Some were jet skiing, others played on the banana boats or went para-sailing, snorkeling and scuba diving.
Water sports are perfectly suited to Tanjung Benoa’s sea, and with calm waves and crystal clear water, it is quiet safe for snorkeling and diving. Water sports businesses offer a variety of packages and numerous buses drop off the tourists who love the seas.
Most of the operators are registered with the Association of Water Sports Operators and Owners and prices are usually in line with the association’s standards. Meanwhile, a once serene water sports area, Tanjung Benoa is under the local, national and even international spotlight following the controversial plans for a gigantic tourism project.
Environmentalists and the water sports industry have expressed their deepest concern over the planned project that could affect the currents and waves, ultimately influencing water sports and related activities. However, hope remains that Tanjung Benoa, if well maintained, will continue to provide visitors with great memories of their vacation on the island of Bali.
