THE reopening of Pantai Lido should be accompanied by a few public amenities and attractions so it can be turned into a tourist spot in Johor Baru.

Johor Baru Petty Traders and Small Business Owners Association secretary Mohammad Salezan Mohd Salleh said the beach used to be a recreational area over a decade ago before it was closed to the public.
