**How to Overcome the Poison of Overtourism in Bali** **Tourist Number Regulation**: The government can strengthen the regulation of the number of tourists visiting a tourist destination at the same time. - **Setting a Realistic Tourist Visit Target**: The Bali Provincial Government is targeting 6 to 6.5 million foreign tourist visits and 10 to 10.5 million domestic tourists by 2025. This target must be realistic by considering the capacity and carrying capacity of the Balinese environment. - **Regulating the Number of Tourists in Popular Destinations**: The government can limit the number of tourists entering certain tourist attractions to prevent overcrowding and environmental damage. **Tourist Tax**: The government can implement a tourist tax policy to reduce the number of tourists visiting tourist destinations during the peak holiday season. Starting February 14, 2024, the Bali Provincial Government has implemented a tourist tax for foreign tourists of IDR 150,000 (around USD 10). This policy aims to improve the quality of tourism services, maintain cultural sustainability, and protect Bali's natural environment. **Initiatives to Attract Quality Tourists**: Establishing initiatives to attract quality tourists can help reduce the negative impacts of overtourism. The development of health tourism and MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) is a government priority as a way to attract quality tourists who seek experiences beyond just a regular vacation. Local governments can also take action in regulating the number of accommodations and other tourism services, such as restaurants, so that there is a balance between the number of tourists and the supporting infrastructure available.
