Strategi Pengembangan Objek Wisata Pantai Oleh Dinas Pariwisata Di Kota Jayapura Provinsi Papua

“…Pada tiap kawasan objek wisata pantai di Kota Jayapura ini pun di penuhi dengan pepohonan hijau yang rindang yang membuat kesan sejuk saat menelusuri jalan sekitaran objek wisata pantai, dan memberikan warna dan citra rasa tersendiri untuk dapat dinikmati. Dengan kondisi pasir putih yang terbentang luas dari ujung pantai, seakan-akan memanjakan untuk sejenak berjemur dipinggiran pantai (Ariadi et al, 2022;Wandikbo et al, 2021). Adapun keunikan lain dari salah satu objek wisata pantai yang ada di Kota Jayapura yaitu Pantai Hamadi yaitu dengan sebutan "ombak terbang", hal ini terjadi karena hantaman ombak dari laut lepas yang mengahantam tembok pembatas buatan sepanjang 200 meter lebih.…”
