Tambrauw “The Second Raja Ampat” |
The opening of land access from Sorong-Sausafor, the city of the temporary administration of Tambrauwm Regency, and Manokwari-Kebar as the entrance to Tambrauw makes it easy for tourists to visit.
In addition, the Port of Sausafor began preparing to welcome tourists from Raja Ampat using a chartered boat. "I and the Regent of Tambrauw have set Tambrauw's slogan as The Second Raja Ampat," said Deputy Assistant for Marketing Development II Regional I of the Ministry of Tourism, Vincentius Djemandu in discussions with the Tourism Journalists Forum (Forwapar) at Movenpick Resort and Spa Bali.
All preparations to bring tourists began to be prepared in 2018. One of them, Mc Arthur Werur Airport has twice expanded and extended the runway. Previously, the length of the track was only 800 meters. Then it was extended to 1,200 meters and then 1,400 meters.
"In 2019, it will be extended again to 1,600 meters, we will try to work with the airlines to open direct flights from Manado to Tambrauw," said Tambrauw Regent, Gabriel Asem.
In addition to accessibility that has been outstanding, Tambrauw has potential destinations that are ready to be promoted. Tambrauw's destination is divided into two zones, namely Blue Wonder and Green Wonder.
Blue Wonder covers the sea and coastal areas. The area starts from Jeen Womom Beach, which is the location for the leatherback turtle nesting. It is said that the largest habitat in the world.

Target Chinese and American tourists
The projected opening of Manado-Tambrauw direct flights is made to attract foreign tourists from China. The large number of Chinese tourists visiting Manado is the main reason.
"We will prepare a culinary bag made from marine fish which is still very fresh, and ready to be served at Blue Wonder, a plan to be established in the Werbes District. Because tourists from China like the menu offerings, "said Gabriel.
Another case with the concept of attracting tourists from America. The many remnants of history related to World War II in Tambrauw and bird of paradise observations are predicted to attract American tourists.
"We just got the data, and will be followed up for us to enter Tambrauw destinations with the target of American tourists. There is a Voice of Indonesia From Florida program, by visiting schools to bring students on tours to Papua, "said the Head of Marketing Development II Area of the United States, Ministry of Tourism.
The beauty of Tambrauw's panorama has not been highlighted by the world, whereas in this place tourists can enjoy unique and rare scenery. One of Tambrauw's uniqueness is the presence of leatherback turtles that live in this area, whereas this type of turtle usually lives in the waters of Florida, the African Continent, and India.
Tambrauw is one of the attractions in West Papua that provides a different tourist experience. There are two zones of Blue Wonder and Green Wonders. Blue Wonder presents beaches and sea sand that are still blue and beautiful. Green Wonders presents the beauty of the mountains, trees and unique animals of Papua. Tambrauw is known as the second Raja Ampat.
