Timor-Leste - Around Dili (Chapter)

This chapter contains the East of Dili, West of Dili and South of Dili chapters from Lonely Planet’s Timor-Leste (East Timor) guidebook.

You can get lost for a week or more exploring the lands and seas east of Dili; Portuguese forts and beautiful coast are more than enough reason to head west; while heading south is the easiest way to get a quick change of scenery and weather.

• immerse yourself in absolute paradise at Tutuala Beach and Jaco Island
• maps
• take a dip in the soothing Marobo hot springs
• transport
• restaurants & accommodation
• visit the Dare War Memorial to learn more about Timor-Leste during WWII and for the best view of Dili
