Visited this place on weekdays afternoon. There are 2 kaolin lakes: the blue and green one. Both of them are amazing. The beautiful color came from mineral mining, since this lakes are former area of mining. Do not forget to take some pictures here! Unfortunately, I donβt think this place is managed properly. When I came here, there were no people at the ticket counter or people guarding this tourist spot. There are also several duck boats that look abandoned and unkempt. I do really hope that the government will take care of this place more because it has potential to be a tourism destination in Bangka.

Horrible place to visit. Seriously, is anyone even managing this place? The blue lake was good, but there is also another lake nearby that has unused tourist boat things that are sinking in the middle of it. Pretty much looking abandoned. The safety is horrendous, the cliff border fences fell off where it's supposed to be on the sliding grounds. The entry was (I think) 2k, but no one checks anyone on the entrance. No one checks the safety, so if you see a criminal coming inside with guns or knives, don't be surprised. Intolerant place. There was this kiosk that blasts the entire place with islamic religious songs, my muslim friends were even seriously bugged with it blasting so loud, I even recorded it going past 72 dB. Past the safe 70 dB threshold. There were many non-muslim visitors and they were all pretty bummed about it. It was incredibly bugging that I saw a bunch of people entering and not even 8 minutes later getting out of the place. I couldn't imagine people having big expectations with this potential tourist place have to be disappointed, like myself and these people. This place needs investigation or a shut down.

The place/site itself is nice, beautiful, INSTAGRAMMABLE, but thats just it. You only see blue water lake on one side, green on the other. In my opinion, it wasn't worth the drive; even if you live/stay at a hotel near the airport, it still takes some time to reach here - long and windy road. Heck even when I went there, took some photos, had a coconut drink, then head back to my hotel. So I was there only about 45 minutes, whilst the travel took more than an hour! Thank you for reading ππ½ππ½

Breathe-taking view...heavenly. Find the place by help of this point in the map. the blue colour of the water is amazing with the white hills at surrounding...it feels like visiting a lost land in a fairytale. Only one thing upsetting is the electricity tower which break the scenery. You need to pay attention of it and find the angle to have perfect picture. If you walk farther from the entrance passed the second blue lake there is a hill with smaller green water lake.

The lake is one of the must visit place in Bangka. The place is a bit far from central city Pangkalpinang. But the view that will you got will never disappoint you. If you want to come here, please ensure you prepare well. Because the lake's color will change several times depend on the sunlight that will be mirrored back by this lake's bottom. In the afternoon, the weather will be so hot, please make sure you wear your cap.

Danau Biru Air Bara ini cukup luas Dengan diameter mencapai kurang lebih 100 meter dengan kedalaman mencapai kurang lebih dari 25 meter, pasti tidak akan cukup dalam waktu satu hari kita dapat mengagumi keindahannya.Danau ini awalnya berupa tempat penambangan timah yaitu bekas lubang galian kaolin sehingga tampak seperti putih salju. Air danau ini jernih berwarna biru karena disebabkan sifat kaolin yang merupakan mineral tanah liat murni. Untuk mengunjungi Danau Biru ini bisa diakses melalui desa Air Bara, Kecamatan Airgegas, Kabupaten Bangka Selatan, tepatnya dengan masuk melalui pemukiman warga dengan akses jalan bisa dilalui menggunakan kendaraan roda dua maupun roda empat. Jika anda tiba dari bandara Depati Amir, langsung saja menuju arah Kabupaten Bangka Selatan, sekitar kurang lebih 75 km dengan waktu tempuh sekitar lebih kurang 1,5 jam akan sampai di desa Air Bara, Kecamatan Airgegas melalui perjalanan darat. Sayang pinggiran danau agak kotor banyak botol bekas minuman yg di buang sembarangan sehingga jadi kurang bersih. Pengeloloi Baiknya disediakan tempat sampah di dekat area kolong sehingga tidak membuang sampah ke dlm kolong.
