Weh island, for example,
is a beautiful island located at the north western
tip of Sumatra. The great attraction of this small
island is its scenic beauty. Weh's rugged terrain,
rocky caves, harbour views, hillside lookouts,
marvellous beaches, and sleepy traditional villages
all attest to these.
The island of Weh is surrounded by other smaller
islands including Klah,
Rubiah, Seulako,
and Rondo. Together,
all these islands cover an area of 154 square
kilometers with the population concentrated on
the main island of Weh.
Another beautiful island
is Siberut,
a small island west of Sumatra. Rainforest covers
most of the island, and the people who live in
it are the Mentawai. Here time stopped at the
Neolithic stage!
