Busy airport, always full of foreigner going to raja Ampat. Quite small airport, only three departure gate and two baggage conveyor. The design is not user friendly, bit confusing where to go, waiting room concourse area to much glare from the sun rays, very uncomfortable for the visitor. The toilet facility shall be improved the cleaning quality and frequency. The government of West Papua Province should start thinking to expanding the size of the airport and it's facilities.

A surprisingly modern small airport for Sarong. Very easy to check in. Has a few coffee shops and gift shops in the departure area Loads of porters and taxis at the departure areas after you arrive

Small airport as the gateway for your journey to Raja Ampat. Effective and clean - There are some souvenir shops (but limited offers) as well bakery and coffee shop. In the airport you can't get lost - signs, facilities and announcements are clear. WIFI for free is available.

the airport is clean and well maintained. friendly customer service.

The 'aquariums' they have in the waiting areas at the gates are absolutely brutal. I have no idea what they do to the poor fish but most of them are severely suffering. The float at the surface with they're bellies up struggling to survive or are very bloated. If you want people to come to your country to enjoy the fish life in the ocean please don't give them the impression that you don't care about animals at all. Then please just kill them and put plants there instead. It made me leave this place very disappointed and sad.

It is the best airport in Papua. Good facilities and tenants, good lighting and air conditioning, not too big but meet the needs, clean, and comfort.

The airport is much much better than years back.. Or even when the airport was in Jefman.. Keep developing as more and more expat is visiting Sorong..

In the airport there AC was not working bathroom were so dirty and smelly also people's smoke and I could smell smoke in some cafe...And be care full with your stuff stay alret. I never faced any mosquito in any airport of the there was..

Better than most smaller airports I've been too. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Improved new DEO-Airport. Improved basic services, better luggage handling & other public facilities adding more comfortable spaces to both departure & arriving passengers, and transitting as well. It's just, no improvement on airport-taxi service, still poor..

Only open on a Sunday. Thought the temple would have daily service. Had to pay, great view, massive gong. Payment was to access the perimeter of the temple.

Great view to see Sorong city from the hill. Quiet place to meditate, windy and cool, great escapefrom hot Sorong weather

We can see the view of Sorong from here, not a lot to see other than that. The place is a little bit hidden.

Located up in the hill, this vihara has a great view of Sorong. There is a buddha statue in a color of gold, a pagoda, and to visit you must pay entrance fee of around IDR 10,000. The monastery guard sells souvenirs made of pretty gemstones at a small kiosk where we pay the entrance fee.

Beautiful, also has a great view over the bay.

Nice view from the top 😎

Nice but not open as i was there

It's not the best beach I ever visit, but in Sorong City, this is the best spot to relax. Not to far from Sorong, just about 20 minutes driving. There are many beaches with different names there and every beach are managed by locals. The entrance ticket are various, start from IDR 25K - 50K/person. I don't recommended for snorkeling at this beach, the underwater view not really worth and the sea wave is strong enough. I suggest you to enjoy the sunset here, is really peacefull. Unfortunately, many beaches is so dirty, plastic trash is everywhere and pollute the ocean.

(Translated by Google) The beach is still really cool, but the cleanliness is not maintained, it's free if you want to play here😁 it's good to just unwind... look at the sea view😍 (Original) Pantai yang masih sejuk banget yah, tapi kebersihannya kurang terjaga,maklum gratis klo mau main kesini tuh😁 enaklah buat sekedar melepas penat ..lihat pemandangan laut😍

(Translated by Google) Tanjung Kasuari is very beautiful and comfortable for relaxing, this beach for a family holiday is very suitable for unwinding during a week of work and here the 5th Papua noken scooter event was held, hopefully the beach remains clean and well maintained (Original) Tanjung kasuari sangat indah dan nyaman untuk bersantai, pantai ini untuk liburan keluarga sangat cocok untuk melepas lelah saat, seminggu bekerja dan di sini pernah diadakan even noken scooter papua yang ke 5,semoga pantai tetap bersih dan terawat

(Translated by Google) The beach is not clean, there is still rubbish... The money coming in is sometimes erratic and there are no entry tickets... (Original) Pantainya tidak bersih, masih ada sampah... Uang masuk kadang tidak menentu dan tidak ada karcis masuknya....

Interesting place to spend an hour or so in Sorong. Many years past its former glory, but although it felt abandoned when we were there (we had the park to ourselves) we still got to explore the jungle on reasonably good and clear paths.

Abandoned park. I walked along the main road for 3 hours only to realise that the trails were to the right after the abandoned car park. There was absolutely no one to help. On the flip side, it's a beautiful nature reserve for peaceful walks and bird watching. Oh, and don't bother walking up to the watch tower, it's locked.

Entrance price rp100.000 during the week and rp150.000 the weekend.

