Nusa Dua and Turtle Island Tour

Saturday, March 10, 2012

Nusa Dua and Turtle Island Tour is a short tour revealing some of the most beautiful beach areas of Bali as well as including a visit to the protected turtle island of Serangan and includes a trip in a glass bottom boats. The entry fees to some of the areas are not included in the price although they are likely to be well under a dollar with the proceeds going towards the causes and the local councils. 


First of all you will call at the infamous Nusa Beach which is a beautiful place to relax and enjoy the Balinese and Indonesian scenery with the clear blue waters stretching as far as you can see and the reefs providing waves for surfing as well as protection for the lagoons which are perfect for swimming as well as a selection of other sports. With all this and some fabulous facilities you will be able to enjoy the Balinese paradise and everything offered around the Nusa Dua area before moving off to the next location. 


The tour will continue to the turtle island called Serangan, although this is a separate island there is now a bridge way linking it to the mainland of Bali. Here you will be able to enjoy the full length of the beach which is still lined as all of Bali’s beaches once were, with traditional beach huts looking onto a pleasant lagoon with some surfing opportunities on the outer reefs. As well as this the Serangan Island offers the main conservation project of turtles in Bali. 


This area is taken seriously and you need to show some form of ID to enter as there have been problems with theft in the past as turtle, although illegal to eat in Indonesia, is still seen as a luxurious delicacy by many. Anyhow you will be able to see the baby turtles and some of the larger turtles and learn about the projects and problems that the dedicated team has faced in their quest to repopulate the Indonesian waters with these incredible animals.
