While visiting Ambon, Moluccas, dont ever forget to Visit Natsepa beach. This beautiful beach is located in the border area of Ambon and Maluku Tengah county to the norther side of Ambon. You can taste some tasty culinary of Natsepa, like Rujak Natsepa.

If you're lucky enough to visit the beach in a good weather, you can see the crystal clear water . There's a deck that mostly use as a jumping board for the tourist. It is about 45-60 minutes from the main heart of ambon city and it is definitely worth to visit. There are attractions like banana boat, and a small paddle boat you can rent.

A friend said, you re not officially come to Ambon until you visit Natsepa.
Come in weekends, the beach will full of people with frienda or families. Feel the warmth of Ambon people there.
There are banana boats and traditional boats you can rent to enjoy the beach.
Ambon has the most beautiful Beaches in Indonesia. Natsepa is one of them.
Dont forget to taste traditional food there, Ambonese Rujak, its like fruit salad with peanuts and palm sugar sauce, you can add extra chili to have a better taste.

Merah Putih bridge is a cable stayed bridge located in Ambon city, Maluku, Indonesia. The bridge spans over Ambon Bay in Ambon Island, connecting Rumah Tiga village in Sirimau sub-district on the north side, with Hative Kecil village in Teluk Ambon sub-district on the south side. With 1,140 m long this bridge is the longest bridge in the eastern region of Indonesia; it is the landmark of the city.

The bridge is just recently finished early this year and really really connect the city centre to airport. It cuts the travel time from minimum 1 hours by half.
Nothing special on the construction but still we have a good view when we are on the bridge looking at the beautiful Ambon bay

Its not hard to find this mosque, its located in central of Ambon city. One of the symbol that ambon were a plural city. Make sure to visit it.
6. Sacred Eels of Waai

One of the famous sites in Ambon, which has been totally ruined by the government. The pool lacks all authenticity because of the concrete walls and Seating, which are also poorly maintained. The eels itself are a great sight. Other less known villages also have sacret eels and provide a more satisfying experience. I would recommend a visit to the village of Larike instead.

Osi island was really have beautiful landscape even in the afternoon and sunset! I captured several photos and i amazed what beautiful it is!
The island still undeveloped well but there were have mosque, elementary school and small healthcare unit.
Now osi island have fresh water as a result from the processing of sea water.
Sea water was very clear.
You can see the coral and fish under the water.
There were several cottage and the price is cheap. I pay Rp.150.000 for one room/night. The room can accomodate until 4person hehehhe
Don't worry about food, there was a house that provide food like grilled/fried fish, squid and lobster. You can order what you want to eat.
8. Fort Amsterdam

Reviewed By Anneila F
I think this is the best location for Dutch colony to build a fortress. It's facing the sea. Very easy for the military to see someone who wanted to attack. Unfortunately, now the building has nothing to see but the remains. Inside the fortress is empty. It will be better if (maybe) they have statue or make a history timeline about the fortress.
It should repaint to be more attractive.
9. Namalatu Beach

It's a small beach with an entrance fee of 8000 rupiah to get in. The beach is small and at time of writing 1/1/2015, small families had gathered there. Accessed via local buses or private car. The water is warm and almost lagoon like; very calm and clear. Very pleasant for a nice swim and snorkel. There are remnants of a small abandoned pool and a kitchen/toilet facilities. There are separate showers nearby. Bring plenty of your own soap!
