Baluran national park harbors an amazingly diverse range ecosystem in a 25sq km, chunk of northeastern of java. extensive grass land cover park of the peak, providing rich grassing for Javanese wild oxen (banteng) kijang and water buffalos and making it ideal terrain for Africa-style safari excursion in 4WDs. You should see a wide range of wild life here
Large section of this prime savannah were taken over by acacia thorn scrub (which was introduce as a fire break) but park rangers are steadily clearing this prickly invader from baluran and grasslands are reclaiming lost ground
You can do safari trip or snorkeling on offshore coral reef

Start from hotel at 07:30. we drive straight by private car to Baluran it takes one hour to get ticket post. Arriving in ticket post we directly welcomed by many monkeys, there was big monkey and small monkey and the monkey little bit dangerous because they wanted to attract us,,,, maybe the monkeys are still hungry because this is still in morning.
