Hotels in Banten, Indonesia

Banten is a province at the western tip of Java, Indonesia, famous for its volcanic landscapes and the endangered Javan rhinos in Ujung Kulon National Park. The climate is tropical, with dry winters (around 80°F/27°C) perfect for hiking to see Krakatoa's volcanic crater or surfing at Tanjung Lesung's beaches, while the rainy season from November to March brings lush greenery and fewer tourists, ideal for exploring the 16th-century Great Mosque of Banten and local markets in Serang. During the dry months from April to October, you can snorkel in the clear waters of Pulau Peucang, while the wet season offers cheaper accommodations and a chance to see the rhinos when they come closer to park ranger stations.
