Then take the Port of Long lines, continue in the direction Lempasing, mutun and the tip of this point we're going to meet Kiluan Bay. But before reaching this bay, need to struggle extra hard, because not all paved path that we pass through.
Lempasing began entering the area, road narrows, winding and up and down. We must be extra careful when driving a car in this track if you do not want to fall into the abyss.

Afterwards we entered the village Onion, where we've been through the streets turn into a bumpy dirt roads and rocky.

After a few minutes to enjoy the beauty of nature, Mr. Johan, one of the elders in the Gulf was to greet us and welcome you with ramahnya. "Please enjoy Ecotourism Kiluan simple and it is this," he Sapa with kesederhaannya. Then we all headed cottage situated on the beach while enjoying a beverage that has been provided rudimentary. After introducing each one taking care of citizens of this cove, we were asking a lot of things.
Among them are about the history or origins Kiluan. Actually, many legends that tell about Kiluan, but there is one legend that is still outstanding and trusted by the community. Legend began when the collapse of the Majapahit Kingdom era began and Islam entered Indonesia. In the area that was originally banners or symbols of society Pekon Onion, known as a newcomer a very high spiritual power. He named Raden Mas Arya originating from Bantam or Malacca. Because of its miracle that has not been defeated, he could tell when death will arrive.
One day Raden Mas Arya duel challenged by a local resident. The challenger was a martial arts teacher from Kotaagung, Tanggamus. Knowing his end would come at the hands of the challengers, Raden Mas Arya request was buried on an island he was pointing. Because of that island where dimakamkannya Raden Mas Arya called with Kiluan (Lampung language) which means it is requested. This legend is reinforced by the existence of such a pile of stones (similar to the tomb) in the peak height Kiluan Island.
Satisfied After talking with Mr. Johan about the history Kiluan, we boarded the boat around the ocean around the island to relieve tired from the trip and then stop at the island Kiluan. It turns out to reach the island Kiluan we still have to cross 10 minutes from the Gulf Kiluan by boat. The island of beautiful, white sand, with an atmosphere of calm just heard the sound of waves, is well suited as a resting place or a place to find new inspirations. Lodging in the form of a simple house on stilts is already available on this island, which is provided for guests who want to stay. For the size of an island located in the interior, was considered pretty good inn is equipped with standard facilities.
Not only enjoy the beauty Kiluan, other attractions can be enjoyed in this region is to enjoy the beauty of dancing dolphins. To enjoy it, we still have a twenty minute boat ride to the center of the island Kiluan Ocean. There are at least two species of dolphins in these waters, the first species is the bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) with a larger body and shy. The second species is a long beak dolphins (Stenella longirostris) are smaller and enjoys jumping. But the dolphins are getting more and more decreased in number due to hunting by humans.
To protect the natural wealth existing in the Kiluan To Love Foundation founded Nature (origin), one mission is to establish cooperation partnerships with local governments, agencies, or related agencies (NGOs) in developing Kiluan Bay State Village Kelumbayan Sub Kelumbayan Tanggamus Lampung Province. And one of the founding objectives of this institute is to Conserve the other animals around such Kiluan Bay Hawksbill Turtle (Eretmochelys Imbricate), Siamang (Symphalangus Syndactylus), Hoop (Presbythis Melalops), Malayan Sun Bear (HelarctosMalayanus) and slow loris (Nycticebus coucang).
In addition to the advantages possessed by Kiluan, there are several things that must be repaired in particular: the way to the Gulf Kiluan be repaired so that access is easier. Existing facilities and infrastructure in Kiluan themselves must be improved, for example MCK (Bath Wash Sanitation) and completeness-completeness of other related maritime tourism. Kiluan Bay will undoubtedly become one of the prime tourist town of Lampung in the future if they are supported by management and sound financial operations.
