The Republic of Indonesia is an island nation and comprises more than 17,500 different individual islands, which makes it the biggest archipelagic state in existence. Straddling the equator and boasting an exceptional tropical climate, Indonesia's largest islands include Java (home of the spectacular Prambanan temples), Kalimantan, New Guinea, Sulawesi and Sumatra.

Indonesia shares a number of land borders, with Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam all being to the north, and even Australia to the south, across a narrow stretch of water. Jakarta is the proud Indonesian capital and resides on the island of Java, with other important cities including those of Bandung (West Java), Medan (North Sumatra), Semarang (Central Java) and Surabaya (East Java).

There is so much to pack into a trip to Indonesia and many holidaymakers come to the islands to take full advantage of the beautiful beaches and superb marine life, with scores of divers and snorkellers enjoying unforgettable underwater adventures. The dense coral gardens surrounding Maluku's Banda Islands are exceptional, while the orangutans at Sumatra's Bukit Lawang and Kalimantan's Kutai National Park also come highly recommended.
