"The rate of hotel occupancy and tourist arrivals in some tourist spots along the Anyer has decreased due to the activity of Anak Gunung Krakatau," said chairman PHRI Serang, Handomo, Tuesday, (16/11).
According Handomo, the Anak Gunung Krakatau eruption is still out with the amount of fluctuation. Never reached 933 times the quake, causing the occupancy rate decreased 10-20 percent.
However, the institute seeks to promote the Anak Gunung Krakatau as a tourist attraction worth visiting. Some time ago some 200 European tourists look closely at the Anak Gunung Krakatau safe distance radius.
