WEST PAPUA - The beauty of Raja Ampat in West Papua certainly can not be doubted. But if you know a new destination West Papua travel named Teluk Triton (Triton Bay), you will be amazed.

Teluk Triton is one of the bays in the waters that entered the district of Kaimana, West Papua.

"Recognition of a few people already I spoke to the Teluk Triton after of Raja Ampat, they say, here is more beautiful," said Matias Mairuma, regent of Kaimana, .

Matias said Teluk Triton is said to be more beautiful than Raja Ampat partly because the trees are verdant above the cluster of coral islands. Raja Ampat is touted more barren and dry.

"I've invited people from the Netherlands to the Teluk Triton. He said, it was heaven sent down to earth to be here," said Matias.

To get to the bay, travelers can use the high-speed motor boat or a motor boat length from the Port Kaimana. When using high-speed motor boats, Teluk Triton can be reached in about 60 minutes.

Then the charm is there in the Teluk Triton?

As with Raja Ampat, in the Teluk Triton are clusters of coral islands towering, decorated with green trees.

Traveling by boat can be a high-speed motor boats sensation while driven at high speed, snaking between the cluster of islands that.

Water in Teluk Triton is very clear that in some shallow water areas, travelers can see the colorful coral reefs.

Of course incomplete when visiting a marine tourism destination without swimming in the sea. If indeed that is your goal, then Ermun beach could be one option.

Ermun beach is one of the stations in Teluk Triton. After passing through the cluster of coral islands, then you will be taken to Ermun white sandy beach. There, you can swim as much.

Matias said Teluk Triton is also a dive sites can be excellent. Some divers have ever visited Triton said coral reefs on the ocean floor Triton has a beauty that is no less than any other location.

"Some divers even choose the time to dive at night. I had asked them, they told me at night there is a beautiful city on the sea floor," he said.

The definition of the city on the sea floor that is a group of colorful coral reefs that can be seen shining at night. Matias said one of seabed resources Triton is a coral reef soft glow at night.

In addition to diving and swimming, at Triton travelers can also enjoy one of the prehistoric remains, the painting on the wall of a cliff overlooking the Bicari bay.

"Until now unknown intent and meaning of the painting. The locals also do not know, including the materials used to paint because it does not wear off even though exposed to the waves," said Matias.

Red paintings contained in the cliffs along the one kilometer consists of a variety of forms ranging from a man's head until the palms.

Allegedly, the painting was created ancestors of local people or people who inhabit the region before.

"If that made the ancestors of Kaimana, of course there is a story told from generation to generation. In fact, people also do not know who made the writing it," he said.

Regent said continue to prepare local communities to be able to support and living from tourism and fisheries.

"The first is that people need to be prepared so as not to occur when the potential rejection in Kaimana has developed," he explained.

Therefore, Matias wish there investors who are interested to invest in Kaimana, particularly in the Gulf of Triton. However, he requires capital inflow must not damage the environment.

"If the environment is damaged, which enjoys only the current generation. Tourism is a potential that will never run out, because it needs to be maintained," he said.

Matias also expect capital inflow to Kaimana involving local communities so they can develop and strengthen their economies.

"Kaimana has some potential for tourism and fisheries. Of the approximately 61,000 inhabitants, 70 percent live in coastal areas," he said.
