About Camp Green Bay
Green Bay is a hidden cove on the western side of Meru Betiri, known for its clear emerald water — the result of white sand, coral reefs, and sunlight. Access is via a 2–3 hour trek from Sukamade or by boat, which keeps the bay quiet and natural.
Camping here means a fully off-grid experience: no electricity, no wifi, only the sound of waves and a sky full of stars. Tents, mats, mosquito nets, food, and snorkeling gear are all provided.
