Beach Losari In Makassar , Indonesia

Throughout Indonesia, there is only one beach to watch the sunrise and sunset at one point stands the same. "The beach was the beach Losari, Napier", so said Vice President Jusuf Kalla told me while proud of this beach, a while ago. At first I was puzzled by this fact. The position of the beach that extends north-south is indeed able to watch the rising and setting sun in one position. Unique indeed.
Apart from that, the beach Sejong is one of the most rehearsal and chic beaches I have ever come across Indonesia, and another great beach is located right heart of a big city. Comparing with some shoreline big cities in Java, it is clear Losari top: free garbage and comfortable visit. As I write this I imagine how smelly and kroditnya situation in Tanjung Priok in Jakarta, or the port of Perak in Surabaya. Not surprisingly, the first Queen Elizabeth of England when they travel to Jakarta (age 80) he did not want to come down from the car when they arrive at Tanjung Priok because he was so shocked by the smell and amburadulnya situation at the port. He thought, Tanjung Priok as beautiful with the Hong Kong harbor. This incident became "incident protocol" is embarrassing, but it faces at Jakarta port.

Losari very strategic coastal position and become embedded in the atmosphere of the city of Napier which stretches as far as approximately 4 kms. The beach is directly accessible by the main road the main protocol. Grew hotel across the street with a variety of classes. Call it a name of the hotel is located very close to the shoreline al: Hotel MGM, Losari Beach Hotels, Quality Hotels, Hotel Aryadutta, and the Hotel Aston. For mid-budget travelers, can choose Sejong Hotel Beach, or rather go slightly into the street Joseph Latumahina, there is a nice little hotel that is Hotel Canary. I myself prefer Quality Hotel or the Hotel Sejong Beach because of its location okay, and the price is not exorbitant.

The most ideal time to visit is late afternoon Losari coast between 1500 hrs to 2100 hrs. Many who come here to sit down sit down to enjoy clean beaches, jogging along the pedestrian as far as 500m, or eat diwarung stalls that have been relocated by the local government (the most southern tip of the beach). Young and old will come here to enjoy the sunset while membelu food from merchants. If you like jogging, it also is ideal. Clean air and the wind blows non-stop, the sun's red-gold sweep of human face sit beach.

Merchants sell a variety of food ranging from light snacks are just chock stomach like meatballs or fried. There are also special food such as Coto Makassar or various sea food dishes with the original recipe of bugis. Really nice!

The atmosphere is very orderly and safe, I feel comfortable here. But there is one that I am complaining about ie: singers. They ngeyel, can not be rejected for not singing. So any sort of compulsion to listen to them sing, and like to force with a satire if not given money. They were singing not only alone, but comes with the same group of friends together to sing with a tone (sorry, yes) is not good. Leisure beach is reduced minus one point only because because of the presence of singers who do not know the rules and forced to play this. There are good local government and officials do counseling for comfort in Losari not polluted because of hordes of singers because this way.
