East Timor

Island sights in East Timor

  1. Atauro

    The idyllic island getaway of Atauro is visible from Dili, but a world away. It's home to a close-knit community of around 8000 people, mostly subsistence fishers and farmers. The island's eco-lodge, Tua Koin, provides traditional thatched-hut accommodation. Roll out of bed and into the sea, with world-class snorkelling.

    All profits fund community projects, such as schools.
