Bukit Jaddih
White hills and blue-green pools left by limestone quarrying on Madura Island, known as Madura's 'Santorini' among photo enthusiasts.
Bukit Jaddih is located in Bangkalan Regency on Madura Island. It is a limestone quarry still in operation, and years of cutting have created white stepped cliffs, caves, and small blue-green lakes formed by water collecting in the pits. The unique scenery has made it a popular photo spot, and there is also a small swimming pool. It is about 45 minutes' drive from Surabaya via the Suramadu Bridge, and admission and parking fees are low. The white rock walls reflect strong light at midday, so visit in the morning or evening, and bring sunglasses and sunscreen. Do not approach the quarry areas still in operation.
