Belitung Island has become a new favourite island-themed holiday destination among tourists located south-east off the larger island of Sumatra. With its impeccable pristine beaches, blue waters and natural granite rock structures, it’s hard not to linger on its beauty. Well known after the success of the box office Indonesian movie Laskar Pelangi or Rainbow Troops, this island is now determined to reach its goal to become one of world’s best Geoparks. A Global Geopark is a UNESCO-designated area, that contains natural sites with particular geological importance and are intended to be conserved on account of its heritage.
