Pulau Beralas Pasir
A small island of white sand just off Trikora Beach, with clear water good for snorkeling, and a popular island-hopping day trip on Bintan's east coast.
Pulau Beralas Pasir lies about 2 km off Trikora Beach on Bintan's east coast. It is a small island ringed by white sand beaches, with only coconut palms and simple holiday huts. The surrounding water is clear, and the shallow reef flats are good for snorkeling among corals and tropical fish. You can also sunbathe and picnic on the sand. Visitors usually charter a boat from a jetty or resort along the Trikora coast, and the crossing takes about 15 to 20 minutes. Landing may incur a small fee (check on site). It pairs well with Trikora Beach and a floating seafood restaurant for a day trip. Note: strong waves during the northeast monsoon can suspend boat trips. The island has few facilities, so bring your own drinking water and sun protection.
