One of the famous local landmarks is Batu Kopi, a mysterious natural stone that emits the aroma of fresh coffee. Located in Rao Island, Posi-Posi Rao Village, Batu Kopi is a mysterious stone formation located on the beach. Despite there being no coffee plantations or trees on the island, mysteriously, the stone is said to produce the aroma of coffee. However, not all visitors can smell the coffee. Local legends say only the worthy are able to smell it.
