Finally, made it to Pangkor Island 2 weeks ago after a month of planning with my girlfriends a.k.a
Just,
Lin and Lia. Happy? Of course because managed to tick off one of my "Island must visit In Malaysia" list,
Ngehehehe! But frankly, it was not worth at all and as my friend Just said, "
Indah khabar dari rupa"..hurmmm.
We were supposed to ride with Lia but due to some unexpected issue, Just, Lin and me have to go by ourselves 1st (Lia will arrived the next day). So, we took a bus from KL to Lumut this journey took almost 4.5 hours then another 30min boat ride from Lumut Jetty to Pangkor Jetty. From Pangkor Jetty, we took a pink taxi/bus to our hotel; Nipah Bay Villa. Check-in was smooth; no deposit required but any other special request such as kettle or hair-dryer or iron needed RM50 deposit. However the hotel we booked was such a disappointment! The floor is sandy and sticky, no sound proof and it's a bit isolated!
Tambah kecewa bila nampak banyak lagi hotel/chalet
yang more decent
yang sama harga or maybe cheaper with Nipah Bay Villa, GRRRRR! Hoop to
Lin if you curious of the pink taxi or
Just blog to see what our hotel interior/exterior look like since I didn't took any pic of it,
hahaha!

DAY 1 (FRIDAY)
We spent our time food hunting, walking around the area and also have our share of experience feeding the hornbills.

berlakon seja tu macam kasi makan tu burung, hehe! |
DAY 2 (SATURDAY)
Woke up early and went to the beach nearby taking lots of pics (selfie and wefie especially). Tambah teruk juling air saya bila tengok balik tu gambar-gambar. Terlampau banyak!!! Lol! We also managed to get good bargain of Island hopping + Snorkelling. RM15 seja, murah kan... BUT not worth at all because we did not snorkel at all! The only thing I can see was 'gamat'. No fish or coral at all and the water is so dirty and gross! Bukan niat mau hina tapi it's a fact. I thought of taking my kiddos here this June but not anymore la..After Lia arrived, we chartered a taxi/bus to take us around the Island and visit local attraction such as Dutch Fort, Foo Lin Kong Temple-The Mini Great Wall Of China and a new open gallery where they display interesting stuff/relic to public.

I heart this pic so much! Thank you Just for snapping this :D |
The trip was a disappointment but still I cherished the times and moments I spent alone with my friends since I rarely hang out with them nowadays. Regarding Pangkor Island, I wish they can do something to restore the beauty it once had. I know that it was a beautiful island once that attracted lot of tourist but without preservation and conservation it become what it look like now (*sigh).
Alright, that's all about our trip to Pangkor Island. Have a good day and week ahead you all!
Tioman pulak aa kita lepas nie moy...hehehehe
