The Beach At Lintas Timur Bangka Is Invaded By Thousands Of Tourists, Tickets Are Priced At Rp. 5000 But Some Are Also Free

JAKARTA - A number of beaches in Lintas Timur Bangka have been visited by thousands of tourists in recent days. Tourists who come not only come from Bangka Belitung, but also come from Jakarta, Palembang, and even Central Java.

The beaches that have been observed as tourist attacks are Tikus Emas beach, Mang Kalok beach, Pukan, Takari. This is fairly reasonable considering that the beach there is not only beautiful with sloping white sand and beach waves, but also decorated with neat and lush pine trees.

In addition, the ticket price is quite affordable. The average beach entrance ticket is IDR 5,000 per person. There are even beach managers who do not set the entrance fee or free.

Tikus Emas beach management officer Wasis Pujo Pranoto said tourist visits had increased since D+2 Eid, with an average number of visitors reaching 1,500 to 4,000 people.

"Today we have not been able to calculate the number of visitors because it is adjusted to the tickets sold until this afternoon," he said, as quoted by Antara.

Meanwhile, entrance tickets at Sungailiat Gold Tikus beach are charged at Rp. 5,000 per person, Rp. 10,000 for buses, Rp. 5,000 cars and Rp. 2,000 motorbikes.

According to one visitor from Central Java, Teguh, he and his family came to Bangka to stay in touch with family in Bangka. In addition, they also take advantage of this opportunity to enjoy the beautiful atmosphere of Bangka beach tourism.

"I purposely came to stay for Eid with my family in Bangka while enjoying the beauty of the beach," he said.
