"There are about 500 tourists crossing," said Marihot in Kali Adem Port, Monday (11/2).
According to Marihot, if it is compared with national holiday or weekend, the tourists number is quite far. But such condition shows that Seribu Island does not only as tour site for weekend holiday.
"Last Saturday, there were 22 boats departed from Kali Adem with varied number of passengers based on the seat number of each boat," he explained.
He added, since last Saturday (10/30), only those boats which have complete documents can transport passengers from Kali Adem Port.
