The Losari Beach in Makassar

When you just landed in Sultan Hasanuddin airport in Makassar, I suggest you to choose the hotel near to the beach namely "Losari Beach".

All over Indonesia, there is only one beach which can be witnessed sunrise and sunset on the same stand point. "A said beach that was the Losari Beach in Makasar", usually the people from Makassar was proud of. Unique indeed. Apart from that, Losari beach is one of the most purest beach and slick that had been visited by me all over Indonesia, and the more terrible the beach is located in the heart of large cities like Makassar.


The position of the Losari coast very strategic and integrates into the city with the atmosphere of Makasar city that stretched to the best approximately 4 km. This beach can be accessed directly with the main protocol road. Crossed the road grew the hotel with various classes. A few hotels located very close to the beach lips such as: MGM Hotel, Losari Beach Hotel, Quality Hotel, Hotel Aryadutta, and Aston Hotel.
Time was most ideal visited the Losari coast was in the afternoon between 15.00 and 21.00.Most ideal time to visit the beach is Losari afternoon between the hours of 15:00 until 21:00 hours. Clean air and endless winds blew, the red sun golden cleared the face of the people was sitting on the beach lips. (photo: kotadaeng.net)
