Kepulauan Seribu (Thousand Islands) has become one of the go-to destinations for people spending their Maulid Nabi Muhammad SAW holiday. Records show that 1,729 domestic and international tourists visited various tourist destinations across the Kepulauan Seribu Regency.
According to data from the Kepulauan Seribu Tourism and Creative Economy Sub-Office (Sudin Parekraf), these tourists arrived through various entry points into the Kepulauan Seribu area, both from Jakarta and Tangerang.
“During the Maulid Nabi Muhammad SAW 2026 holiday on August 25, out of a total of 1,729 tourist visits, 1,708 were domestic tourists, while the remaining 21 were international tourists,” said Fahmi Ardi Ramlan, Head of Kepulauan Seribu’s Sudin Parekraf, as quoted from the official website of the Kepulauan Seribu Administrative Regency government.
According to Fahmi, religious and national holidays present an opportunity for the public to enjoy the various tourist destinations across the Kepulauan Seribu area.
He noted that Kepulauan Seribu remains a popular travel choice among the public, thanks to its relatively close proximity to mainland Jakarta, making it easily accessible during holiday periods.
“We hope the strong interest in visiting Kepulauan Seribu can continue to have a positive impact on the tourism sector and the local community’s economy,” he added.
