Small port city with solid halal infrastructure and friendly Muslim atmosphere, but limited tourist amenities and modest prayer facilities.
Money-saving tips
Book 3-star hotels in city center (Jalan Ahmad Yani) for good access to markets and transport.
Eat at halal-certified warungs and casual restaurants; a good meal runs $4–7.
Hire a driver (via Grab or ask your hotel) for day trips to Way Kambas or Krakatau tours (~$40–60/day).
