Petik Laut : Tradisi Pelarungan Sesaji ke Tengah Laut di Situbondo, Jawa Timur

Tradisi Petik Laut merupakan salah satu daya tarik wisata di Situbondo. Laut yang membentang di sebelah utara wilayah Kabupaten Situbondo sepanjang kurang lebih 137 km dari wilayah Kecamatan Banyuglugur hingga Kecamatan Banyuputih menunjukkan potensi laut yang terpendam masih berlimpah untuk dimanfaatkan.




Tradisi ini merupakan bentuk rasa syukur para komunitas nelayan di Situbondo kepada Allah SWT atas melimpahnya hasil tangkapan laut serta selalu selamat dari bencana atau rintangan apapun selama mereka melaut.

Ritual diawali dengan pembuatan sesaji oleh sesepuh nelayan. Mereka adalah keturunan suku Madura yang sudah ratusan tahun turun-temurun mendiami pesisir Kabupaten Situbondo. Lalu disiapkanlah perahu kecil (perahu sesaji) milik para nelayan yang dibuat dan dihias seindah mungkin. Pada malam harinya, di tempat perahu untuk sesaji dipersiapkan untuk dilakukan tirakatan. Di beberapa surau atau rumah diadakan pengajian atau semaan sebelum perahu sesaji dilurung ke laut.

Perahu diisi puluhan jenis hasil bumi dan makanan yang seluruhnya dimasak keluarga sesepuh adat. Selain berisi berbagai macam hasil bumi, sejumlah oerhiasan, dan seekor ayam untuk dilarung ke laut, terdapat juga berbagai jajanan, nasi tumpeng, dan buah-buahan, lalu ditata rapi di perahu kecil tadi. Sesaji yang sudah jadi disebut Bhittek atau Sesajen. Pada hari yang ditentukan, ratusan nelayan berkumpul di rumah sesepuh adat sejak pagi. mereka menggunakan baju khas Madura sambil membawa clurit. menjelang siang, sesaji diarak menuju pantai, dan akhirnya arak-arakan berakhir di TPI (Tempat Pelelangan Ikan)


Setelah doa, sesaji diarak menuju perahu. Warga berebut untuk bisa naik perahu pengangkut sesaji. Namun, petugas membatasi penumpang yang ikut ke tengah laut. Menjelang tengah hari, iring-iringan perahu mulai bergerak ke tengah laut. Hiasan umbul-umbul yang berkibar semakin menambah suasana sakral.


Iring-ringan berakhir di sebuah lokasi perairan yang tenang, yaitu di tengah lautan. Seluruh perahu berhenti sejenak. Dipimpin sesepuh nelayan, sesaji pelan-pelan diturunkan dari perahu. Teriakan syukur menggema begitu sesaji jatuh dan tenggelam ditelan ombak. Begitu sesaji tenggelam, para nelayan berebut menceburkan diri ke laut untuk mendapatkan sesaji tadi. Mereka juga menyiramkan air yang dilewati sesaji ke seluruh badan perahu. Sesepuh sekitar berkata "Kami percaya air ini menjadi pembersih malapetaka dan diberkati ketika melaut nanti"
