Bintan Mini Desert Prepare to be amazed by the mysterious sand dunes of Gurun Pasir Busung in Bintan. Once a mining site, this area was abandoned, but today it mirrors the majestic beauty of the Arabian desert. Though it’s a bit off the beaten path from the city and resort areas, the stunning white sand hills against the backdrop of a bright blue sky and fluffy clouds make it a favorite spot for photographers and Instagrammers. The breathtaking scenery is only the beginning of what this place has to offer. Bintan Blue Lake Just beside the white sands lies a mesmerizing crystal-clear blue lake. Hard to believe this serene oasis once started as a large crater from an old mining site, but over time, rainwater filled the basin, creating a "post-apocalyptic oasis" in the heart of the desert. Capture a picture with both the desert and lake as your backdrop, and you’ll have an Instagram-worthy shot that’s sure to earn plenty of likes.

Bintan Sand Dunes & Blue Lake 🏜️

If you're heading to Bintan and are on the hunt for that picture-perfect ig photo, the Blue Lake and Sand Dunes are absolute must-see attractions! Many photo opportunities there 📸 Can’t believe the sand dunes were man made! It is about 30minutes ride away from my hotel which is located at Lagoi. I think it will be about an hour if you are coming from the ferry terminal! Some tips for you: -Go at 445pm to catch the sunset and it won’t be so hot as well! The golden hour is so pretty! -Bring cash in case you want to take pic with the eagle which is about SGD5 or get some snacks/drinks -There are also ATV in which you can take play as well! #timetotravel #weekendgetaways #bintan #TravelGuide

Golden Sands & Azure Dreams: A Visit to Bintan Desert and Blue Lake

Just nearby, the Blue Lake dazzled with its unbelievably vibrant turquoise water—calm, clear, and stunning against the sandy backdrop. The contrast between the arid dunes and the cool, serene lake was simply mesmerizing. It’s a short visit, but incredibly memorable. A must-see spot if you're exploring the unique landscapes of Bintan!

Bintan blues hit different 💙✨

Blue skies, crystal-clear waters, and an unforgettable stop at Bintan’s Blue Lake! This is a must-visit if you’re in Bintan – the turquoise waters are unreal! Pro tip: Plan ahead and book activity packages online before your trip – prices on-site can be a little higher. Also, aim to visit in the morning or early afternoon for the best lighting (and fewer crowds!). Wear comfy shoes too, as there’s a bit of walking, but the views are so worth it! If you’re heading to Bintan, don’t miss this spot. The pictures don’t do it justice! #BintanAdventures #BlueLake #TravelTips
