s very little time to actually enjoy what you’re doing. I traveled from Java to go there, since people said it was so amazing. We must remember it depends to each their own what’s amazing.
