NTT is one of archipelago provinces in Indonesia. It has more than 1000 islands (note: official document only 566 islands) and 246 islands have a name but only 46 islands have citizens.
There are 4 big islands that are Flores, Sumba, Timor and Alor (they are often called FLOBAMORA) and a number of small islands such as: Adonara, Babi, Lomblen, Pamana Besar, Panga Batang, Parmahan, Rusah, Samhila, Solor, (belong to East Flores), Lembata (belong to Lembata District), Batang, Kisu, Lapang, Pura, Rusa, Trweng (Alor District), Pulau Dana, Doo, Landu Manifon, Manuk, Pamana, Raijna, Rote, Sarvu, Semau (Kupang and Rote Ndao District), Pulau Loren, Komodo, Rinca, Sebabi Sebayur Kecil, Sebayur Besar Serayu Besar (Manggarai District), Untelue (Ngada District), Halura (East Sumba District).
NTT is included to semi arid area therefore the rain is very low. Rainy season is only no more than 3 months.
Even though NTT is an archipelago, only small part of NTT people are sailor whereas the sea fisheries is very potential. The most sailors are originally from Bone tribe. That's why many people in NTT cannot swim.
