Pulau Karaka

About Pulau Karaka

A tiny uninhabited island near Banda Neira fringed by clear, shallow reefs ideal for snorkeling straight from the beach. The absence of any infrastructure is the point — bring your own gear and lunch, and you may have the whole island to yourself.

Getting to Pulau Karaka

10–15 minute boat ride from Banda Neira. Usually included in half-day snorkeling tours alongside Pulau Syahrir. Arrange through guesthouses in Banda Neira.
