Indonesia – Blue Planet Odyssey in Selayar
Channel: Tropical Sailing Life
Date: 15/01/2016

After Tual and BauBau, the BPO participants visited Selayar where once again they were not disappointed by their short stay. Once again, they had a chance to taste great local food  and do interesting cultural and natural sightseeing. From a tour of Benteng city to Bitombang with the special old houses … from the turtle conservation and education initiative to the snorkeling & diving at Pasi islands. The group also visited the local jail and a primary school where recycling was taught. We were lucky to be there and invited for the anniversary celebration of the Teratai Passiana Art Club. What a great way to experience the local dancing and music! Linda, our tourism office main guide did a great job coordinating our tours.
Thanks again for the assistance of Mr Kadhafi ST and Mr Arsyad from Selayar Tourism & Culture. Thanks also to our guides Linda, Sophia & other guides and our friend Marwiyah. Video was made with footage from John Hayes & Klaudia Zayon. Filmed in October 2015. Thanks to Ghost for additional music.
