The atmosphere changed when suddenly our guidance shouted, pointing to a little market to a location where a group of dolphins seen jumping into the water. Perahupun immediately raced toward the site, and looked several other boats were moving towards the same. It was a thrilling thing because this is the first time the writer saw a dolphin attraction in the wild from the distance is short. Some of the dolphins with bersalto casually in the air show attractions that rarely happens even nothing on the other coast tourist sites. Automatically the visitors began to busy with "weapons" which brought, just to cover the scene. Cameras and camcorders also began working hard trying to record the attraction of dolphins that were difficult allegedly from which will rise. Attractions becomes more interesting when seen a dolphin exhibit little skill to participate. Moreover, unexpectedly a group of dolphins suddenly appeared from the edge of the boat while doing the attraction. Almost an hour we enjoyed the attractions, and when the sun started rising, dolphins and even then eventually disappear. After the attraction of dolphins, the guidance brings us to the locations where coral reefs can be seen quite clearly from the boat. Wow, .. look like a giant aquarium coral reefs and clear colorful fish milling around our boat. The event becomes more enjoyable when we issued guidance bread crumbs from his pocket, so we also become involved busy feeding the fish that looked shamelessly steal bread crumbs available. The rising sun and heat, a sign usailah already travel in this Lovina beach. Perahupun started walking slowly moving toward the coast, leaving the site but a pile of joy our hearts.
