PULAU WEH > WHAT PEOPLE SAY


How did other travellers experience Pulau Weh? Read how they expressed it in these direct quotes.

Carmillo (18 yo) from Austria:
Better than expected. People actually living here - therefore real price shops. Basic living. Coral. Sharks. If full of tourists? Then like what? needs development of water supply/sanitation.

Simon (27) from England:
3 dives and seen everything - sharks, (well I missed them but everyone else saw them and said I must be blind??) turtles, octopus, manta rays, eagle rays, massive groupers, huge schools of barracuda. Excellent diving with such amazing variety. Great Chai and poached egg breakfasts at Mama's. I donated my Marmite.

Betti (27) from Munic, Germany:
Pulau Weh is beautiful with a good atmosphere. Lifestyle is easy and close to the locals. Great snorkeling, many fish. O yeah, Mama - thanks for the Betti Sandwiches!

Jaap (37) from Holland, a visiting dive instructor:
After 2-3 weeks in Gapang he says: "I have traveled around a lot, but Pulau Weh has touched me. The beauty, the green nature, the people, and for sure the diving."

Petra (31) from Germany a dive instructor on her second visit to Pulau Weh:
"Visibility and variety can be compared to Sibadan, Borneo. I like it better here. The clear blue water is amazing and the currents a challenge to me. I have had my best dives ever in Pulau Weh."

Claus (40) from Germany:
"Nice to spend time with a big family in the public next to the well. Once they get started in the morning you get a pretty good breakfast and the BBQ dinner is exquisite."

Lenka Mikleticova (29) from Czech Republic:
"One of the best experiences in my life. After one day snorkeling I decided to try diving. Beautiful! Hopefully I do more dives here in Pulau Weh."

Steven Shannon from Texas wrote:
"I did 6 dives, every one of them blew me away. If there were any problem it is that there is so much to see, it is a sensory overload and maybe too much for my brain to handle. The staff were all great and so was the overall experience."

Pablo Villanueva from Spain wrote:
"Really great dive sites! I had the best diving in Southeast Asia so far. Friendly and professional staff and relaxed island to be in."

Jose "Pepe" Duben from Czech Republic:
I decided to join an open water dive course after I saw how beautiful it is here under water. It was a great experience to dive in this place and I can recommend everybody to do the same. Nice dives with nice people.

Hannah Derwent, 30, Australia:
"Pulau Weh is Paradise". We came as a family and stayed at Sumur Tiga, which was a real treat, a nice relaxing holiday for Mum and good food.

James and Travis, 22 Ohio, USA:
Pulau Weh - Island Paradise, stunning island with bungalows directly on the sea, here we went around the island on a boat and went to an awesome waterfall. Have a Hydro-massage by just standing under the waterfall- AWESOME- better than Thailand. Do yourself a favour and Check Out Sumatra!!!
