History & Culture
The Mentawai Islands, located off the western coast of Sumatra, are home to one of Indonesia’s oldest indigenous cultures. The Mentawai people live in harmony with nature, maintaining a deeply spiritual way of life rooted in animism, ancestral worship, and traditional tattoo art. Visiting the Mentawai is not just a tropical escape, it’s a journey into a living cultural heritage that has withstood time.
