Next day after our arrival at Bali, we headed to Turtle Island in Tanjung Benoa, Bali.
We had gone on speed boat. There were many corals and fishes on the way. Our journey on speed boat was amazing. It was a glass bottom boat. Our tour guide told us to drop bread pieces in water and we could see fishes coming up to grab them. I loved watching them.

I even could spot a star fish! But that moment was so swift, I couldn’t capture the same.
I loved the clear skies from the boat. People were doing parasailing tied to speed boats.

It was almost thirty to forty five minutes of journey by boat to the Tanjung Benoa for Batara Watersport.
When we reached Batara Watersports, we were told to take off shoes. We then headed to the area of Turtle Island. It was a nice weather. At first we saw turtles. My friends even touched them but I couldn’t.

There were little turtles in small pools. The size increased with the sequence. Last pool had only two biggest turtles. I was amazed to see them.
Then it was turn of Iguana, the beautiful creature. Iguana was quiet and observant. I could peacefully click a photograph with it.

There was a pair of birds in the cage. They were quite active.
Next was python in line. People were touching python as well. But I couldn’t somehow. They had tied the mouth of python wit tape.

Next was big bat hanging up the roof of cage. I had seen a bat this clear and close at this Turtle Island.

There was a sitting area for snacks as well. We relaxed there for a while. Overall, it was a short and sweet trip. It took us maximum one hour to experience the whole area.
