I had a very educational time surfing the Internet this morning. I learned that there is a Batu Karas Beach in West Java, Indonesia and there is a Karas Island in Sebakor Bay off the coast of West Papua, New Guinea, Indonesia. First recorded sighting by Europeans of Sebakor Bay and Karas Island was by the Spanish expedition of Luís Vaez de Torres on 30 October 1606. Sebakor Bay was charted by the Spaniards as Bahía Bermeja (Reddish Bay in Spanish). Who knew? See the link below on Batu Karas Beach.
