About The Madura (Strait)

If you came to Indonesia, make use of visited to the Madura Island. An island that was located in west the Javanese Island part. This island was occupied by one of the ethnic groups in Indonesia that is the Madura ethnic group. On the side east this island was also gotten dozens of small islands that became his group.

There, tour also was available, one of them that is “Unflagging Fire”, was located in the Pamekasan City. A fire that it seems have not been out till now, that emerged pure from bowels of the earths. Sport of the community's favourite there was Karapan Sapi (mean: the bull race), that afterwards to symbol the Madura ethnic group. Be not wrong, the bull race statue was shown at the front of the port kamal, Madura.

How did you head this island? Was easy. From the Surabaya Airport, you are towards Perak Port for then go aboard sea pass Madura Strait. The strait that separated the Javanese Island from the Madura Island.

The Madura Strait (possibly) was different from the other strait, like the Sunda Strait or the Balinese Strait that his wave was big enough, and other big straits in the Indonesian crack that the wave of his sea was swift.

But, the wave of sea in Madura Strait was relatively small, so as when you were on the ship as if not was felt, like you travelled in the mainland. When on your ship the ray enjoyed beauties around it.

You could see the Madura Island from the long distance, you could see Bridge of Suramadu (is bridge that connected the two islands (Java and Madura Island), that still in the process of the resolution) and when the ship has moved to the middle of sea, you could turn behind to be able to see the side of the Surabaya City. The trip tonight was again pleasanter.

Came soon to Madura Island and enjoy crossing the Madura Strait, because next year the trip flow via the ship will not be as busy as is now the case. Because next year, Suramadu Bridge was estimated has operated. So, the mobility flow of humankind will from the two islands be broken the two routes.

We were waiting for you in the Madura Strait!!!
