One of the great sightseeing points in Pulau Ambon is the
"Batu Chapeo" - the free standing stone at beachside with upper side like a hut. Here at Photo seen at noon and at low tide, in the background the view to Laha Airport of other side of Ambon Bay. The hight of Bato Capeo is so about 6 m over ground. Like in other Ambon places too there is around the "Batu Capeo" a nice story of an Ambonese heroine....together with the Gunung Nona. (but more later please).
Nice all- but maybe the time is running quick- the waves are in the raintime very strong, hope the Batu Capeo will withstand wind and weather fot long time. Directions: From Kota Ambon, with taxi or Angkota, direktion Latuhalat, situated so in the hight of Siwalima museum. But from street the Batu Capeo is not direct seen- ask the driver. In the south coast near Banda see you will find not only the well known Santai Beach with the not so far divers station, there is even a great place of undisturbed nature. The big waves of Banda See create a strange wild landcape. In the Frontpage you had seen a picture of Pintu Kota - the door of Ambon. Here is a view of the other side of the bay of Pintu Kota- a stony landfall of big stones formed from great waves of Banda See in raintime. In Ambon the raintime goes from April until August.
