Cannabis in Samarinda, Indonesia: my journey
Hello, cannabis enthusiasts! As you may be aware, cannabis laws and regulations can differ significantly from place to place. Join me as I delve into the world of cannabis in Samarinda. In this post, I will explore the landscape of cannabis laws, regulations, the local community's stance, interactions with law enforcement, comparisons between hash and weed availability, as well as the costs associated with acquiring cannabis in Samarinda.
Just finished my vacation, stayed 2 weeks in Samarinda, and as a heavy weed smoker I can't imagine a vacation without some sativa joint during the day and indica buds with some beer before heading to sleep. Below you will find info on what I found out while searching for tasty non-medical weed in Samarinda.

What do Samarinda locals think about weed and cannabis
Despite non-medical cannabis being officially forbidden in Samarinda - locals are absolutely absolutely relaxed about this type of light drugs. Young people and tourists are large target audiences for weed dealers in Samarinda, and all locals know that. This does not mean you may smoke joints in any bars, but no one should be surprised if they find you smoking weed somewhere in the dark corner of the street.
According to Steve - even local cops in Samarinda are occasional weed smokers, so we may state that the atmosphere is relaxed in everything related to cannabis, while you should anyway watch your back to avoid any stressful situations with police.
The overall attitude of locals to weed is rather relaxed, so you may even feel yourself home in Samarinda after one good joint, telling this from my own experience. Steve shared with me a joint of simply perfect sativa (while he did not know the exact strain). We were smoking outside the bar, and saw other guys doing the same on the other side of the street 😁 So I can definitely say that smoking weed is rather popular in Samarinda.
I’ve asked Steve if he may share contacts of his dealer, cause stuff was out of this world. He told me that his exact dealer does not work with new people, so he will be my dealer during my vacation, which was simply perfect. I wish everyone to find your own Steve in some bar of Samarinda.

Cannabis laws in Samarinda, Indonesia
It is important to note that cannabis, weed, and hash are prohibited in Samarinda. You can not officially purchase marijuana strains with high THC concentration in some coffee shops like in Amsterdam. Medical CBD cannabis may be available for purchase at dispensaries, but a prescription from a doctor is required, and you will never get high with CBD.
In one sports bar I got acquainted with Steve who moved to Samarinda 3 years ago, so he knows the local drug scene. According to Steve - despite cannabis being banned according to laws, cops are generally relaxed about weed, sometimes being smokers themselves.
How not to be arrested with marijuana in Samarinda?
As Steve told me - for not to be arrested you can carry less than 10g of cannabis or 5g of hash. For the same purpose you should be sane and not use drugs in public places. Cops can just check if you are going to sell marijuana or not and confiscate it.
There are some possibilities that cops could try to get money from you if they catch you with weed in Samarinda. It is not a frequent story, but you should keep in mind that some cops prefer to force you to pay some money for your calmness. But not to propose money first because it can be regarded as a separate crime. So the easiest way is not to be caught with weed in Samarinda 😉.
Points to find the weed in Samarinda
During the time Steve had been my dealer (it was the solving of all my issues) he was telling me about how the things were going in Samarinda.
High rated providers in Samarinda buy the cannabis on darknet websites that maintain gross orders. These orders can contain a big amount of weed and hash, kilograms I think. Some websites work on small orders too, so if you are close to Tor browser working and know how to .onion sites doing - glance on thehiddenwiki.com, wait for a couple of days and get your package. This site has all the information needed about darknet.
If you are just having a short vacation or a trip to Samarinda - purchasing weed via wholesale darknet websites is not an option. Looking for dealers on the streets and in parks is still something you may do to find some weed in Samarinda, but more and more dealers are shifting to online orders done via messengers and payments in bitcoins instead of cash. This simply protects them from ever being caught by cops. Crypto payments are anonymous and delivery is done to selected location without any personal meetings, so both you and the dealer are secured from any possible consequences.
This was a surprise for me cause I am more old school and just “heard something about crypto”. While now all youngsters (who are usually a target group for cannabis dealers) have crypto wallets so dealers simply follow the trend. I think dealers are losing money anyway because not all clients know crypto, but Steve commented that nowadays if you do not use crypto - you 100% have a friend who uses it, so you may just send him money from card and he does crypto transaction for you. After that I remembered I also have such a friend, so I agreed with Steve.

