Where is the Banyuwangi cruise port?

Cruise ships berth at Tanjung Wangi, the regency's main commercial harbour, on the coast north of the town and close to the ferry port for Bali. It is a working cargo port with no cruise terminal, so passengers step ashore on the quay and leave by road.

The centre of Banyuwangi, around the Taman Blambangan park, is about 11 km away, a drive of 20 to 30 minutes, and the airport is about 29 km away. Most visitors join an organised tour, since the crater and the beaches are well outside town.

Driving to the port

The port is outside the town, so a walk into the centre is not practical. Most visitors join a ship tour or hire a car with a driver, because the Ijen Crater and the beaches are a long way from the port.

Eating in Banyuwangi

The currency is the Indonesian rupiah. Local dishes to try include nasi tempong and pecel rawon, both associated with Banyuwangi.

Destination

About Banyuwangi

Banyuwangi sits at the far eastern tip of Java, facing Bali across a narrow strait, and calls itself the Sunrise of Java.

For most visitors the main draw is the Ijen Crater, an active volcano with a turquoise crater lake, known for the blue flames that appear before dawn and for the miners who still carry sulphur out by hand.

The wider regency runs from forested mountains down to beaches on the Indian Ocean, including Red Beach, known for its sunsets, and Plengkung, a well-known surf break. Closer to town, coffee plantations on the lower slopes and the Gandrung dance offer a taste of local culture.

Climate
Tropical and warm all year, with a wetter season from about November to April and a drier one from about May to October. Long-term averages for the town weather station show December to March as the wettest time, with about 150 to 215 mm of rain a month falling on 16 to 19 days. June to October is the driest period, with about 35 to 60 mm a month and rain on 6 to 9 days. Nights stay warm all year at about 23 to 25 C. The town gets about 1,240 mm of rain a year.
