Pulau Weh is very famous for its ecosystem. The Indonesian government has determined the territory to be 60 km² from the edge of the island, both in and out as nature reserves. The unique shark of a big mouthed can be found on the beach of this island. In addition, there are also endangered frogs, namely Bufo valhallae (genus Bufo). Coral reefs around the island are known as the site of various species of fish.

Weh Island is also arguably a small volcanic island located in the northwestern island of Sumatra, because the island was once connected to the island of Sumatra. But then separated by the sea, after the eruption of the last volcano that is in the Pleistocene. And the island is located in the Andaman Sea.

Its beauty extends as far as the eye can see, and is also known as a producer of coconut and cloves. In this island there are two cities, namely Sabang City and Balohan. The city of Balohan is a port of ferries serving as a liaison between Weh and Banda Aceh. While Sabang is an important dock since the end of the 19th century, because this city is the entrance to the Strait of Malacca.

On this island there are four small islands that surround it, namely Klah Island, Rubiah Island, Seulako Island, and Rondo Island. Among the four islands, the island of Rubiah is the most famous, because there is a place of diving tourism, and the beauty of the coral reefs it has.
