The Teman Paradise Beach is the starting point of the game and also the most popular place for tourists in Penangkapan Island. It has a wide diversity of fish from temperate and tropical waters. It contains the largest hotel along with the Aquarium. In this location, there are bicycle and kayak to rent. The player will learn how to float fish, the first kind of fishing in this game.
This location has the biggest shop on the island and it's the only place the player can buy rods, reels, and outfits. In the early game, this location is good enough for familiarize to the gameplay. However, later in the game, this location can be annoying to complete since there's a lot of fish to S-Rank and also most of the fish themselves don't worth much Points compared to other areas.
It cost 100 Points per night to stay here, which become 50 Points after the player have acquired the VIP Card item.
