A pale strip of sand breaks the sea like a breath—White Sand Island unfurls just off Bintan, where the water turns from turquoise to cobalt and the reef dares you to look closer. You step from the jetty at Trikora with the sea breeze at your back, guides calling instructions as kayaks and a shallow-hulled boat cut toward coral heads that crown the shallows.
