The trekking will take about ยฑ2 hours until the blue fire point, it depends on your pace and condition. At least you should be at the peak of Ijen Crater at 4.15 AM if you donโ€™t want to miss the blue fire.ย  The blue fire always appears every night and it will be gone when the sun rises at 5.20 AM. After enjoying the blue fire, you should go back to the top of Ijen Crater, from the top you will see the view of the turquoise lake. It will be nice when the sun shines onto the lake. Ijen crater has the biggest sulfuric lake in Indonesia, and itโ€™s one of the biggest sulfuric lakes in the world with the acidity below 0. The acidity of the lake is around 0,5 ph. Besides the amazing view of Ijen Crater, you will see some sulfur miners/workers who work hard to carry more than 80kg of sulfur blocks on their shoulders, and they only earn USD 8 per day. It really depends on how many kgs of sulfur they can carry. Sulfur mining in Ijen Crater is very old. They start to do mining from 1950. Itโ€™s a kind of unstoppable sulfur mining. Make sure you share something with them after taking a photo such as candy or food that you have in your bag.

After enjoying the enchanting scenery at Crater of Ijen Crater then we will go down to the parking area where our car is waiting for escorting you to our next destination that is Sukamade Turtle Beach and we have to drive for ยฑ 5 hours. After 3 hours of driving, you will reach Sarongan village where you can have your lunch at the local restaurant. When you have taken lunch, you will continue your trip to Sukamade Turtle Beach for about 2 hours more but an hour from the lunch place we will stop at Rajegwesi beach where you can see the portrait of local fisherman here and we can visit beautiful hidden gem, we named it Teluk Ijo, itโ€™s small beach with white sand and green crystal water. We can go there by boat to make it faster but when the weather is not possible to take a boat we can walk for about 30 minutes.

The rangers of turtle foundation and natural resources conservation will give a short briefing about the night tour to see the turtle, then they will take you to the shore of Sukamade beach to see the turtle is laying the eggs. The rangers will give you very good guidance about what should you do and what you shouldnโ€™t do when you are there. The Sukamade turtle beach is kind of monitoring an extinct animal from their extinction, we monitor how many turtles have landed on the beach and how many eggs that we can collect from them. When they are laying the eggs, there is some predator watches the egg. Thatโ€™s why we have to collect them from the wildlife then move the eggs into the artificial sand in the rangersโ€™ office until the eggs hatched.ย  The tour will be finished until 11.00 PM.
