Watersports Beach at Bali
Its the last day so we decided to spend some time doing water sports. The tour guide brought us to this place which specialises in water sports meaning that the only reason people go there is for the watersports.
You can see motorboats everywhere and watersport centres along the whole beach, competing with each other for customers. The prices are alright I guess, but you must be willing to splurge. It costs 150, 000 rupiahs for a 10 minute parasailing ride.
Oh...and because there are so many boats around you're not actually allowed to swim there. The 'swimming area' is one small spot which is surrounded by buoys. Lol this is the first beach that I've been to where you can't swim =_="
I opted for wakeboarding, which was erm......a good experience? Lets say that the objective of wakeboarding is to glide on the waves, what I did would be called a "faceplant". Check out the video below to see what I mean.
Haih, perhaps I would have better luck next time. But I've learnt one thing. Seawater is DAMN salty (lol). Its so easy to get tricked by the clear water and how blue it is reflecting the sky. But once it gets inside your mouth......
I shall leave you with what I do better which is take photographs xP

ReplyDeleteyoonsee, hahaha thanks! I'm flattered.
cHrIstInA_YY, lol do you know how hard it is to type you name right? I had to check 3 to 5 times to make sure I got it right (hahaha). Perhaps for the time being you can 'vacation' through these photographs.
AY, =D it WOULD be nice if my pictures could be sold as postcards. Lol the thing in the video really happened to me. Only many more times over the period of 15 minutes.
