About Sumba Island

Sumba is one of Indonesia's best-kept secrets — a rugged island of rolling hills, dramatic coastlines, and a living culture that has endured for centuries.

A Land of Tradition

Unlike much of Indonesia, Sumba has preserved its megalithic traditions. The island is dotted with ancestral villages featuring towering thatched-roof houses and massive stone tombs. The Pasola festival, a ritual jousting competition on horseback, draws visitors from around the world.

Pristine Nature

From the turquoise waters of Weekuri Lagoon to the dramatic cliffs of Tanggedu Waterfall, Sumba offers landscapes found nowhere else. Nihiwatu Beach is consistently rated among the world's best beaches.
