Hello guys…. How’s your feeling now? I hope all of you on good feeling  ^^

Well, let me introduce my self, My name is Andi Ahsing Ramadhani Tenriabeng  but all my friend just call me Tenri to be simple. I am student of Tour and Travel Business Study Program of Makassar Tourism Polytechnic on 3^rd semester.

And this is my first post on my blog ^^

That is about my experience with all my classmate to do Marine Tourism, such as Snorkeling and Diving.

On October 10^th and 11^th 2019, we have done Marine Field Trip activities for 2 days and 1 night. We visited Dutungan Island in Barru Regency and Paputo Beach in Pare-pare City. We are accompanied by 2 Tour Leader, they are Mr. Didit and Ms. Sardika. Also with 3 Advisor, they are Sir Amirullah, Maam Atriana, and Maam Rosmila. And of course our Vendor PT. Mitra Selaras. 

But before I explain my experience, I’d like to explain a little bit information about Dutungan Island itself.

So, Dutungan Island is known as a tiny island with an tree of around 9 hectares. The location is in the village of Cilelang, Palanro, Mallusetasi district, Barru Regency, South Sulawesi. The tourism object of the island in Barru has been professionally developed, So that the accessibility is little bit friendly both for local tourists and tourist from outside Sulawesi.

Well, next about my experience during the field trip in Dutungan Island. Let’s check it out ^^

      DAY 1

Thursday morning on 0ctober 10^th 2019 around 06.00 am, we gathered in front  of Orange  Building to check participant and sharing id card and luggage tag before we get on the bus. Then, we guiding one by one about some material related to the way to go to the destination.

The 1^st destination that we visited was Barru Regency, that is Dutungan Island. We leaving campus at 07.00 am and finally we arrived at 09.45 am in Barru Regency. But before we across to the Dutungan Island, we have to stop by in Tanjung Indah Dock and then we ride the boat to go there. It’s spent time about 15 until 20 minutes.

After we arrived in Dutungan Island, we prepare ourselves before do Snorkeling and diving. Like we changes our clothes to the swimming clothes and also we got some information about diving and snorkeling. The information is about the rules and equipment of diving and snorkeling. Because it’s  very important for us as the beginner. Then we got lunch before we go down to the sea, to increase our energy, because diving and snorkeling really exhaust energy.

     At first, I did snorkeling to train my body before diving, like how to breath by mouth and how to control your hands and legs on the sea. After that, we got ready to diving. During my diving time, I really excited because this is my first time. The instructor guide and show us the beautiful underwater scenery.

After diving and snorkeling we did an observation at Dutungan Island. The observation that we did is about the completeness of facilities and element 5A ( attractions , activity, accessibility, amenity, accommodation). And the result of my observation is Dutungan Island has many facilities such as gazebo, toilets, lodging, and etc. And of course the equipment of Diving and Snorkeling.

Next, after we did observation, we leaving Dutungan Island and headed to Pare-Pare city to go to Delima Sari Hotel. We arrived and check-in at Hotel at 17.30 pm and then we prepared for dinner and presentation night. At 19.00 pm, we dinner in Ayam Penyet Ria restaurant that located near from our hotels so that we just need 5 minutes to go there by walking. Then after that we back to hotel to presented what we got all day long during our trip especially about marine tour. And then we ended by some entertain by each group. It’s really fun and unforgettable night. And finally we back to our room to take a rest.

      DAY 2

The next day, on Friday October 11^th 2019, we started  our activities at 05.00 am. We did morning exercise and went to The True Love of Habibie & Ainun Monument. It’s near from the hotel so that we just need 20 minutes to get there by walking. Some of my friend did a little jogging in there.

After that, we back to the hotel and prepared to check out from the hotel, but we took breakfast first. Then we leaving the hotel at 08.00 am and headed to Paputo Beach at Pare-pare city to do some observation in there. 

Well, I’ll explain a little bit information about Paputo Beach itself. 

Pantai Pasir Putih Tonrangeng ( Tonrangeng White  Sand Beach ) or known by the abbreviation Paputo, has now become one of the new tourist attraction in Lumpu village, West Bacukiki district, Pare-pare City. As the name implies, the attraction of Paputo is of course it is white sand. There are rarely white sandy beaches in Pare-pare. Not only that, the cool air and the waves helped spoil the visitors while relaxing in the gazebo. For those who bring children, they don’t have to be worry, beside being able to play water, the manager of Paputo also provided a playground for children.

After we did the observation then we did some games and having fun together like singing and dancing. It’s really fun and entertained and of course make us being more closer each other. Then we got relaxing time.

After that, we headed to Teras Empang Restaurant for lunch. That located  in Pare-pare City and near from Paputo Beach itself. Teras Empang Restaurant is one the unique restaurant that I’ve been visited. Because of the theme of this restaurant it’s like we are on the boat and we also can enjoy a beautiful view of pond.

After we got lunch and praying, finally we leaving the restaurant and return back to our beloved Campus, Makassar Tourism Polytechnic in Makassar City. 

So, that’s all about my experiences during Marine Field Trip in Dutungan Island and Paputo Beach for 2 days and 1 night. It’s really amazing and unforgettable trip.

I really thankful to my Campus, Poltekpar Makassar to give me and my friends the opportunity to do this activity. I’m so lucky to be tourism student. And also, thank you to Advisor and Tour Leader who handle and take care for us very well and give us more new knowledge. And of course, I thank you to our vendor PT. Mitra Selaras. And the most important thing is, I thank you to the Almighty Allah SWT because of its blessing so all of this can run smoothly and safely. 

I’m so sorry if there’s a mistake and please tell me by comment so that I can be better. Thank you so much … and see you on my next blog ~~
