Jalak Boat
We took a road trip in convoy. Five car loads left Jakarta on a long day trip to see the famous Krakatoa. Much of the road to Caritas beach on the west coast was seriously pot-holed. I thought the little red car (mine) was going to fall into some of them. At the busy beach we hired boats with two engines, which is most important in case one breaks down. The almost three hour dash across the Sunda Strait is crazy choppy. Then Krakatoa comes into view with smoke belching out. We landed on the island and climbed to the ridge over hot ash and rocks to see great views up to the caldera and out over the islands. A nice closing to the adventurous day was snorkeling with colourful fish amongst black sand and white coral. This is an extraordinary trip!! P.S. It's actually son of Kratatoa as the original volcano completely exploded in 1883 #roadtrip
