About PT Bintang Cemerlang Line (Babang)

If you've ever wanted to cruise across the beautiful, pristine North Maluku, you might run into PT Bintang Cemerlang Line. This ferry company, based at Babang Port in South Halmahera, connects some of the region's most beautiful and inaccessible islands. Bintang Cemerlang is one of the most important links in this marine community, whether you're a student going home to Obi, a trader bringing goods to Kayoa, or a passenger on your route to Ternate.

History

For a long time, South Halmahera, especially Babang Port, has been a method to get from one island to another. Because of its history in the spice trade, this area was a major stopping point for sailors and traders. PT Bintang Cemerlang Line maintains that tradition today, but instead of ships full of nutmeg, they have ferries full of families, stories, and opportunities.
