3 Day East Coast Tour
Day 1
Travel eastwards along the north coast road to
Manatuto, passing by
beautiful coastal cliffs. Stop in
Manatuto for a visit to the local arts and clay handcrafts or
the former Portuguese administration house.
Continue through the rice paddies of
Laleia until
Baucau, the second largest
city. There you can visit the old market building or head down to the
beach. Going further east, Laga
and Lautém are fishing
villages with remains of Portuguese fortresses. Arrive at
Com.
Day 2
Leave early in the morning to
Tutuala. Look at the traditional sacred houses and the
numerous tombs on the roadside, identified with sacrificial totems of
buffalo horns. Passing though the
Lake Ira Lalaro you can search for the pre-historic paintings
of Ilekerkere and then head
on to Tutuala beach.
You can take a boat ride to
Jaco Island to explore the coral reefs and experience
some amazing snorkeling and diving. Staying overnight in tents
by the beach, after having a grilled fresh fish for dinner is an
unforgettable experience.
Day 3

the capital of the eastern district, and then to Baucau and
Dili, taking the road to Lautém.
On your way back take a swim in the clear waters of
