The next interesting tourist spot on Bintan Island is Blue Lake. Before becoming a popular tourist attraction, Blue Lake was actually a sand mining site on Bintan Island. However, due to mining, this place slowly formed a lake with very clear water.
Interestingly, this Blue Lake tour has a panoramic view of blue water and soothing natural scenery. The lake is surrounded by shady trees so you can sit back and relax while feeling the breeze. So it is very suitable to be used as a place of healing.
You can make this destination as an alternative choice if you are bored with beach views.
