Nestled in the western part of Sumba, Indonesia, Waikuri Lagoon, also known as Weekuri Lake, is a natural wonder characterized by its crystal-clear, shallow waters. Surrounded by rugged rocks and lush tropical greenery, the lagoon’s sparkling, gin-clear waters invite visitors to swim and explore. At the lagoon’s western edge, the Indian Ocean crashes against low cliffs, creating a dynamic interplay between the saltwater and the fresh water from hidden springs. Today, visitors can experience the serene beauty of the lagoon, enjoying the unique blend of salt and fresh water and the tranquil, picturesque setting.
