BANYUWANGI - Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy (Kemenparekraf) launched the 3B Tourism Package, namely connecting Banyuwangi-West-North Bali tourism at Yacht Boom Marina Port, Banyuwangi Regency, East Java.

Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy Sandiaga Salahudin Uno explained that the 3B Tourism Package offers a combination of tourism potential wealth in three tourist destination areas, namely Banyuwangi, West Bali, North Bali.

"This is a very rich attraction in terms of natural beauty, culture and will be supported by rich culinary delights. I am sure this 3B tour package will hit, especially since Banyuwangi has complete tourism potential," he said, quoting from ANTARA, Saturday, September 21.

Sandiaga stated that the 3B Tourism Package is also part of supporting Banyuwangi international tourism.

The leading destination in Banyuwangi, he continued, will be the main treats in the three area tour packages, such as the Ijen Crater Nature Tourism Park which is famous for the phenomenon of blue flames, Teluk Ijo Beach, Red Island, De Djawatan Forest, to Sukamade Beach, which is known as a house for egg turtles.

The tourism potential in Banyuwangi, said Sandiaga, will later be combined with West Bali, including surfing spots on Medewi Beach to national parks that have endemic fauna in Jalak Bali.

Furthermore, destinations in North Bali, which have mainstay destinations such as Tembok Tourism Village, Les Tourism Village, Screening and Lovina Beach.

Sandiaga said that he deliberately launched the 3B Tourism Package at the end of September 2024 to welcome the long holiday season at the end of the year.

He is optimistic that this tour package that connects Banyuwangi to North Bali and West Bali will be an attraction for foreign tourists, such as Chinese and Taiwanese tourists.

"After the year-end holiday, it will be followed by the Chinese New Year holiday in February 2025. I am sure this will be attractive to foreign tourists because Mount Ijen is included in the top of the mind of Chinese tourists," Sandiaga said.
