THE Implementation of Restrictions on Community Activities (PPKM) policy that requires us to stay at home does feel heavy, pal. Even so, we must fully support the rules that have been set by the government to suppress the surge in COVID-19 cases.
By following the vaccination program recommended by the government, slowly but surely, Sobat Pesona or buddy pesona has helped this country achieve herd immunity, so that tourism and the creative economy can quickly rise.
Even though Sobat Pesona is not currently able to go on a trip, there is nothing wrong if Sobat Pesona makes a travel bucket list first. This vacation recommendation fell to one of the islands in the Pulau Seribu or Thousand Islands.
The Thousand Islands save a variety of natural charms that must be visited. Sobat Pesona will definitely not feel bored exploring the islands there. Even Minister Sandiaga Uno also emphasized that the Thousand Islands is an icon of tourism, during a visit to Pramuka Island on August 13, 2021.
One of the islands that must be included in your Sobat Pesona holiday bucket list is Pramuka Island. The natural beauty of Pramuka Island and the friendliness of its residents to tourists need not be doubted.
Pramuka Island is one of the most populated islands and at the same time serves as the Central Government of the Thousand Islands Administrative District. Even Pramuka Island was known to the public before Tidung Island, Pari Island, Harapan Island, Bidadari Island, and other islands.
The origin of the name Pulau Pramuka or Scout Island itself was obtained because in the 1950s to 1970s many Scouting activities were held on this island. To get there, you have to travel by sea for 1.5 hours from Marina Ancol Pier by speed boat, or about 2.5 hours by wooden boat from Muara Angke. However, the trip will not be felt because Pesona Pesona can enjoy the breeze, the roar of the waves, and see the beautiful scenery around it.
Arriving there, you can try snorkeling attractions to see firsthand the beautiful coral reefs on the seabed and also feel like swimming with ornamental fish around the coral reefs.
If you are a true nature conservation lover, then it is worth visiting the Psychic Turtle Conservation Center. There the turtles that are currently being protected, bred and cared for in an area where the tourists who come can directly touch the pygmy turtles.
In addition, Sobat Pesona will also get complete insight about this one species. The turtles that are old enough will be released on the beach by involving the visiting tourists.
The facilities offered by Pramuka Island are also quite complete, from lodging to restaurants available there. For those of you who want to do water sports such as scuba diving and snorkeling, you don’t need to worry, because this place is the only location that has diving rental services and service providers certified for Cleanliness, Health, Safety, Environmental Sustainability (CHSE).
