Situated just under 60km south of Bandar Lampung, the small coastal town of KALIANDA is a great alternative to the hassles and expenses of the city, and an excellent stopping-off point whether you're entering or leaving Sumatra. It's served by public transport from the Bakauheni ferry terminal and from the Panjang and Rajabasa terminals in Bandar Lampung Kalianda. Public transport in Kalianda arrives at Terminal Pasar Impress in front of the main market; wander the alleyways here to enjoy the sights, sounds and smells. The best travellers' accommodation is in the Beringin Hotel, Jl Kesuma Bangsa 75 (tel 0727/2008; c), in a large, colonial-style bungalow with big rooms, an airy lounge and a garden. To get here from the terminal, go back onto the road, turn right for about 400m to a junction where a large road joins from the right; head down here past the local school and the hotel is at the far end on the left. Alternatively, hire an ojek. The hotel organizes local trips, including excursions to Krakatau . The post office is at Jalan Pratu M Yusuf and the telephone office on the main street is open 7am to midnight. The main shopping street is Jalan Serma Ibnu Hasyim, a short walk from the Beringin Hotel.
