Jetty is a location that will be used by the local government as a large boat dock around Padangbai. Unfortunately, development has stopped and is now a favorite spot for fishing on weekends. Fishing line, fishing net and sinker are found underwater around the pillar of Jetty, and other items such as tires, clothing fragments and glass bottles are also found.