Frequently asked questions about Cannabis in Samarinda
Is cannabis legal in Samarinda?
No, non-medical cannabis is not legal in Samarinda, while cops are relaxed towards weed and having less than 20 grams in your pocket should not result in arrest.
What if I get caught with weed in Samarinda?
If cops think you are a real dealer who delivers stuff - you will have problems. But usually tourists with small amounts of hash or weed are not touched at all, only dealers should worry.
Can I buy weed on the streets of Samarinda?
Yes you still can. This is an outdated approach already so more and more dealers are switching to online sales, but hustling parks and central streets may still give you successful results. While much easier would be finding dealer’s contacts and order online with further delivery.
Is it possible to find high-quality weed or hash in Samarinda?
Yes, although the quality may vary depending on the dealer.
What are the prices for weed and hash in Samarinda?
Prices can vary from dealer to dealer and are often influenced by the quality of the product and the dealer's pricing strategy 😂. Based on what I observed, super high-quality weed can cost between $20 to $25 per gram (with discounts for larger quantities), and high-quality hash typically ranges from $30 to $35 per gram. I haven't purchased low-quality weed in Samarinda, so I'm not sure about the prices for that, but they should generally be lower.
Interesting facts about weed
Rasta brothers and sisters need your help! Just arrived to Samarinda and plan to relax daily so please share contacts of trusted dealer with top weed, do not care about the price, top quality is #1 requirement. Have cash, crypto, skrill, paypal etc
I see) One more tourist is searching for weed😀
Any help, jason? Or just laughing?
Sorry bro my dealer disappeared 3 days ago and does not respond so also waiting for someone to share contacts of trusted druid, with delivery option if possible
I thought everyone knows our local wizard Bob Marley with top stuff - @bob_marley_spirit - just mind he may be slow in response sometimes, regular fucking dealer who always smokes his own stuff lol, but the quality worth waiting
Thanks bro marry me 😀 you made my day! will give it a try and comment how everything goes
Ha ha guys, thanks so much, everything went through successfully! Contacted Bob Marley in Telegram, he replied in about an hour, had 3 strains of weed and hash available, prices around $25 for 1g of weed and $35 for hash, but the more you buy the lower price you get. Minimal order is 3g, payment in crypto only and delivery to selected area + drop without personal meeting. I got everything delivered during 40 minutes to the area of my hotel, got photo and description where to grab, just went around my hotel and took empty cola can with weed inside from place on the photo - was easy as 1 2 3. I ordered 5g of Pineapple sativa strain, below attaching photos of this perfection



Congrats bro! I also found another way to get cool weed just in case - my friend share a link to weed auto-sale bot in Telegram. I heared such exist but never used one, so this was my first time haha) Here is the link - @happy_rasta_bot. You are offered several strains and positions that are already hidden (usually in city center), so you just select what you want, pay in crypto and get GPS coordinates and photo of place where to take your stuff. Also after payment bot gives you a unique URL to auto-delete chat with support guy who resolves issues that may happen. I found everything quickly so had no need to contact support, not sure how it works, but these guys look serious. Also made some photos, stuff is top one, pricing is almost the same as Bob Marley has, rather fair as for me. Photo below

Thanks for info! I pinged Bob Marley but he was not responsive as guys warned, so also used a bot - fuck, this is really something new in dealing drugs I should say. Bob Marley replied already when I got stuff from bot, so it was to late - robot won this fight with human🥳Photo below