Went December 2022. It was 'open' but nothing happening. Looks like they are doing some renovation post Covid. Continue straight on entrance road, will see signs on right to camping area. There also some Interpretive signs for trees there. Aviary with a few bedraggled Cockatiels and parrots. Saw no birds in the wild, heard a few calls. Several species of butterflies along the paths. If you need some nature in Sorong, this is 9 Km from Swiss Belhotel. 2 hour trip private car/driver cost 200K I. Rupiah, $12.80 USD

It is so sad, such potential heaven is abandoned

Nice...need to touch bit tidy

The garden still looks natural and the nuance is still beautiful

Came here for birding. Found a pretty good number of Scrub Honeyeaters. Failed to get a good view of Little Kingfisher but I know they are around. You probably will not find Blue-and-black Kingfisher here as it was too crowded with tourists when I visited it, but it still offers some nice look into the mangrove to find some other species of birds

4 stars for the idea of a mangrove swamp attraction. The boardwalks are pretty well maintained. Unfortunately there's not a lot to see. Also plenty of rubbish washed down which makes you worry about the health of these ecosystems. Spent some time looking at soldier crabs 🦀 and mud skippers.

lovely place, especially for a morning run. it's refreshing in the eyes of the green. hopefully this place keeps a notice of facilities and services that visitors are concerned 💛✌️

Very impressing.

Amazing

Very refreshing n cozy place

Good for rest

Menu is entirely in Indonesian so it's hard to order and menu does not have any photos. So we ended up ordering to soup noodles. Taste is ok. Broccoli in beef n broccoli was overcooked.

Very nice place to eat local Indonesian and Chinese influenced food. The owner is very friendly and helped us with the menu that's we couldn't read because it wasn't in English. The food itself was delicious and the place was nice and cool and had a nice atmosphere. Definitely recommend!

Good authentic Chinese restaurant. Delicious. Old school Chinese cooking. Maybe one of the best Chinese restaurant in Sorong. Service and cleanliness can be better.

The food was great and the staff was very friendly. Very reasonably priced. The menu is not available in english but one of the staff had many pictures of the different meals on his phone and we chose our dinner that way. Fun adventure on a layover stay in Sorong.

The fried rice is so yummy. Best restaurant in Sorong! 👍

Their location was little bit hidden from main road, it’s behind the mariat hotel and look like closed store. But it’s the way it look, just open the door and come in! They specialized in chinese food and the option for food was a lot, dining area also equipped with A/C. Food taste was really tasty, I’ve tried the fried shrimp (the shrimp was quite big and taste sweet indicate that it was a damn fresh) and the sapo tahu also quite big (portion up to 3 people). It cost us 230k for 3 people and it was worth it!

The best soup i have tried. Nothing short of 5 stars. If I could this place would be my only place to eat.

One of the best Chinese restaurants in Sorong. Nice and tasty, reasonable price, friendly waitresses.

I am in the area a few times a year and am happy to know of this place. I had the ikan kuah kuning with papeda and vegetables. It was fantastic. Everything was tasty, fish and vegetables were fresh. Good size portions and prices for this area were very reasonable. Easy to find as well. Will definitely come back

Best food we had in Indonesia. The Padang crab was hands down the best curry I tried ever!

We found this place at the very last of our staying in Sorong. On paper they are look wonderful. To make our stay in Sorong memorable, we’ve decide it to come for the lobster and crab. The moment we enter the restaurant, we notice there are several chest freeze and I saw that the fish wasn’t fresh. Since we didn’t come for fish so we still proceed. We make our order and unfortunately they didn’t have what we like to order so since we already sit there we took a chance , order the fish and squids. Our food arrive quite late and as we suspected the fish wasn’t fresh! It give us an itchy after taste in our tongue. The so called cumi mentega was nowhere taste butter and the squids itself was slightly on the thought side. Isn’t really worth the money when you witnessed in approximately a kilometer from there was seafood market and they are all displaying fresh fish.

Good, traditional Indonesian food. Excellent customer service

Tasted ok. Quite pricey. But everything pretty much is expensive in Sorong, but I think you can get away with something cheaper unless you're entertaining someone.

Personally, this restaurant is not so special for me. For “Makassar Style” ikan bakar, the taste is not outstanding considered the price. Their fish also frozen fish, not life fish, however it is much fresher compared to some seafood restaurant at Jakarta. Chinese food is a little bit better in taste.

fresh seafood and great water spinach balacan, their sambal matah was awesome as well. situated in kampung baru area so it was frequented by tourists going downtown. the seating area was not air-conditioned and sometimes the smoke from the grill outside camd in, but somehow it was not that hot inside. overall price vs quality was just a little bit pricey, considering that other restaurants in this town are sporting the similar price range.

seafood was average. if you want some chinese food you can try this restaurant. The price is to high. You can find more better taste in the streets.For foreigner make sure to ask the price.

Seafood is fresh and delicious especlaiiy grilled fish or squid but too pricey.

Normal food ...it wasnt special as other said..u can find it in every city i . It taste the same

I had a lunch here while transit at Airport Sorong. I walked from airport and maybe around 15-20minutes but actually you can take yellow cab at mainstreet, very cheap but you must walk to outsite airport about 5 minutes, or if you are with families or friend,just take taxi from airport, easy. It’s clean and tidy inside the restaurant, grilled fish that I tried was tasted OK, nothing special, i wanted to try crab but i cant afford. Service was good. Second floor is Karaoke room. It’s quite at the time when i was there. Recommended place to eat but the price quite above average.

Good food in a spacious setting. The seafood portions where a little small, but overall worth a visit if you are in Sorong. Serves up Indonesian fare and service is prompt. Good for large groups as there is plenty of seating space.
