Samosir Island, Indonesia

Explore Lake Toba by boat

boating nature

Hidden in the highlands and jagged peaks of Northern Sumatra, Lake Toba is one of the most popular destinations in Medan with many unique travel experiences. Considering its size as the largest lake in Indonesia and the largest volcanic lake in the world, it is actually more like a sea than a lake. For nature lovers and adventure seekers alike, taking a boat trip is a great way to travel around this lake. Cruising over the calm blue waters, you will have a chance to immerse in the magnificence of the lake, pass through a series of towering dramatic cliffs interspersed with forested slopes, cultivated land and small traditional villages. If you have more time, it is an excellent idea to explore the Samosir Island settled in the middle of the lake.
