Denpasar – Gde Wiratha, the head of Bali Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said that the development of sea tourism in Bali and Indonesia is not where it should be. The government hasn’t put enough attention into marine taourism.
“Indonesian under water views are very beautiful and it would surely attract tourists to visit Indonesia, but unfortunately it has not been developed properly,” said Wiratha. Mr. Wiratha being one of the coordinators of the Bali Tourism Board, held a meeting in Nusa Dua to discuss the development of marine tourism which has spread from Bali, Nusa Tenggara, Sulawesi, through Papua.
“Tourists visit Bali often and are curious to see Bali’s under-sea scenery and the government should build the equipment needed for the development such as piers and roads,” added Wiratha. Currently he is developing marine tourism in Gili Rengit and Gili Lontar in southern Lombok.
The Benoa harbor is one of the harbors available in Bali but it is not arranged properly. The conditions at the harbor aren’t suitable for tourists who are traveling through the harbor in order to get to their cruise ships.
