My officemates and I went by plane to Makassar, the capital city of South South Sulawesi by Srivijaya
Air from Soekarno-Hatta International Airport. The flight took approximately two hours, but please
bear in mind that Makassar (GMT+8) is one hour ahead of Jakarta (GMT+7). We left Jakarta at 6 am
(GMT+8) and arrived in Makassar at 7 am (GMT+7). It was a business trip and accordingly we need to
stay in a hotel near Sultan Hassanudin International Airport in Makassar. We decided to stay in Dharma
Nusantara Hotel II located at only 15 minutes from the airport. It's a nice hotel with a good-deal rate
and near the airport.
We had dinner at Surya Super Crab Restaurant in downtown Makassar. The restaurant is fancy and
really decent. The restaurant had a good reputation for providing many delicious, rich and tasteful
dishes. We ordered black pepper crab, shrimp, and salads which really satisfied us that evening.
The next day, the weather was not perfect but it was quite fine for us to have an adventurous
experience. Early in the morning we left the hotel and went to Losari beach.
