What to Do in Rote Island

There are many things to do around Loedi Bungalows — both on land and in the ocean.
You can explore empty beaches, snorkel in coral gardens, surf world-class waves, kite surf from April to September, or simply relax in nature.

We’re happy to help you organize any activity or trip so you can discover the most beautiful and authentic parts of Rote Island at your own pace.

🏄‍♂️ Surfing Around Loedi Bungalows

Rote Island offers several amazing surf spots, including the world-famous T-Land and many other waves for every level.

The Bo’a surf spot, only 2 km from Loedi Bungalows, is the best right-hand wave on the island.
Nemberala (T-Land), located a few kilometers away, delivers long and consistent rides that attract surfers from around the world.

From October to April, the Loedi wave, right in front of our beach, works on big swells — perfect for surfing.

Thanks to its central location, Loedi Bungalows lets you surf almost every day and enjoy peaceful evenings in an authentic natural setting.

🪁 Kitesurfing at Loedi Beach

Located directly on Loedi Beach, also called Kite Beach, our bungalows offer immediate access to the water. From April to October, steady trade winds sweep across the bay and create ideal conditions for kitesurfing right in front of the resort.

Although we do not rent gear or provide lessons, intermediate or experienced riders are encouraged to bring their own equipment. Moreover, the wide and uncrowded lagoon makes it easy to launch and ride safely.

Afterward, unwind on the sand and watch the colorful kites drift across the sunset sky — a perfect way to end the day.

🤿 Snorkeling at Loedi Beach

Loedi Beach ranks among the best snorkeling spots on Rote Island. Just in front of the bungalows, two natural channels host abundant marine life and vibrant coral gardens ready to explore.

In addition, we provide snorkeling gear for our guests, allowing you to discover the reef at any time. When conditions permit, we can also arrange snorkeling trips to nearby islands or the stunning mangrove lake, Telaga Nirwana.

Whether you are a beginner or an experienced snorkeler, the calm and crystal-clear waters of Loedi ensure an unforgettable underwater experience.

🤿 Diving Around Rote Island

There is one dive center on Rote Island that offers excursions for both certified divers and beginners. You can join a half-day diving trip with two dives at one of several scenic sites surrounding the island.

Each excursion is led by a certified instructor and includes all diving equipment, drinks, and snacks. Afterward, you can return to the resort to rest and enjoy Rote’s peaceful atmosphere.

Furthermore, diving here reveals the island’s rich underwater world — from colorful coral gardens to thriving marine life. It’s an experience that combines adventure with complete tranquility.

💦 Waterfalls and Natural Pools

Rote Island features several beautiful cascading waterfalls where visitors can swim and relax beneath the trees. In addition, the island is dotted with natural freshwater pools — called mata air by locals — offering crystal-clear water ideal for a refreshing dip.

At Loedi Bungalows, we can arrange trips to these peaceful spots. This way, you can spend the day immersed in nature and discover another side of Rote’s untouched beauty.

🚤 Island Tours and Hidden Gems

Discover the hidden side of Rote Island with our customized tours. We can organize day trips to explore secluded beaches, cross peaceful rice fields, and admire inland landscapes far from the crowds.

In addition, guests can enjoy a boat excursion through the “Thousand Islands” area, known locally as Mulut Seribu. This maze of small islands, turquoise lagoons, and mangrove channels offers perfect opportunities for photography and quiet exploration.

Moreover, these tours are ideal for travelers who value nature, freedom, and authentic experiences off the beaten path.
