We’re honoured to be invited aboard Scoot’s inaugural flight to Belitung, Indonesia — just 65 minutes from Singapore — to discover what this tropical escape has to offer as a MICE destination! 🇮🇩
Unique Landscapes
Located off the east coast of Sumatra, Belitung is often referred to as the “Seychelles of Asia”. Famous for its powder-white beaches, turquoise waters, and striking granite rock formations, this laid-back tropical destination is best known for its island-hopping experiences. Don’t miss the chance to walk amongst the impressive Kelayang Cave formations and marvel at the majestic stacked stones shaped naturally over thousands of years.
Experience Local Life
Immerse yourself in the local way of life with a stroll through the downtown area and sample local favourites such as martabak. Step into a traditional kampung house to learn more about the community’s living habits and culture. Savour the flavours of Belitung with local specialties including Mee Belitung, Sup Ganga, and of course, fresh local seafood.
Rich Cultural Experiences
Discover the artistry behind the famous Batik Belitung and try your hand at batik stamping. Take home a meaningful keepsake with a kaolin clay ceramic pottery painting experience inspired by the island’s heritage.
Sustainability Efforts
Explore the sustainable side of Belitung with an eco-conscious stay at Sheraton Belitung Resort, where 80% of the structures are built using locally sourced materials. Another standout is Billiton Ecobeach Retreat, featuring 10 luxurious glamping tents constructed with locally sourced materials and operated entirely by the local community. Don’t miss the opportunity to gain insight into the region’s sustainability initiatives through an educational visit to a stingless bee farm.
