Pantai Kalampunian
You'll stand at the geographic tip of the world's third-largest island, where two seas converge in turquoise ribbons. The powdery shore stretches beneath wind-sculpted trees, and late afternoon light turns the water into hammered bronze. Pack closed-toe shoes for the short walk over roots and coral fragments.
