    You can use "Microbus" (or Bemo). The uniqueness of public transportation in the city of Kupang is due to the appearance filled with accessories, decorations and music blaring.

    In early 2015 Rp. 2,000 was an acceptable payment for bemo rides around town and to the airport.

    If you like loud music, you can try "Diskotek Berjalan" style of Kupang.
    *If you are in Kupang a visit to the Roslin Orphanage is a definite must. Google and youtube "Roslin Orphanage" for more information. Peggy and Budi Soehardi are CNN heroes and once you read about their story, you will understand why. Better yet, don't just read about it- go and visit the orphanage and meet them in person.
    *A clear, blue underground pool, ideal for cooling off and an adventure to climb down into a cave to get to the crystal-clear water. To get here, take Bemo for Bolok and get off just as it turns towards Bolok ferry port (IDR2000 per person from Kupang, IDR5000 if it turns into the port as the Bemo has to pay an extra fee). Continue walking west on the main road (in the direction the Bemo was travelling) and after a couple of kms, you'll see a turning to the right marked with a big blue sign for the water police. Look for the words 'Pol Air'. After a few hundred meters, you'll start to see some little paths leaving the road to the left - follow any of these as they converge around the cave entrance. Clamber down and have a lovely swim! Take a torch/flashlight and be prepared for slippy rocks as you go down into the cave.

    Grilled corn (jagung bakar) is a popular snack. It is available at Pantai Teddy's (near Pantai Laut and Teddy's bars) and along El Tari street.

    Pasar Malam (Night Market) is a popular dinner location for both tourists and locals alike. It specialises in grilled fish but other seafood, chicken and common Indonesian staples are available as well. It is occasionally even possible to find the local dish "Jagung Bose" for sale at the market.

    The main local disk is Sei Babi (smoked pork) which while most popular from Baun (a town about 25km west of kupang) there are a number of options available in Kupang as well. The most popular of these are Bamboo Kuning near the mall, Pondok Sawah near the stadium and Aroma near the school SMP2. There are also many smaller warungs that sell sei around.

    Pantai Laut bar and restaurant by the old harbour (now just a broken pier) is a popular place for tourists to eat and have a cold drink by the sea.

    Rotterdam Steakhouse is located near Hotel Kristal. It specialises in steak and is known for a nice seaside setting.

    Nalayan restaurant located by the sea is a large restaurant that is popular for larger groups. They have a wide range of food but are occasionally full with a wedding or similar celebration.

    Palapa Resto is a newer restaurant that serves mostly chinese and seafood dishes. It is located near the Governer's house on a moderately busy road. You are subject to some street noise from here but it has a nice courtyard enclosed by trees that offers an escape from the nearby traffic.

    OCD beach cafe in Lasiana is a recent addition to Kupang. It is about 15 minutes out of the main city of Kupang at the popular Lasiana Beach. It offers both open indoor and outdoor seating at a lovely location. However it may be difficult to get back to Kupang in the evening when the bemo's stop running unless you have other transport arranged.

    Pantai Laut bar and restaurant is a popular open air seaside bar that draws tourists, expats and a small number of locals. This is probably the most popular of the drinking options although is called "Teddy's" by many locals as the side used to be occupied by Teddy's bar.

    Teddy's bar is small bar across the road from Pantai Laut that can be heard playing karaoke until the early hours of the morning.

    Rotterdam Steakhouse is a slightly more expensive option but has a well decorated seaside setting and live music on weekends. It is more of a restaurant than a bar and closes earlier than the others but is a nice place if not planning to stay up until the early hours of the morning.

    OCD Beach Cafe on Lasiana is a quiet cafe on the popular Lasiana Beach (and is currently the only place to get a drink on the beach in Kupang). It is about 15 minutes out of the main city and may be difficult to get too and from in the evening by bemo. So if planning to stay late private transport should be arranged in advance. The staff may be able to assist with this.

    There were fraud cases reported in [wiki=bbe5159a513682f0c5d1039abc9bf24f]Kupang[/wiki] about foreigners who were robbed by local women. This seems to be a big problem in the city so just be aware about the scammers.

    Saltwater crocodiles are present within Kupang Bay; be cautious before swimming.

    Local police seem quite anxious to stop foreigners on motorbikes, but any bribe attempts are easily diffused by smiles and friendliness. The city's main intersection, where the road splits in to four separate arteries, may best be avoided as the police tend to set permanent road blocks up here.
