Batu Berlayar Island

Batu Berlayar Island is a small uninhabited granite island off the northwest coast of Belitung Island in the Bangka Belitung Islands Province. It is notable for two large granite boulders standing upright like sails, which give the island its name. Surrounded by clear turquoise water, white sand and scattered granite rocks, it is a popular stop on island-hopping tours from Tanjung Kelayang.

Visitors arrive by chartered boat and land on a small white-sand beach surrounded by granite boulders and clear shallow water. The main feature is the pair of tall, sail-like granite rocks standing side by side. The island is uninhabited and undeveloped with no permanent structures. Visitors can walk around the small island, wade and swim in calm water, snorkel near the rocks, and take photographs of the distinctive formations and surrounding sea.
