About Weekuri Lagoon
Weekuri Lagoon (Danau Weekuri) is a saltwater lagoon in Kalena Rongo Village, Kodi Utara District, Southwest Sumba Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. Separated from the Indian Ocean by a low limestone reef and boulders, it features clear turquoise brackish water fed by seawater seepage. Notable for its calm, shallow waters ideal for swimming and floating, the lagoon is surrounded by rocky outcrops and coastal vegetation and is a popular natural attraction in western Sumba.
