Telo Islands right on the Equator. Previously only surfed on Mentawai yachts, there are now a few luxury guest houses with easy but expensive fly-in fly-out services: Resort Latitude Zero, Telo Island Lodge and Surfing Village.
Indonesia’s monetary unit is the RUPIAH (Roo-pee-ah) symbolised as “Rp”. Like Dollars, rupiah are written “Rp 1,000” but said “1,000 Rupiah”. Some tourists refer to “Rupes” when speaking English, but when speaking Indonesian you should only say “Rupiah”. Recently one Australian Dollar was worth just over Rp 10,000. The rate fluctuates daily so only change enough for a few days.
