According to him, the tourist visits were collected from all tourist attractions in Bantul, starting from the Parangtritis Beach area on the east side to the west coast to Pantai Baru, then a number of natural tourist attractions managed by the local government.

Tourists who came to the Bantul tourist attraction have been seen since the first day of Eid al-Fitr, but it is increasing the following day, until Saturday (13/4) there were more than 20 thousand visits.

"Tourist visits on Saturday (13/4) from morning to 18.00 WIB were 26,791 people with PAD revenues of Rp254 million," he said.

Meanwhile, the acting (plt) Head of the Bantul Tourism Office, Kwintarto Heru Prabowo, said that he favored a number of tourist attractions in the southern coast area in welcoming tourist visits during the Eid holiday.

"The beach tours are still favorites on Parangtritis Beach, then Depok Beach, Baru Beach, Cemara Cave Beach and Cemoro Sewu, at least at the five points we still prioritize for tourism on the south coast," he said.

However, he said, the Parangtritis Beach tourist attraction and its surroundings are still the main destinations for tourists visiting Bantul, considering that there are also sand clump areas that can attract tourists.

"Then it is possible that other beaches, such as Cangkring Beach, Parangkusumo Beach, will still be relatively good for tourists to enjoy," he said.
