water and bright sunshine are perfect for swimming and sunbathing. The pine trees can protect you from the direct sun rays. Kata beach is about 2 km south of Pariaman.

Four islands make up the Mentawai cluster off the West Sumatra coast: Siberut, Sipora, Pagai Utara and Pagai

is well known for its untouched forests, a part of a nature reserve inhabited by a number of animal species
not found anywhere else, among them some rare monkey species. Beautiful coral reefs are found offshore.
