In today's video, I go on an epic 3-week expedition to Maratua Island, Borneo's most exotic island in East Kalimantan. There I uncover the wonders of this exotic paradise. From thrilling encounters with Whale sharks and Sea turtles to discovering hidden gems, like free diving in caves filled with crystal blue water, this video is adventure packed!

The Derawan Islands has a lot to offer! Besides Maratua, I visit the nearby Sangalaki and their famous turtle sanctuary, along with Kakaban islands, with it's massive secluded lake filled with stingless jellyfish.

Witnessing the island's conservation efforts, I was touched by the organisation 'Yayasan Kalasahan' who teaches local kids English right on the beach. Together with my sponsor, Fuchs Indonesia, we gave them a memory they won't forget anytime soon.

Venturing off the beaten path, we discover secluded beaches, secret coves, and mystical caves, each revealing the incredibly beauty of this paradise Island.

And of course, we explore some of the world-famous dive sites that have made Maratua a diver's paradise. Get ready for breathtaking underwater vistas and encounters with some of it's incredible marine life.

I will also show you the 3 best places to stay on the island, as I try them all.

Tropical paradise, famous dives sites and very few tourists, what's not to like?
Don't miss out on this unforgettable adventure!
