The harbor of Sebesi island |
Sebesi island is popular since couple years ago when some people want to go to Krakatau volcano, they should stop and sleep in this island.

Sebesi Island is located in the Sunda Strait which is located
in South Lampung regency. This island is close to Sebuku island and at the east of the island there is Legundi serdang. At the middle of the island, we can see a mount which is called Sebesi mount. Its quiet high because the top of the mount is usually covered by the clouds. If you are interested in climbing, you can try to climb this mount when you are in Sebesi island. It is predicted that Sebesi mount was very high but because of the umpact Krakatoa eruption, it becomes lower like now.
