🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Getting Around
Anywhere in Sorong → Hotel Tanjung
💡 Fastest option for short distances — agree the fare before getting on. From the harbour to Hotel Tanjung costs about 15,000 IDR. Not great if you have big luggage.
City centre / local spots → Hotel Tanjung
💡 Works well for short city trips, but drivers often reject airport pickups. Use cash and check the driver's plate number — spotty data near the harbour.
Domine Eduard Osok Airport (SOQ) → Hotel Tanjung
💡 Buy a fixed-rate coupon at the airport taxi counter just outside baggage claim — avoid haggling with drivers who approach you inside.
Domine Eduard Osok Airport (SOQ) → Sorong city terminal (central market)
💡 Cheaper but drops you at the city centre market. From there, take an ojek (motorbike taxi, ~20,000 IDR) to Hotel Tanjung. No direct hotel drop.

Top Attractions in Sorong
💡 Head upstairs to the food stalls for a cheap Papuan lunch—try sayur daun singkong (cassava leaves) with ikan bakar. Bring small change.
💡 Visit around 6am for morning mass when the local choir sings with traditional instruments. No photography during services.
💡 Ask the caretaker to unlock the back room with the whale skeleton. Donation expected—10,000 IDR is fine. Allow 30-45 minutes.
💡 Go early, before 8am, when the birds are most active and the heat isn't punishing. Wear long sleeves for mosquitoes. No food vendors inside.
💡 Not a swimming beach—sharp coral and strong currents. Best at low tide when more bunkers are exposed. Bring sandals and water.
