View of Bagus Bay from the Bagus Bay guesthouse.
Bagus Bay is a scenic body of water on the south side of the isthmus connecting Tuk Tuk Peninsula with the rest of Samosir Island. There are a few guesthouses, locally referred to as losmen, at Bagus Bay, as well as a handful of budget restaurants.
At Bagus Bay, tourist can experience the everyday life in Samosir, as it is within a short walking distance from the paddy fields. I explored Bagus Bay on foot, walking from Hotel Silintong at the eastern tip of Tuk Tuk. It was a Sunday morning and I saw people walking towards a village church, which is the Gereja Katolik Santu Alfonsus.
