Tours Sumatra in
Indonesia
Sumatra (Indonesian: Sumatera) is a large island in western Indonesia
that is part of the Sunda Islands. It is the largest island that is entirely in
Indonesia (two larger islands, Borneo and New Guinea, are shared between
Indonesia and other countries) and the sixth-largest island in the world at
473,481 km2 (not including adjacent islands such as the Riau Islands and Bangka
Belitung Islands).
Sumatra is an elongated landmass spanning a diagonal northwest-southeast axis. The Indian Ocean borders the west, northwest, and southwest coasts of Sumatra with the island chain of Simeulue, Nias and Mentawai off the western coast. In the northeast the narrow Strait of Malacca separates the island from the Malay Peninsula, which is an extension of the Eurasian continent. In the southeast the narrow Sunda Strait separates Sumatra from Java. The northern tip of Sumatra borders the Andaman Islands, while off the southeastern coast lie the islands of Bangka and Belitung, Karimata Strait and the Java Sea. The Bukit Barisan mountains, which contain several active volcanoes, form the backbone of the island, while the northeastern area contains large plains and lowlands with swamps, mangrove forest and complex river systems. The equator crosses the island at its center in West Sumatra and Riau provinces. The climate of the island is tropical, hot and humid. Lush tropical rain forest once dominated the landscape.
Sumatra has a wide range of plant and animal species but
has lost almost 50% of its tropical rainforest in the last 35 years. Many
species are now critically endangered, such as the Sumatran ground
cuckoo, the Sumatran tiger, the Sumatran
elephant, the Sumatran rhinoceros, and the Sumatran
orangutan.
