Welcome to Jaco Island

| Rent a Boat |
Featuring the beauty of the island of white sand and beautiful beaches with clear sea water clarity. Really very nice to surround the island by renting a motor boat. motor boat rental costs around 20 dollars per person to be around the island. if we go down to the island will be charged an additional 5 dollars per person and we will be picked up again when we're done playing on the island.
One of the top destinations in East Timor has got to be Jaco Island just off the east end of Timor. It is about an 8 hour drive from Dili. A trail bike or 4×4 would be the best transport out there. A regular car could make it up to Tutuala but you would have to leave it in town and walk the rest of the way because the trail really deteriorates the closer you get.
It is even a challenge for 4×4′s.
Local transport could be taken to Tutuala but there are few vehicles going that way and the trip would only be for people with a lot of patience and endurance.
Then you would have to walk the last 8 km or so to the beach.
This is the only place where I’ve seen snorkelers spear tunas. Before the rains come the water is clear and the visibility is almost unlimited.
There are clean wide stretches of white sand and plenty of shade trees further inland.
It is good in a way that Jaco is not that easy to get to or it could be over run with tourists and it might some of the magic of this place.
There are no facilities there but some fishermen hang out there selling fish and coconuts and they don’t mind having visitors.
Some people bring tents and others sleep in their vehicles.Another option is to sleep in the undercuts that are in the rock walls along the beach.
The fishermen have some bamboo benches that they will let you use, but it is a good idea to help them out a little and buy some fish and coconuts or whatever to help out their economy a bit.

You can spend the time in bush walking, swimming and snorkeling in the pristine azure waters. The island covers an area of about 10 square km and is uninhabited.
It is considered holy by the indigenous population, so setting foot on the island is forbidden. There are no accommodations but campers and hikers frequent the park.
