Tanjung Benoa Watersport, The Amazing Marine Tourism In Bali


Tanjung Benoa is located at the east end "shoes" island of Bali, is one tourist destination complete enough water. A variety of water sports available here such as, banana boat, snorkeling, flying fish, parasailing and jetski. Uniquely surf sports that are often found on other beaches of the island of Bali, it is not available at this attraction, this is because there are waves at the location this type tend to be calm, making it less suitable for surfing sports.

The price charged to visitors to enjoy a variety of water sports range from 150 thousand to 200 thousand. With the price stated in writing that visitors can enjoy in the period of 10-15 minutes. But the fact that I've experienced just about 5 minutes. Maybe it's because when the queue of visitors who want to try out quite a lot so allotted time is reduced drastically. Even some tourists outside, tried to interrupt queues seem to remember they are paying more expensive than local tourists.

Flying fish is a new form of water sports is the first time I see it. Consisting of a rubber boat with a capacity of only two people with one officer sitting in the middle as a counterweight. Passengers sleep on her back a boat which was then towed by a speedboat at high speed. As a result, the boat being lifted and fly over the water at a height of 10-15 meters. During his stay in the air, the officer who was sitting in the middle will try to balance the boat to avoid the possibility of spinning or boat overturned because of wind gusts that would be fatal to the user. Given that there are three people in the boat, can sometimes cases where boats can not fly, because it is needed in addition to a high speedboat speed winds are also strong enough to be able to fly. A colleague who is less fortunate to have this happen, what the consequences are not experienced by others cuman just backs tossed by the sea, without experiencing the sensation of "flying fish" should be.

In addition to water sports, visitors can also visit the island of turtles within approximately 30 minutes journey by boat can be rented at the location. Turtle Island is a breeding of various species of endangered sea turtles. At this location visitors can see first hand and ask questions about things turtle breeding process. Turtles that exist in many places separated by the size of his body. There are still measuring the finger until a large enough weight to tens of kilo.
